Faith-building Other Worlds

BLESSED BY MUSIC

I wanted to share a resource I’ve pulled together.

Life is hard–a common theme in my books. And drawing close to Christ in our difficulty can happen by listening to music.

In a startling shift of events in Trunk of Scrolls: Paths of Faith and Fire, on her way to what could be her death, Byziana asks Marcellus…
“Tell me the truth, don’t you think this journey would have been less . . . less morose”—she glanced at me to test the word—“if we had read Scripture together? Be honest.”

Likewise, we can find joy and peace on our life-journey by listening to Scripture.

I’d like to recommend some Scripture songs and have created this list to bring you peace and rest. It is a nice set to have playing in the background or to follow along by reading the on-screen Scripture lyrics.

Most of these are word-for-word Psalms (some are from the New Testament). These days, my favorite is Psalm 91, #1 and #10 by Esther Mui.

A few more things to peruse…

Thanks for your votes for the NEXT BOOK RELEASE

It was a close draw, and as I said, both series are in the works.

Announcing….

The WINNER:

The Sci-fi Fantasy Dystopia (series name still pending but I’ve called it Pogland and Immortals series) will be next-up novel release.

The Final Draft is with an editor and I have a book cover artist lined up. I’m so excited to share this with you.

Likewise, most people said they’d most likely read both. So, take a second and click below to be notified about the “Return to Me” series…

Thanks for being here. My prayers are with you.

Life is hard. I write novels that help focus our hearts on things that matter.

Yours,

Darlene

From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek Faith-building Sci-fi Fantasy Stories Hi again Reader! I’m not sure why, but I have trouble using the word “The End” at the end of a story. First of all, it should be clear that the story is over, right? The last lines of a book should already reflect an ending without those two words. But when I write a story, the character and I form a bond. Maybe the reason I have trouble ending a book with “The End” is that for me neither they nor their story is truly…

🕊️ Hope and Hope Again 🕊️

From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek Faith-building Sci-fi Fantasy Stories Greetings Reader! We’ve been in the midst of a torrent of rain here in Izmir–great for the olive trees, apricot trees, and grapevines, but terrible for the dogs. This is the second greatest rainfall in 88 years of recorded measurement. I calculated the other day to learn that there has been a total of about 1.5 Olympic-sized swimming pools full of water dumped on our farm since the beginning of the year. Wet and rainy,…
