  • Lent 2024, Day 2: Beyond the Ashes.

    Lent doesn’t have to be only slow-singing and flower-bringing.

  • Lent 2022, Day 2: No, Kiki, you don’t have to give up anything.

    After re-reading my first paragraph, I’m thinking I should give up using SAT words for the rest of this Lenten series.

  • Some Sunday Stuff: Second Week of Advent, 2021.

    Love
    So many people use your name in vain
    Love
    Those who have faith in you sometimes go astray
    Love
    Through all the ups and downs, the joys, and hurts
    Love
    For better or worse I still will choose you first

  • Lent 2020, Day 10: Love Lessons.

    L is for the way you look at me

    V is very, very extraordinary
    E is even more than any romcom that you adore

    Helping me to carry on.

"... the awesomely gifted Alisha DeFreitas... tells her story of  her brush with the Culture of Death and her refusal to play the world’s game. I love that she gives two well-aimed upraised middle fingers: one to the abortion culture of the Left, and one to the Randian Makers vs. Takers class warriors of the Right. She’s one of my heros."

Mark Shea, author and blogger


"While reading your blog I often sense a certain amount of conviction on your behalf, which makes me wonder why isn’t everyone reading the blogs of a woman who actually “gets it.”

Don, at Minus The Bars


"A curious mix of the sacred and profane...too nice for a run of the mill blog? "

Joe, my brother, author of The Blog of Blogs


"Are you really bored or something?"

Joscelyne, my sister

Reader Brooke Farmer, on this entry.


"A great outlet for such a prolific mind and an entertaining mix of spirituality and current events."
