The Dark Night of the Soul
The feeling of spiritual emptiness, of being abandoned by God, is surprisingly a part of spiritual growth. Every Christian on their way to God must pass through their own Dark Night, as St. John of the Cross described and Mother Teresa famously experienced. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains. Then hear Dr. Bryan Thatcher, founder of Eucharistic Apostles of Divine Mercy, share his story. He was lost at one point, but in surrendering to Divine Mercy, he saved his own son, as well as countless lives all over the world.
