WIDOWS WORKSHOP
There is LIFE After Death Workshop (Living in Widowhood)
How do you go on living when your husband is taken from you and you wish you could die yourself? Your life will never be the same; but God is the God of all comfort and wants us to live our life abundantly; even during the grieving process. (John 10:10 is the theme verse)
This workshop is not just for those who are already widows, but for those who would like to be able to minister to them or even receive helpful information for that day when they may join those ranks…because we never know when that loved one may be taken from us. The principles used in this workshop can apply to any loss one may suffer.
Marlene Burling is available to speak to individual churches or combined churches for special meetings or for a special ladies morning/evening fellowship—even on other topics. She may be contacted through her e-mail address.
Synopsis
About the books
A Morning Walk with God
Daily Walks with God
Grandma, Tell me the Easter Story
This book is a 365 day devotional. Much of it is written from the author’s life experiences. She uses relatable and practical examples in each day’s reading. You will find titles like: “Manna in the Mailbox”, and “When the Can is Opened” on these one page devotions. Metaphors and anecdotes are found throughout; along with sermonettes from Biblical characters and stories. Even some tasteful humor is included.
Each daily devotional is a short read to give its readers encouragement to keep walking with the Lord every day and to know that no matter what they are going through, they can be assured God loves them and will not fail them..
There is daily scripture included to support her thoughts for the day. At the end of each devotional are three questions (the same each day throughout the year) which the reader can ponder throughout the day.
This is Marlene’s second book of 365 day devotionals. It is written in similar style to her first book, “A Morning Walk with God” and are relatable and practical. Since these are short (usually 1 page in length) it doesn’t take much time to start your day with a walk with God and be encouraged for the rest of your day no matter what you may be going through.
Again, she uses illustrations from experiences in her own life and continues to use metaphors and anecdotes along with sermonettes from Biblical characters and stories. Even some tasteful humor is included. You will find titles like: “Hefty or Wimpy?” or “A Mighty Fortress.” Scripture is included in each day’s reading, and at the end is found a prayer that relates to the subject.
“Our God is a loving God and He will not fail you” is what Marlene’s wants her readers to realize as they begin their daily walk with God down the path of the rest of their lives.
Children need to hear and be taught the truths of God’s Word at early and tender ages because of all the ungodly things they are being surrounded by in today’s society; from the school system as well as peer pressure. They need to learn of our God who loves them and has provided a way for them to go to heaven.
Marlene L. Burling has written ” Gandma, Tell me the Easter Story, which is based solely on the scriptural accounts found in the Bible. A child’s name is to be inserted in the blanks found throughout the story to help them see it’s truly a story especially for them. Scripture references are found at the turn of each page to verify what’s been written.
The illustrations found in the book are in black and white, which also provided to the child the opportunity to color the characters and scenes; all of which will help the child to learn and remember what the Easter story is truly about
