Night Is Normal
$17.99Add to cartIt’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. -
40 Days Of Decrease
$18.99Add to cart“What are you giving up for Lent?” we are asked. Our minds begin to whirl: Chocolate? Designer coffee? Social media? Forty days later, some feel disappointed in their efforts (it was a limited-time blend . . . ), some feel surprised by their success (didn’t even miss it . . . ), but perhaps precious few feel spiritually renewed.
Can such fasts alone truly prepare us to celebrate Easter? Or any other chosen time of reflection during the year?
Or could it be that before we can be duly awed by resurrection, we need to daily honor crucifixion?
40 Days of Decrease emphasizes a different type of fast. What if you or your church fasted comparison? What if your family fasted accumulation? What if your office fasted gossip?
40 Days of Decrease guides readers through a study of Jesus’ uncommon and uncomfortable call to abandon the world’s illusions, embrace His kingdom’s reality, and journey cross-ward and beyond.
Each daily, 1000-word entry will include:
*a devotional based on Jesus’ cross-ward life;
*a reflection question to guide journaling or group discussion;
*a fast to inspire a tangible response;
*a thought-provoking Lenten quote;
*a sidebar into the historical development of Lent. -
