I started a journey a few years ago. I set out to write a book walking through “the darkest Psalm” (Psalm 88). There were seasons of productivity. Then there were long seasons where I didn't even open the manuscript. You can imagine my excitement once I finished typing the last word. This book has been my baby and now it's time to release it to the world. The Dark Night of the Soul is now available on Amazon. I want you all to be the first to hear about it.
Below, you will find an excerpt from the book introduction. Following that will be a link to the book on Amazon. You can support the book in a few ways:

Excerpt from the introduction
This book is meant to be honest. This book is meant to be painful. This book does not follow the perspective of a man on a tower philosophically overlooking the general problems of humanity. This book is written from the outcry of one man, no stranger to darkness, desperately clinging to the God he can no longer seem to see, feel, hear, touch, or experience. Heman does not hide the darkness or sugarcoat it in this Psalm.
There is no shortage of resources on joy, peace, prosperity, and happiness. Those resources are very marketable because everyone wants happy news. I want happy news too, but I also want the truth about the other side of life. If you’ve been on this earth very long you know there is very real darkness. Not everything is positive and encouraging. The more you discover about this world, the more you realize the whole thing is corrupted to its core.
The world is broken. We are broken. And our whole life on this earth is spent somewhere in the middle of that brokenness. What do we do with that? I believe Psalm 88 is the perfect place to go to deal with this reality. So come take a walk with me as we follow our Ezrahite friend through the dark night of the soul.
