Episode 5 - Steve Carter

When we find ourselves in the dark after loss, big questions often follow: Where is God now? Why can’t I see Him here? Why can’t we sense His presence? How can I trust that God is good? Why did this happen?

The deep theological wrestlings that often arise after the pain of grief can be jarring. But we need permission to ask the raw questions. We need a space to say them aloud. And we need a guide to help us find answers in the dark.

In this episode of the What We Find in the Dark Podcast, join host Aubrey Sampson and her guest, author and pastor Steve Carter, as they grapple with the question of what good gifts exist in the dark, how disillusionment can impact our faith, and the refinement process that can come through grief.

If you find it hard to see any good in the pain of grief and loss, disillusionment or doubt, this conversation will encourage you to keep looking for the glimmers of hope and gifts of growth that can be found in the dark.
