Why am I even doing this?

January 3, 2016 alisaunwrittenLeave a comment

There is something about writing that I find fulfilling. On a personal level, it helps me process the events in my life and untangle all the thoughts floating through my head. But at the same time I don’t want to write just for myself. I have something to say to the world and this blog is, I… Continue reading Why am I even doing this?

I Used to Think God Could Love Me More . . .

November 5, 2015January 3, 2016 alisaunwritten8 Comments

This post is link-up with Sarah Bessey’s blog, whose new book, Out of Sorts, came out this week. I am looking forward to reading her reflections on how she has changed “in response to the unchanging Christ.” Below is a glimpse at what that process has been like in my life.

I wrote the following reflection after experiencing The 99 when they were in Fresno last fall. According to their website, “The 99 is a walkthrough theater that graphically reenacts the five leading causes of death in teenagers and young adults.

Fortunately, I have figured out several ways to wear this dress year round. I only wish I had a close up of my scarf… Continue reading January 2015 Pin-spired

White Christmas

December 24, 2014November 14, 2014 alisaunwrittenLeave a comment

“White Christmas” has always been one of my favorite Christmas carols, but I have never actually experienced a white Christmas, so I can’t really relate to the “just like the ones I used to know” line. The first time I got close was on a Saturday in December 2008 when it snowed all day and well… Continue reading White Christmas

A Reflection on Catching Fire

November 26, 2014November 26, 2014 alisaunwrittenLeave a comment

I haven’t yet seen Mockingly Part 1, but I want to share some reflections from when I saw Catching Fire last year towards the beginning of my year in the Pink House. During that time I was being exposed to poverty and injustice for what felt like the first time. I knew such things existed… Continue reading A Reflection on Catching Fire
