Mourning with Hope
Episode 99:
Mourning with Hope
Hank R. Smith
March 2024
In John 11:35 we learn that 鈥淛esus wept鈥 with Mary and Martha as they mourned the loss of their brother Lazarus. Like the Savior, we too might experience 鈥渢he sting of death鈥 (Mosiah 16:7-8) as we bereave our loved ones. In this episode, Professor Hank R. Smith, associate teaching professor of ancient scripture, discusses his article 鈥淢ourning with Hope鈥 from the anthology Learn of Me: History and Teachings of the New Testament. He examines how we can mourn with hope as we navigate the sorrows of death and exercise faith and hope in the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
