Dark Religion

Die «Dunkle Nacht der Seele» ist ein Begriff, um zu beschreiben, was man als Zusammenbruch des wahrgenommenen Sinns im Leben bezeichnen könnte. Ein Ausbruch eines tiefen Gefühls der Sinnlosigkeit in deinem Leben. Und der innere Zustand ist in manchen Fällen einer Depression sehr ähnlich. Die Dunkle Nacht der Seele umschreibt den spirituellen Erwachensprozess.

When you feel God has abandoned you…when your life just does not make sense…when you have unsatisfied soul desires…you need answers. You need healing! You have taken the metaphoric red pill; this will lead you down the rabbit hole into darkness first and then to light. Your journey in the darkness or your suffering process is your Dark Night of the Soul. Most of the great beings in our history who have a positive legacy have a story of suffering behind them. This includes Christ, Buddha, Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Oprah, Superman, and many others.

Light in a Dark Place breaks down our own desperate questions of faith into digestible nuggets, which show how to make a faith walk practical. Much of our pain is our shredded hands refusing to let go in an invisible tug-of-war with God. But we must let go of our illusions about life, our irrational expectations, and our preconceptions about God. It is the only route to relief.

Life’s painful trials can bring shame about our inadequate and broken faith. There is relief in hearing the expressions of desperation in the psalmist’s voice. He didn’t experience this life perfected, and we don’t either. But the psalmist was loved. So are we. God was so kind to give us the Psalms. To walk through darkened days is part of the human experience. To walk through them with faith, comfort, strength, joy, and hope is part of the divine experience.

Christians are supposed to be “the light of the world.” Yet we seem to spend most of our time stumbling in the dark. We want answers carved in stone, and instead we get uncertainty. We want a clearly marked path and a panoramic view of the future, and God gives us only fleeting glimpses of what lies ahead—and just enough light to take the next step. So what do we do? We take the next step.

When things start spinning out of control, it can feel incredibly overwhelming. The need to take charge of our lives once again can drive us to extremes. We desperately grasp at anything that seems to help us cope, or we simply give up in despair. But what if I told you God had a better way? That he could show you how to get the most out of the toughest times of your life? The truth is there are treasures hidden in the depths of discouragement, and this book will help you find them.

On June 16, 2016, the lights went out on pastor Steve Mickel. The sudden death of his 21-year-old son plunged him into deep darkness, causing his long-held faith to hang in the balance. Had everything he’d ever learned and taught about God been a sham? Why would God allow such a catastrophe? What if he’d even caused it? With refreshing honesty and humble compassion, the author boldly confronts the soul-searching questions we all ask when darkness falls.

In a darkened room, a group of men once sought to examine an elephant. Taking hold of a different part - an ear, a leg, the tail - each one mistook his particular part for the whole. In the darkness each of the men became convinced that the elephant was the object he had felt - a fan, a rope, a pillar, and so on. With this ancient fable, first described by the Sufi Master Jalaluddin Rumi, Idries Shah presents the Sufi perspective that Christianity and Islam stem from one inner origin.

I grew up in the Bible Belt of Mississippi, and the Christian beliefs were instilled in me from the very beginning. But my astrophysics education and career in aerospace made me begin to question just who God really is.
