About this listen

How can we trust God in the dark?

Framed around the nighttime prayer of Compline, Tish Harrison Warren, author of Liturgy of the Ordinary, explores themes of human vulnerability, suffering, and God's seeming absence. When she navigated a time of doubt and loss, the prayer was grounding for her. She writes: "It was this practice that gave me words for my anxiety and grief and allowed me to reencounter doctrines of the church - the church's claims about reality - not as rational, tidy little antidotes for pain but as a light in darkness, as good news." Where do we find comfort when we lie awake worrying or weeping in the night? This book offers a prayerful and frank approach to the difficulties in our ordinary lives at work, at home, and in a world filled with uncertainty.

This book is a must read

It soothes the souls and more importantly points i to our back to a good loving and compassionate father who is acquainted with our sufferings and who continues to invite us into His comfort. Tish has such a gorgeous way of communicating all of this through her own personal stories and experiences. Her writing is a gift.

Helps to answer the big WHY. Why evil and pain?

She takes a deep dive into how to cope with the hard times in life, which we all experience in one degree or another. Very insightful. Hopeful. Peaceful.

Amazing and insightful

I was aware of the Compline but had never used it regularly as a spiritual practice. Tish's excellent walk through along with her compelling story all in her own voice makes this a must listen.

Beautiful book

Beautiful book on prayer, reflections on pain and suffering; and also joy, beauty and pleasure; and ultimately God's constant love for us. Inspired me to view prayer in a new light.

Encouragement During My Night of Darkness

I laughed and cried. I realized I’m not alone, and others not only understand more deeply, but have the exact words I needed to hear! What a Blessing!
