Subtitle from cover

The culture of mediocre motherhood -- No two good mamas look alike -- What is that to you? Follow me -- And what does the lord require of thee? -- Self-care versus soul care -- When we're guilty of mom guilt -- The profession of motherhood -- When the seat of our pants tears -- The gentleness challenge -- Training our kids in the way they should go -- The penny reward system -- Boot camp parenting -- Cultivating a peaceful home -- Cultivating a peaceful home -- We are the gatekeepers -- The birds and the bees -- You don't have to do it all -- Emotions are not facts

"The narrative around motherhood today can be a real downer. Instead of rallying to uplift each other or rejoining in what God has done in thelir lives, moms often connect over memes about how "kids are the worst." Mother-of-ten Abbie Halberstadt believes that Christ has so much more to offer you and your family than the empty validation of fist bumps for surviving another day that worldly culture brings to the table. Abbbie offers advice, encouragement, and scripturally sound strategies--seasoned with a humor and grace-- to help you embrace the challenges and see the rewards of Christlike motherhood." -- from publisher
