Publisher's Description
Far too often, life’s challenges and questions cause people to fight feelings of doubt and despair, as they search endlessly for hope. In Singing in the Dark, Ginny Owens introduces the reader to powerful ways of drawing closer to God and how the elements of music, prayer, and lament offer rich, vibrant, and joyful communion with Him, especially on the darkest days. Ginny has gained a unique life perspective, as she has lived without sight since age three. She brings rich, biblical teaching that will encourage readers and compel them to dig deep into the beautiful songs, prayers, and poetry of Scripture—the same words through which the people of the Bible flourished in impossible circumstances. Singing in the Dark includes reflection and journaling prompts at the end of each chapter.

“Ginny’s music has been singing into my own personal darkness for over twenty years now. Before my wife, Melissa, died of cancer, Ginny’s music was a great comfort to her, especially the song “If You Want Me To.” Melissa even wrote the lyrics in her journal. To this day, every time I hear this song, it’s very emotional and powerful to me. Ginny’s heart flows through her music and her words, and I know Singing in the Dark will bless you.”
“Ginny’s masterful storytelling, personal transparency, and poetical exegesis help us revel in the hope we have, recover the hope we’ve lost, and lead image-bearers who feel completely bereft of hope toward the unconditional love and hope of Jesus Christ. This is more than a must-read; it’s a literary keepsake!”
“We often forget that God is not only fully present with us, but He sings over us with joy. Ginny’s new book has deeply inspired me to sing a song back to Him. When we’re hurting, lonely, or overwhelmed by His goodness, He wants to hear from us. You don’t have to be a singer or a songwriter to put words to your story as an offering to God. Ginny writes in an honest, accessible way. Reading this book felt like a scenic walk with an old friend. Highly recommend it!”
“In Singing in the Dark one of my favorite songwriters listens to some of the most important songs of the Bible and engages, resonates, and responds—and in the process encourages us to do the same. I’ve been waiting a long time for Ginny Owens to write a book, and Singing in the Dark goes beyond what I was hoping for.”
