You Bet Your Stretch Marks
$22.99Bestselling author Abbie Halberstadt offers encouragement and insight for mamas struggling to remain engaged and hopeful amid the challenges of motherhood.
It’s easy to be grateful for motherhood when your child is writing “best mama ever” on your birthday card or giving you a great, big hug. But how about when you’re scrubbing crayon marks off the wall for the third time in a week or tussling with your teen about curfew . . . again?
The all-in enterprise called parenting will test your patience and stretch your capacity like nothing else, but mama-of-ten Abbie Halberstadt is here to remind you that having children is a calling you should never, ever regret or apologize to anyone for.
With her trademark candor, relatable humor, and biblically based insight, Abbie will help you keep your eyes fixed on Jesus as you navigate the sometimes-murky waters of motherhood.
Even with an eyes-up approach, will you still struggle? Yep.
Will it be painful and hard at times? Without a doubt.
But will it be worth it? For you? For them? You bet your stretch marks!

Motherhood Is Not Your Highest Calling: The Grace Of Being A Good-enough Mo
$18.99Sometimes it can be hard to remember that you are more than a mom.
Do this. Don’t do that. Try this parenting strategy. Read this book. Many mothers desire to be the best mom possible, but the pressure can feel overwhelming. Even at church, many of us are being taught that “motherhood is a woman’s highest calling.”
While valuing mothers is important, idolizing or idealizing the role places unsustainable pressures and stress on moms and causes us to miss living out of our primary identity in Christ.
In Motherhood Is (Not) Your Highest Calling, Vicki Courtney invites moms to reconsider the widely held belief that motherhood defines your identity. With heartfelt honesty drawn from her experiences as a mother and grandmother, Vicki encourages you to embrace an emotionally healthy, “good enough” mentality and let go of the unrealistic expectations that weigh heavily on mothers.
Motherhood Is (Not) Your Highest Calling will encourage you to:
*Challenge the Myth of Perfection Discover how to release yourself from the unrealistic standards of perfectionism that are held up for Christian mothers;
*Understand Church Influences Gain insight into how traditional narratives have shaped women’s expectations in faith communities;
*Learn from Personal Stories: Benefit from Courtney’s own experiences and reflections on motherhood;
*Embrace Being “More than a Mom” Recognize the value of your worth and purpose beyond motherhood; and

Overwhelmed Mom : Quiet The Chaos, Mind What Matters, And Enjoy Your Life A
$15.99Is there a happy medium between Pinterest perfection and chaos culture?
Moms hear a chorus of competing messages. One minute, we’re told we can do it all, and the next, we’re encouraged to be “real women” who live as “Hot Mess Mombies.” Both anthems-perfection and chaos-leave us feeling burdened.
In Overwhelmed Mom, Jamie Erickson shows us how to push back against the weariness epidemic that plagues so many women on both ends of the spectrum. Through biblical principles and flexible solutions, she’ll help us learn to adjust our homes, schedules, and attitudes so that we may experience right-now relief and forward movement in common stress areas.
The Try-Hard gospel of the world assures us that if we just got up earlier, stayed up later, and micromanaged every waking moment, we can outrun our overwhelm. But no amount of running on empty will ever help us catch up. Reshaping a harried life is long-game, soul work.
Overwhelmed Mom equips women to edit their lives with intention, find purpose and vision in the work God has called them to, and create daily rhythms that will help them steward their days with delight, not drudgery. Each chapter ends with questions and prompts for readers to consider as they unmoor themselves from the relentless to-do list that plagues them.
We don’t have to keep living as overwhelmed moms-Jamie invites us to experience freedom and enjoy the gift of motherhood.

Youre Still A Good Mom
$15.99We must surrender our motherhood to the One who never fails–even though we often fail.
Motherhood is a gift. It’s beautiful and meaningful work. But raising imperfect humans can also be exhausting and leave you depleted. Social media has only increased the pressure to look good and be the perfect mom. But what is a “good” mom? And why does it seem like the lives of others are shinier and easier than yours? Fellow mom and friend Hallie Dye understands the motivation to be a mom who never fails (yet feels like she’s always failing).
In You’re Still a Good Mom, Hallie dismantles our faulty expectations of motherhood and replaces them with an understanding of who you are in Christ and who He calls you to be. Raising kids brings out our weaknesses. You can feel as though no matter how hard you try, you’re not the mom you imagined you’d be.
Hallie shows the way of surrendering motherhood. Through real life stories and a biblical foundation, readers learn how to navigate failures so that they can raise children who see their need for a good and perfect Savior. Writing on truth, compassion, grief, grace, dreams, and much more, the author speaks to moms right where they’re at. You will find real hope in what God defines as faithful and good and be robustly affirmed that You’re Still a Good Mom.

