Peace doesn’t come from pretending everything is fine — it often comes through lament. In Psalm 55, David shows us a raw, biblical pathway from betrayal and anxiety to trust and peace. In this episode, Rohan Bell explores why pouring out your heart to God is not a lack of faith, but often the very road that leads you back to it.
