Have you ever prayed and felt nothing?

No comfort. No clarity. No sense that God is listening.

The Christian tradition calls this experience the dark night of the soul—a season when God seems absent, prayer feels empty, and faith is tested in profound ways.

In this clip from The Anxiety Opportunity trailer, Curtis Chang reflects on how one spiritual truth carried him through his darkest season: the cross itself.

Jesus experienced the feeling of abandonment—"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"—yet remained held by the Father's love even when that love felt hidden.

That same truth can become an anchor for us. Our feelings matter, but they are not the final measure of reality. God's presence is not limited by our ability to perceive it.

If you're walking through anxiety, depression, spiritual dryness, doubt, burnout, or a dark night of the soul, this conversation is for you.
