The Night is Normal
The Night Is Normal: A Guide through Spiritual Pain
By Dr. Alicia Britt Chole
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.
This is disillusionment.
This is spiritual pain.
This is losing hope.
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.) Though faith shines best in full sun, it grows depth in the dark.
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 these sacred pages, you’ll explore how:
- The roots ― and fruits ― of spiritual pain are actually an invitation to deep love.
- Mistaking emotions for devotion and viewing abundance as proof of obedience create an unsustainable model for Christianity.
- 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.
Your night will not last forever.
Within it, there is priceless treasure that’s simply too weighty to be sourced in sunshine.

International Shipping:
International customers are responsible for any taxes, duties or brokerage fees on customer orders. Contact your customs office in regards to duties, customs, taxes, etc. Shipping times vary depending on the country. When customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. Proverbs 31 Ministries is not responsible for any delivery delays caused by Customs.
To avoid a delay in receiving your order from customs, we strongly suggest:
- Providing a phone number where you can be reached by customs when your product arrives, if needed.
- Please do not refuse a shipment or ignore requests from carriers regarding duty and/or tax liability charges. Be aware that most carriers will hold a shipment for 5 days after arrival in your country before they return it to the sender.
We do not reship orders or refund original shipping charges for goods that are refused for delivery/not picked up at customs or orders that were returned to us due to customer ordering error (e.g. invalid address).
