Wilderness Season

Alyssa Greene had it all—starting spot on the soccer team, a best friend by her side, and followers who liked every post. But when she’s cut from the team and left behind by the people she trusted most, her world begins to unravel.

Desperate to feel in control, Alyssa numbs her pain with late-night scrolling and sneaking her mom’s diet pills—until a mandatory youth retreat strips away her digital escape. Forced into a social media fast and surrounded by strangers, Alyssa is left with nothing but silence… and the ache she tried to outrun.

But in the quiet, something begins to shift. Through Scripture, solitude, and the example of Jesus’ own wilderness trial, Alyssa learns that the desert isn’t where we’re abandoned—it’s where we’re found.

Wilderness Season is a raw, redemptive story about identity, temptation, and the healing that happens when we stop performing and start listening to the only Voice that matters.
