About Shirley Corder
In her previous life, Shirley Corder was a registered nurse and busy minister's wife and mother. Following a confrontation with aggressive cancer in 1997, she turned her hobby of writing into a life-style, and has been writing for publication ever since. She has currently ten books published on Amazon.
"Strength Renewed: Meditations for your Journey through Breast Cancer," is available in paperback format, or as an eBook.
"Naomi ~ Beloved Mother-in-law" and "Eve ~ Mother of All" are available in paper-back format as well as eBooks. The remaining books in the series will be coming out in paperback soon. In this ongoing series, titled "Out of the Shadows", Shirley brings lesser-known Biblical women out of whatever shadow that hovers over them and reveals them as real flesh-and-blood women. They are devotional in nature, but each weaves an exciting story sticking close to Scripture. They make ideal Bible Studies.
Her latest published book, God in Africa ~ 90 Days in the Land of Majesty & Mystery, is an unusual devotional book in which Shirley shares many fascinating and little-known insights into the incredible continent of Africa while drawing the reader closer to the God who created them all.
Shirley is also contributing author to thirteen books to date including four Guideposts anthologies and some Chicken Soup books. She has published hundreds of devotional and inspirational articles internationally. She is also group director of CWOSA, an internet writers' support group for Christian writers of Southern Africa.
Shirley and her husband of over 50 years live only two blocks from the sea in beautiful Port Elizabeth, South Africa. They have a daughter and two sons, all happily married, and are the proud grandparents to four boys and two girls, covering an age span of 21 years. When Shirley is not writing, she enjoys making greeting cards, plays several musical instruments, and is co-director of a local choir.

Titles By Shirley Corder
Chicken Soup for the Soul: I Can't Believe My Cat Did That! will have readers saying just that as they read these 101 stories about the simple absurdities, funny habits, and crazy antics of these fascinating felines. Whether humorous or serious, or both, this book will make readers laugh and warm their hearts.
In some ways, the role of grandmother is normally an easier one, as when things get tough, you get to give them back! Yet, sometimes you can't. And mothers have nowhere to go to escape.
In this small seven-chapter volume, Shirley Corder shares some insights that will help readers to not only survive, but actually enjoy their role as mothers (or grandmothers), while also encouraging the reader to grow in their relationship with the Lord.
This book is the 3rd in the "Out of the Shadow" devotional series for women. Miriam lived her entire life under the shadow of her little brother, Moses. Join Miriam as she steps out of that shadow and develops her own God-ordained leadership role.
Written in creative non-fiction, the story stays close to the biblical narrative, but Shirley Corder brings Miriam to life in a way that will help you meditate on this fascinating woman as well as gain insight into the ways of life during those difficult years. The "Read and Reflect" section that follows each short chapter will help you relate to the story and apply lessons to your own life.
Strength Renewed is an encouraging devotional for those living in the valley of cancer. Meditations combine Scripture and stories from the author's own experience and can be read in sequential order to move the reader through a typical cancer journey from diagnosis through treatment. Each devotion also stands on its own, so readers can go directly to the entry that speaks to their need. Each devotional includes a short prayer and a Scripture verse for encouragement.
It’s a dog’s life. From puppyhood antics to the twilight years and saying goodbye, Chicken Soup for the Soul: My Dog’s Life captures the entire experience of living through the natural life cycle with our dogs, with special attention to senior dogs and grieving. All dog lovers will laugh, cry, and recognize themselves and their furry friends in these heartwarming and inspiring stories.
It is easy to see Him in the birth of a new baby, the glories of
a magnificent garden, or the joy of a wedding ceremony.
But what of the times when we don’t notice him? The difficult times?
The occasions when we don’t expect Him to show up?
In these seven devotional readings, Shirley Corder encourages you
to look for God in the Unexpected. Places such as
* the technology that has so much influence over our lives today
* the dark prisons of life
* the cold place of a cancer diagnosis
and more.
