Synopsis

It's unnerving, isn't it? When our faith feels ungrounded, untethered . . . unreal. When our certainty is adrift, as though an undercurrent has pulled us away from shore into the deep, into the darkness.

And if this is you—if you're in a dark night of the soul—please know that you are not alone. (And you are not as far away from safety as you may feel or fear.)

The night is not your enemy. In fact, the night is necessary.

In The Night Is Normal, revered author, speaker, and mentor Dr. Alicia Britt Chole offers a groundbreaking perspective that reveals spiritual disillusionment as an unexpected friend. Within this book, you'll explore how: spiritual pain is actually an invitation to deep love; mistaking emotions for devotion and viewing abundance as proof of obedience create an unsustainable model for Christianity; and a strong night-faith can lead you into something far more satisfying than understanding and far more powerful than peace.

Our reality is broken, but God has not changed. Whether you're disillusioned with God, yourself, or others, Alicia offers practical and soul-full tools to help you navigate the night and find your way to a livable and love-saturated hope.

I first learned about this author on Moody Radio's In the Market with Janet Parshall, and then I listened to the audiobook read by the author. She opens the book with a story and analogy that deeply impacted me...Growing up she and her father would sit on the porch and watch night storms (safely), a......more

Goodreads review by Esther on January 01, 2024

Alicia has good thoughts, good advice, good logic, etc. I would recommend for those experiencing dissapointment in an acute situation, an interruption in an otherwise successful Christianity who conflate feeling Jesus with following Him and in need of a new way. Alicia does good with helping shift p......more

I love Alicia & her writing style so much. Her books are ones I’m always going back to, this book now included. This book is basically a commentary on the experience of disillusionment as a Christian- when we are disappointed and realize reality is different than we thought. Disillusionment with God......more

Goodreads review by Mary Rose on January 25, 2024

I've always wondered about the mystery of finding books just when you need them. I came across the Night Is Normal in 2023 through a social media post of one of my favorite humans, Brooke Ligertwood. Three months later, I was never the same again. The Night Is Normal is a gem for those going through......more
