Dark night of the soul
Manage episode 351065392 series 2448568
In this episode, Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen talk about the Dark Night of the Soul.
It's a common phrase - one which describes someone going through a difficult time, particularly one in which God feels either absent or unloving.
The WADR team investigates where it comes from, and then asks if it's as bad as it sounds?
Then Megan and Michael talk to Dr Greg Clarke about two songwriters who have been known to include their honest struggle with faith in their songs - Nick Cave and Bono.
And we finish by getting up close and personal with that most faithful and yet honest of poets, John Donne.
