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

Now…to the confession It’s all Emma’s Fault…

From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek Faith-building Sci-fi Fantasy Stories Dear Reader I’m still catching my breath from our whirlwind trip in England.

From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek Faith-building Sci-fi Fantasy Stories Hey, Reader! I’ve been in the UK over the past couple weeks. Today, for example, in Cambridge, I took a break at the Pickerel Inn, which is one of the later places where friends J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis had their famous Inklings gatherings. I’m anxious to share with you some of the places I’ve seen, which may also soon show up in some of my stories. For example, where we were on Thursday and Friday was like…
