On this episode of The Deepest Cut, Greg LaFollette shares the story behind Psalm 88 (Darkness is my Closest Friend)—a hauntingly honest song born from a season of deep pain. Rather than rushing toward resolution, Greg explores what it means to remain in lament, offering worship for those still in the valley. It’s a moving conversation about faith in the dark, the power of honest prayer, and creating space for sorrow in our spiritual lives.
