Erin and Hannah talk with John Starke about the way praying the psalms and practicing lament help us be honest about the overwhelming grief we feel in the COVID-19 pandemic.

Erin and Hannah kick off a new series, Growing Viral: Well-Being in the Age of Corona, exploring common ways we’re responding and reacting to the COVID-19 pandemic and seeing how we can move toward wholeness in this viral age.

Our staff writers offer recommendations so you don’t run out of life-giving things to do as you stay home and stay safe during the pandemic.

In this way, the COVID-19 pandemic is teaching us that close-knit, human-to-human and face-to-face communal gatherings—the kind we enjoy with sports—still matter.

Let’s give generously to the ones who need it and the ones who are helping. And maybe, I dunno, put that giant pack of Quilted Northern back on the rack.
