I really enjoyed my conversation with Archbishop Charles Jason Gordon of Trinidad and Tobago on the latest episode of "The Spiritual Life." His description of his encounter with desolation was so helpful. But what is desolation and how do we work through it? www.americamagazine.org/faith/2025/0...
What is spiritual desolation—and how does God get us out of it?
“The definition of desolation is notoriously slippery,” Father James Martin writes. “It is not simply a period of dryness in prayer, which is common to everyone.”
