I’m Carolyn Cochran
Hello and welcome! I am an author, educator, mentor, mother, friend, and above all, someone who is walking the path of a widow. My journey through widowhood has led me to write my book, “Widows in the Bible: How God Provides and Protects.” The bible contains many stories of widows. He is always faithful to provide and protect us. He is trustworthy and faithful. In my book, we will dig deeper into the lives of the widows in the bible and relate them to our current circumstances.

This book is not just words on pages; it’s a testament to God’s unwavering support during our most challenging times. It delves into the lives of biblical widows, uncovering the ways God’s love and provision become evident in times of loss.
Becoming a Widow: Transformation and Change in this new chapter of life.
God’s Promises: Exploring how God’s words provide comfort and guidance.
Finding Joy: Learning to find happiness even in periods of difficulty.
Giving: Discovering how your pain can be a resource to others.
Reviews from Amazon: “Carolyn Cochran shares her journey with you. Whether you are newly widowed or have been widowed for some time, this book will help you in your journey. I knew all the biblical stories and related to several of them. My late husband passed away after 38 years of being together. God blessed me with a new mate. The exercises at the end of each chapter could be very helpful. One especially spoke directly to me! Get this book!”
“This book is an easy read and perfect in my time of grief after my husband passed away. The stories and scriptures are so relevant in this difficult time.”

“I just finished your book, which blessed me deeply. My husband died on December 27th, 2020…I had my ups and downs, but here I am. Knowing that he doesn’t have pain and most of all…his dreams came through. He died in the Dominican Republic serving the Lord, and he is with His Savior. While reading your book…I could see myself in all the stories…It is to show you how great God is…how faithful He is. So thank you for this book and for your words of encouragement.”
“Great read!! Offers hope & encouragement when you feel like you are alone in your grief journey.”
