Alia Joy is an author who believes the darkness is illuminated when we grasp each other's hand and walk into the night together. Her first book, Glorious Weakness, Discovering God In All We Lack, (Baker Publishing 2019) is a deeply personal exploration of what it means to be "poor in spirit." Alia Joy challenges our cultural proclivity to "pull ourselves up by our own bootstraps." while helping readers reclaim the ways God is good, even when life is anything but.

She writes poignantly about her life with bipolar disorder as well as grief, faith, marriage, poverty, race, embodiment, and keeping fluent in the language of hope.

Sushi is her love language and she balances her cynical idealism with humor and awkward pauses. She lives in Central Oregon with her husband, her tiny Asian mother, her three kids, a dog, a bunny, and a bunch of chickens.
