I'm passionate about helping you keep your eyes on Jesus when life gets hard.
Maybe you're in a long season of unanswered prayers, God feels distant, or you're wrestling with questions about who He is.

Through my writing, speaking, and teaching, I want to help you hold on to God's truth and keep following Jesus when life doesn't make sense.

If that's where you find yourself, you're in the right place. I'm glad you're here.

Hi there, I'm Ally! 

invite allyson to speak

When faith gets hard.

I speak to help people engage deeply with Scripture and explore what it means to follow Jesus through suffering, unanswered questions, seasons of waiting, and everyday life.

My desire is to teach God's Word faithfully, create space for honest reflection, and encourage a faith rooted in who God is—not simply in what our circumstances look like.




Speaking Topics:

Beholding Jesus, Becoming More Like Him

Walking with God Amid Pain

Meeting God in Longing and Waiting



Developing a Biblical Theology of Suffering

Writing for the Glory of the Lord

ABOUT ALLYSON

I'm Allyson Golden—an author, speaker, and Bible teacher who started Words Are Golden in 2019. I'm the author of two books, Words Are Golden and Arise and Shine, and I'm passionate about helping people encounter Jesus through His Word.





Having walked through two miscarriages, I'm learning what it looks like to keep following Jesus amid deep heartache, unanswered prayers, and questions I don't always have answers to. My own story continues to shape the way I study Scripture, teach, and encourage others in their faith.

Through my writing and speaking, I want to help you know Jesus more deeply and hold on to His truth, even when life doesn't make sense.
