Catherine Marshall's "Dark Night of the Soul"
While Catherine Marshall was known for her vulnerable and authentic writing about her faith in God, she concealed most of her anguish and desolation during this time of loss and heartbreak from her admirers...friends...even family. The most important relationship in her life -- the one with God her Father - was severely tested. Unanswered questions, confusion, and isolation pervaded her heart and mind.
Through the lens of Catherine and those who loved and supported her during this time, this sometimes raw and aching commentary on the life of a Christian in the darkest times explores some of the most difficult questions in the life of the Christian faith.
This compelling book traces Catherine's slow agonizing ascent from her spiritual valley. With excerpts from journals and taped interviews with Catherine and additional insights from family and friends,
Light in My Darkest Night
describes Catherine's journey from that dark night of the soul to an even stronger reliance on her God. . . and yes, to the dawn of hope and trust again.
