Book Description
If you're like me, the exhaustion that is often part of being a mom cannot be over emphasized because fatigue is your everyday reality to one degree or another. You know that financially, mentally, and physically, motherhood is hard, and yet you wonder how you can still get up and discharge your motherly duties when you are physically and mentally spent. The motherhood struggle is real. However, every mother knows very well that there's much more to this thing called motherhood than the hard parts. I call it Motherhood Joy. However, we are often so exhausted that we sometimes stop feeling it. This struggle is what started the searching that led to this book. In these pages, I address this dilemma, and ask these all-important questions: How can I make this joy my consistent reality? How can I bask and revel in my motherhood joy as I continue to embark on my motherhoodjourney? Motherhood, a Sacred Ministry (Basking in the Joy of Motherhood) is an account of God's unending, unwavering, and undying love for us. You will find your own journey in mine, as well as your own strength, joy, and faith. This will lead you to a greater awareness and appreciation of the soundness of your motherhood journey while, most importantly, bringing you closer to Christ. The truth of the living words in the pages of this book will breathe life into your fatigued "mom bod" as you continue to run the race of your motherhood ministry.

Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler help you understand and apply the gospel to common issues moms face so you can connect your Sunday morning faith to the Monday morning tantrum.

In this book, Gloria Furman searches the Scriptures for the mission of God in motherhood. She opens our eyes to God's life-giving promises—promises intended to empower each and every woman as she makes disciples in her home, in her neighborhood, and around the world.

Book Description
Discover how understanding God’s purpose and design can empower you to be the mother you long to be. No calling is greater, nobler, or more fulfilling than that motherhood. Every day, as we nurture our children, mothers influence eternal destiny as no one else can. Tragically, today’s culture minimizes the vital importance of a mother’s role. In The Mission of Motherhood, Sally Clarkson helps you rediscover the joy and fulfillment to be found in the strategic role to which God in all his wisdom has called you, for a purpose far greater than you can ever imagine.

Book Description
If "Who am I?" is the question you're asking, Rachel Jankovic doesn't want you to "find yourself" or "follow your heart." Those lies are nothing to the confidence, freedom, and clarity of purpose that come with knowing what is actually essential about you. And the answer to that question is at once less and more than what you are hoping for. Christians love the idea that self-expression is the essence of a beautiful person, but that's a lie, too. With trademark humor and no nonsense practicality, Rachel Jankovic explains the fake story of the Self, starting with the inventions of a supremely ugly man named Sartre (rhymes with "blart"). And we--men and women, young and old--have bought his lie of the Best Self, with terrible results. Thankfully, that's not the end of our story, You Who: Why You Matter and How to Deal with It takes the identity question into the nitty gritty details of everyday life. Here's the first clue: Stop looking inside, and start planting flags of everyday faithfulness. In Christianity, the self is always a tool and never a destination.

Book Description
Enjoy these SAMPLE pages from Beyond Bath Time- Motherhood is under attack. Nearly one in five American women ends her childbearing years without having borne a child, compared with one in ten in 1970. In 2007, among Christians, 47% felt that the roles of marriage and motherhood should not be emphasized for women. And unfortunately, the church isn't talking about why motherhood matters, nor is it equipping young mothers to see their family as a mission field. Erin Davis was a young Christian wife who had made the decision to not have children. She had multiple degrees, a great husband, a promising career -- she had it all -- at least according to cultural standards. But most days she felt anything but fulfilled. In Beyond Bath Time Erin shares her journey to the place of true fulfillment in responding to the call of motherhood. Women will be challenged, convicted, and wonderfully encouraged by Erin's honest and provocative look at motherhood and its divine call.
