If you’ve ever found yourself in a season where God feels distant, where prayers seem to echo back in silence, or where you’re wrestling with questions that don’t have easy answers—this conversation is for you.

Today, I’m sitting down with my friend Aubrey Sampson for a conversation about her own ‘dark night of the soul.’ Her latest book, What We Find in the Dark, explores what it means to hold onto faith when everything feels like it’s unraveling. And I have to tell you—her words have given me language for my own season of darkness this past year.

Aubrey also shares vulnerably about the recent loss of her dad, how grief has shaped her faith, and why lament is such a crucial part of the spiritual journey. If you’re in a season where hope feels hard to grasp, this conversation is going to meet you right where you are.
