Welcome

Dear Wonder-Seekers,

Sometimes life hurts. Sometimes you’ve struggled, and stumbled, until it even hurts to hope. Sometimes you may be in a relationship, or have been in one, that has left you wounded and scarred. You wonder if you’ll ever recover. You wonder if you can trust again, even trust God again. Where is God in the face of abuse, betrayal, pain, and fear? Is there hope? Is there healing?

Find out in my latest book WOMEN OF THE BIBLE SPEAK OUT, Stories of Betrayal, Abuse, Healing & Hope (Our Daily Bread, June 2020).

I talked about Women of the Bible Speak Out and the hope we have in Christ recently on TCT Today. You can watch it by clicking HERE.

Here is what one reader had to say: “Your writing goes deep to the heart… I believe God uses your writing to show who Jesus is and reaches beyond the things we see now. They help connect me to Him and I just wanted to write to tell you that… My view of God and how I need to be as a Christian has been generally harsh and when I read the accounts in the Bible and your depiction of who Jesus is from them, my view becomes clearer and I believe I am seeing Jesus for who He is. So thank you and thank you Jesus!”

And here are some additional resources I wanted to share with you:

VIEW RECENT SERMON: My husband and I recently preached a sermon about Transforming Shame out of chapter two of my pervious book, Reaching for Wonder, about the Samaritan woman at the well. Click HERE to view the service.

VIEW WOMAN AT THE WELL NARRATIVE: What might it have been like to be the woman at the well? To see a dramatization of the narrative (by Bethany Schalesky) of Ch 2, click HERE.

Then, if you’re looking for more hope and encouragement, please join me on on my Facebook Reader Page (or follow me on Twitter) where we’ll be talking about finding the wonder of God in everyday life. The discussions can be lively, so I hope you’ll come take a look! You can also visit my infertility helps page, where you can find tips for surviving the infertility journey, advice for helping others through the journey, and other resources. I’ve also added audio interviews about my books that I hope you’ll find encouraging.

While you’re here, I hope you’ll also visit my Speaking page. I’ve included information about my speaking topics there, and I’d love to talk with you if you’re looking for a speaker for your next women’s event, writing retreat, or book club meeting.

If you’re here to buy or get more information about my books, please visit the books page. There you can read sample chapters, find helpful resources, and buy books via a handy pop-up box linking to various online bookstores.

You can also drop me an e-mail and say hello, stop by my blog to read about my latest thoughts on living in God’s wonder (and let me know what YOU think!), or sign up for my newsletter by clicking the Sign Me Up button on the right so we can stay in contact. I love hearing from my readers!

Until then, may God bless you with peaceful hours of good reading, friends with whom you can share stories, and the wonder of knowing God loves you more than you’ve ever dreamed!

Serving a Vivid God,

Marlo Schalesky
