Sarah Pattison PhD

Sarah is a creative writer and philosopher whose work investigates the cracks in modern consciousness. Drawing on the rich heritage of Christian mysticism, she offers a rigorous critique of modernity’s isolating structures while pointing readers toward an intimate, filial relationship with the Creator God. She holds an M.A. in Global Development and Social Justice from St. John’s University—a program sharing foundational roots with RIID. Transitioning from a career in international higher education, Sarah filters her work through a deeply global perspective on humanity and the sacred. She is the mother of eight children and a grandmother, dedicated to reawakening the wonder of being human and reclaiming divine lineage in a hyper-rationalized world.