Wherever You Are
$16.99Wherever you are, whatever you have–it matters to God.
Often motherhood is when we need God the most, and yet have the least amount of time to spend with him. But just as we desire to love and meet the needs of our children, so also our Heavenly Father longs to do the same for us. Too often our time limitations – and the guilt that comes with them – have kept us from his arms and his transforming power. But the truth is, God knows the season of your life and sees your heart.
Our few minutes are precious to God, and when we give them to him, they become more than enough. In the devotional Wherever You Are, popular author Emily Assell brings us on a journey of discovering the power of declaring God’s truth–over your mama heart, your family, your parenting, and the life you’ve been given. Each of these devotions include:
*Scripture reflection,
*Encouragement, strength, and hope for the day ahead,
*Declarations based on Scripture to speak over yourself and your family,
*Prompts for praise, thanksgiving, and prayer.When we learn to make his words our own and join them with faith, miracles can occur. Intentionally declaring God’s truth changes not only our lives but our hearts as well. We remember that all things, even our mothering, are done in and by him. Simply give what you have, and he will meet you wherever you are.
A great Mother’s Day gift or birthday or baby shower gift for moms!

Derived from Psalm 121, these 40 devotions will help you lift your eyes from motherhood’s trials and fix them upon God’s character and strength.

$19.99Rachael Elmore, a mother of two and a licensed mental health counselor who specializes in treating postpartum depression and anxiety, comes alongside new moms and gives them the practical tools and biblical wisdom they need to take care of themselves and become the connected and emotional healthy mothers God designed them to be.
Most new moms know that the first year is going to be to be full of joys and challenges, peaks and valleys. But even though they’ve prepared themselves as much as they can, they still find themselves thinking, I knew this was going to be hard. But will it always be this hard? This wasn’t what I was expecting, what if I don’t know how to take care of this baby–or myself?
Rachael Elmore has been there and knows on a personal and professional level how hard the early days and months of motherhood can be. In A Mom Is Born she takes her expertise as a licensed and clinical counselor and pairs it with her deeply personal story of overcoming postpartum depression after the birth of her first son. She comes alongside readers with practical tools–such as the New Mom Wellness Plan and a postpartum progress checklist–to help find the balance between taking care of their new baby and taking care of themselves. Using scripture and therapeutic insights, Elmore shows mothers how to:

If Mama Aint Happy
$17.99Are you weary? Stressed? Depressed, anxious, and annoyed? And, to top it all off, do you feel guilty for feeling bad? Rachel Norman gets you, mama. She knows how much you love your kids. And how, day after day, you put your family’s needs first, which means your own needs come last. Or don’t come at all.
Rachel used to be a mom who spent her days weary, anxious, and guilt laden. She had five kids in five years, lived on three different continents, and then was blindsided by a devastating health diagnosis. Neglecting her own physical, spiritual, mental, and emotional needs for so long–in an effort to be a selfless mother–had left her utterly depleted. And physically unwell. Then she began asking a question she’d never considered before: Could it be that taking good care of myself is not actually selfish, but maybe, just maybe, something a responsible adult does? In this countercultural book, Rachel takes some weight off your shoulders by:
*offering hands-on, rubber-meets-the-road strategies to cultivate a life you aren’t trying to constantly escape
*teaching you to discover and claim your own limits and boundaries so you can be a calm, resilient, peaceful mother
*showing you how to shape your daily life and values around the few things that really matter, and how to let the rest go
If mama ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy. But when mama is at peace? Everyone benefits.

Everyday Prayers For The School Year
$14.99Moms know all too well that God doesn’t promise an easy road for us–or our kids. As much as we’d love to protect them from heartaches, it just isn’t possible. This is especially true during the school year, when they are introduced to new teachers, new classmates, new concepts, and maybe even a new school that seems big and frightening.
Jesus tells us, “In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). With this reassurance, we try to reassure our children that no matter what, God is there and He’s on their side.
And we pray.
In Everyday Prayers for the School Year, author Tara L. Cole offers devotional readings and opportunities for mothers to pray for many issues concerning their children, such as:
*Are they making godly friends?
*Are their teachers kind and caring?
*Can they make wise choices in bad situations?
*Will they commit to studying?
*Are they being targeted by bullies?
*If they are unprepared for a test, will they trust God or cheat?No matter what our kids are facing during the school year, we can’t go wrong when we pray and teach them to pray too.
Our prayer is that they ultimately trust Him for their salvation, but even after they become Christians, they have the daily choice to trust God when they feel like they are standing alone and the circumstances look impossible.
Tara says, “My hope for this journal is that it will help moms turn their worry about their children’s school year into hope, that they take their concerns to God and walk away confident that He loves our kids more than we do. And He is in control.”

