Trauma often disrupts a person's faith in God. At times, it even causes people to feel as though they have lost their faith in God altogether.

Making Friends with Darkness joins the ongoing conversation about PTSD and moral injury recovery with an approach from the Scriptures, providing a plan that is non-formulaic, helps people heal from their trauma, and helps remove barriers to God.

Nick Hamilton offers a unique walk through the Psalms and other Scriptures with an invitation to wrestle with your questions and to wrestle with God along the way. It is a companion in the deepest and most difficult moments of life. Making Friends with Darkness hopes to "bind up the brokenhearted," walking with those who experience trauma and loss.
