My Nonfiction Books

Enrich your prayer time and enhance your heartfelt connection with God with an all-new daily devotional unlike any you’ve seen before. In the simple yet powerful format of Pray a Word Volume 2 you’ll be encouraged each day with:

A word to focus on

A subject to pray about

And a blessing to receive.

Like its best-selling predecessor Pray a Word a Day, Pray a Word a Day Volume 2 will make your prayer life more fulfilling than ever before. It is a non-dated, 365-day book that invites you to connect with God in ways that will inspire and uplift you—while giving your prayer practice a fresh boost.

Each day’s entry presents a single word such as “precious,” “answer,” “hear,” “forget,” or “breath” as a focal point. Then, the meaning of the word is further illuminated with an inspiring and motivating quote or Scripture that is sure to stir your soul. That is followed by a heartfelt, personal, and lighthearted 2-minute reflection, and a prayer written by one of our gifted Guideposts writers.

You’ll be amazed at how Pray a Word a Day Volume 2 will awaken your spirit and help you feel spiritually grounded throughout your day. Centering your prayer and praise around a single word, will get you thinking in new ways and help you discover fresh enthusiasm in your daily devotional practice.

Now in print and kindle: Lighthouse Devotions – 52 Inspiring Lighthouse Stories.Now you can take your lighthouse devotions with you. Over fifty beautiful color photos accompany interesting tidbits of information about lighthouses along with a devotional. These devotions were based on many past posts on the lighthouse blog.

“A very inspirational devotional, thoughtfully researched and written by Marilyn Turk. Marilyn interweaves the history of each light house and relates this often times to a verse in the Bible. As her research suggests, the Lighthouse and its history evokes a closeness to God. A highly recommend read for those who love the water and love Christ.”

“Marilyn Turks “Lighthouse Devotions” are historical and well photographed. Each lighthouse has a special story that Marilyn ties in to messages that God teaches us. It is a great way to start each day with a boost of inspiration! It would be great to see additional volumes including more light houses throughout the world.”