Expect Something Beautiful
$14.99Is motherhood only about self-sacrifice? Or will it bless your life, too?
You know that motherhood makes high demands. Yet you know it’s worth the cost because it benefits your child. On some grand level, it’s also good for civilization. And of course, it’s a calling from God. So is that what you’re doing here–pouring out your life for God and others while getting little in return except the consolation that you’ve done the right thing?
Laura Booz wants you to expect something more out of motherhood–something truly beautiful. You might be asking: Will I lose myself in motherhood? Compromise my career? Squander my potential? What’s the point of all that unseen (and uncelebrated) serving, cleaning, caring, snuggling, discipling, and praying? Laura wants to help you see that behind all the giving that mothers do is the receiving of something special and unique–a growth in God that only mothers can know.
Let this book give you a renewed vision of motherhood: to see God’s good purpose for you as a mother, a woman, and a follower of Christ.

Rooms Of A Mothers Heart
$16.99For thousands of years and in a myriad of cultures, women have forged identity, unconditional love, and vast purpose in the calling of motherhood. From Eve to Sarah, from Ruth to Mary, the Scriptures are filled with the accounts of the heart of a mother who was given a divine opportunity to raise the next generation for the purposes and call of the Father.
Inside the soul of every mother lies a heart that becomes a repository of sweet memories, hard lessons, glorious victories, ordinary days, glaring failures, and God’s grace over the years of mothering. The heart of a mother becomes home to jokes around the dinner table, holiday traditions, the tears of childhood, and the love that only a mother knows. And this tender heart that has given birth to the future of mankind or has lovingly adopted the seeds of the next generation also develops rooms of unsurpassed greatness and quiet strength. These are the Rooms of a Mother’s Heart.
With her characteristic charm, joy, and biblical teaching that she shares like a good friend over a cup of coffee, Carol McLeod examines what it means to be a mother and offers tender encouragement to all women who accept that calling.

End Of Me

There are many books on motherhood but not many that talk about how hard it is – physically, mentally and spiritually – and what to do when you reach your limits.

“Coming to the end of who I was, and what motherhood was stripping me of, was a good thing that drove me to Christ and to the power that he supplies in every failure and weakness of motherhood.” Liz Wann.
This short, easy-to-read book encourages mothers to depend on Christ when they reach the end of themselves. They will find that God will supply what they need to cope with the daily sacrifices and challenges of motherhood, and that he will use these struggles to make them more like Christ.

Longing For Motherhood
$14.99When hopes for motherhood are deferred…
Childlessness remains a taboo topic in today’s culture, especially in Christian circles. Many women feel isolated, ashamed, or uncertain of how to reconcile this trial with a loving God. The death of the dream of motherhood–whether from infertility, barrenness, miscarriage, or the loss of a child–is one of the hardest journeys women can walk through.
In Longing for Motherhood, Chelsea Patterson speaks to these burdens specifically. She shares vulnerably about her own journey of childlessness and how she has ultimately come to view her story through the lens of Scripture and our hope in Christ. While remaining tender and empathetic toward suffering and longing, she discusses the comfort we have in knowing that the Lord is sovereign over all, and that His love is sufficient to carry us through any and every situation.
A timely book for women struggling with childlessness, as well as for pastors, friends, and family who want to care for them well, Longing for Motherhood is a tender, truthful companion for a difficult journey.

Holy Labor : How Childbirth Shapes A Woman’s Soul
$18.99Women are valued for their ability to bear children in many cultures. The birth process, though supposedly the most painful experience of a woman’s life, is seen as a necessary evil to achieve the end goal of children and motherhood.
And yet, in the face of a typically masculinized Christianity that nevertheless professes that women are equally created in the image of God, shouldn’t childbirth–a uniquely feminine experience–itself shape Christian women’s souls and teach them about the heart of the God they love and follow?
Drawing on her own experience of giving birth and motherhood–and the conflicting assumptions attached to them, by Christians and the culture at large–Aubry G. Smith presents a richly scriptural exploration of common conceptions about pregnancy and childbirth that will not only help mothers and soon-to-be mothers understand how to think biblically about birth, but also walks them through how to put the ideas into practice in their own lives. Along the way, she shows all readers how to see God’s own experience of the birth process–and how childbirth leads to a deeper understanding of the gospel overall.
