Does it ever feel like you’re calling God and he’s just not picking up? Have you ever believed God loves you in your head, but not in your heart? Has this head/heart gap lasted a long time, felt hopeless, or caused feelings of guilt and despair? If so, you might actually be right where God wants you. In this episode John, Shay, and Austin discuss the specifics of what the “silence of God” is, relate stories and scriptures about when God feels distant and describe experiences of dark nights of the soul. This stage of your spiritual growth may feel like a desert, the wilderness or a valley and you may wonder how you will survive this painful season. But we want to encourage you that there may be more happening behind the scenes even when God seems unresponsive to your pain.
