Darlene Zschech's New Book 'The Golden Thread' Chronicles Her Battle With Cancer; New Christmas Album Out Now
Renowned worship leader, singer-songwriter, and cancer survivor Darlene Zschech has announced the release of her highly-anticipated new book "The Golden Thread: Experiencing God's Presence in Every Season of Life," available now from Thomas Nelson's Emanate Books, a division of HarperCollins Christian Publishing. Featuring a foreword by New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer, the title chronicles Zschech's 2013 battle with cancer and how maintaining a posture of worship before the Lord brought her peace in the midst of the storm.
"My hope and prayer is that this book will help bring a calm to your storm, hope to your own doubts, and love to your own fears, because there is not one of us who is immune to seasons that challenge us and stretch us beyond what we feel we can bear," Zschech shares in the book's introduction. "But neither is there one of us who is exempt from the love of God that flows toward us, no matter what opposition we are facing, no matter what season of life we find ourselves in."
She adds, "It is true that there are some things about God and how He is at work in the world and in us that we will never really understand until we have come to the end of ourselves. But the greatest thing we all need to remember about our God is that He is good."
The book also explores other life-altering events for Zschech, including the journey to plant Hope Unlimited Church (HopeUC) with her husband Mark in New South Wales, Australia. Whether through a health crisis or her family's relocation to a new city, Zschech demonstrates a willingness to follow the Holy Spirit as He divinely connects each of her life's circumstances.
"May you be encouraged as you read 'The Golden Thread,' and may the sweet Holy Spirit nudge you along the way to help you understand the love and grace He has for you in the season you are walking in right now," she encourages.
In addition to her new book, Zschech's in October released her latest Integrity Music recording, The Table: A Christmas Worship Gathering, is now available everywhere. Featuring HopeUC, the album is a warm collection of Christmas classics and original songs, encouraging listeners to "build longer tables and lower walls," welcoming all to Jesus.
