When we go through a traumatic loss, we depend on faith more than ever. But sometimes, our
faith seems to vanish when we need it most. Gina Donovan had this lonely experience after
suddenly losing the love of her life, when, during the darkest days of loss, she couldn't feel God's
presence anymore.
Many people who have had this experience never tell anyone about it. Listen as she bravely
opens up with her pastor about what it felt like to be without her husband and without God, and
how she is finding her footing on the path once again.
Gina was not alone in feeling this way. For more information on this experience,
what St. John of the Cross famously termed as "The Dark Night of the Soul,"
