Gospel Mom : How To Make Biblical Decisions And Discover The Mom God Create
$22.99Add to cartEmily A. Jensen and Laura Wifler, bestselling authors of Risen Motherhood [over 150,000 copies sold], show moms how to navigate their everyday decisions and current circumstances through a biblical lens, and experience the freedom and confidence in who God made them to be.
If there’s one thing moms love, it’s a formula. Give us the three-step process, the instruction manual, the straightforward solution for how to mother with excellence and we’ll give it our best shot.
But we all know motherhood isn’t that simple. Each decision seems to present a thousand overwhelming options, or our circumstances suddenly change and we can’t keep up with “the plan,” or we see another mom making different choices and begin to doubt our own.
All of this leaves us questioning our decision-making in motherhood.
So how can we find a secure identity in motherhood and know we’re “good” before the throne of God? By understanding the gospel story and how all of scripture applies to our lives. We need more than just to know what to do.
We need to know who to be.
Join Emily and Laura as together you explore what it truly means to be a gospel mom, a woman who is renewed by Christ’s righteousness, knows her mission and purpose, and lives free from guilt and unhealthy comparison.
As friends, fellow moms, and expert guides, Emily and Laura walk you step-by-step through the practices and thinking of how to rest in the grace of Christ, gaining peace and assurance in your motherhood.

Peace Pirates : Conquering The Beliefs And Behaviors That Steal Your Treasu
$35.00Add to cartPEACE PIRATES encourages and equips moms to stay ahead of what steals their peace and joy, so they can fully experience the blessings of motherhood, that parenting isn’t just a title; it is a treasure.
Why do moms find themselves settling for a depleted and frustrated existence when motherhood is truly one of the greatest gifts from God? Being a mom is one of the most important-yet-difficult roles a woman will ever fill. Deep in their hearts, many women believe they are failing their families, are emotionally anemic, and are utterly helpless to maintain their peace while raising kids. As a result, hearts and homes are constantly defeated by the “peace pirates” that are allowed to take away the security God paid for His children to have.
As a wife, mother of four boys, and blogger to hundreds of thousands of mothers, Ashley Willis experienced the stress of trying to be the best mom God wants her to be, while constantly fearing that she’s missing out on the real treasure.
With God’s help, mothers can find the treasure in the midst of the struggle and remain faithful through all seasons of motherhood-especially the difficult ones-and claim their peace. PEACE PIRATES will teach readers how to stay “treasured up” by first helping them identify the four stressors, or, peace pirates, that challenge their zest and contentment. With powerful personal and biblical insights, PEACE PIRATES will encourage and equip moms to stay ahead of what steals their joy so they can fully experience the blessings of motherhood.

Midnight Mom Devotional
$15.99Add to cartA one-year book of prayers to bring nightly hope and a sense of connection to mothers who feel alone, from the mother and daughter team behind the Midnight Mom Devotional Facebook page.
Mothers are often the last ones to sleep in their homes, no matter the age of their children. Newborn babies, unsettled toddlers, fear, crazy schedules, and endless responsibilities all steal a mom’s good night of rest. But the late nights don’t just wear on a momma physically. There is something about a quiet and dark house that causes thoughts, anxiety, and stress that have been ignored throughout the day to rise to the surface of a mother’s heart when the world goes around her goes still.
It doesn’t have to be this way. Moms don’t have to feel alone, because there are women across the world awake when they are, doing the very same things they are. And there is a God who wants to meet them right there in the darkness.
In this new book, Becky Thompson and her mom, Susan Pitts, bring support and hope into a momma’s hands, translating what began online into a physical reminder to every mom that the Lord is with her. Each prayer will begin with the familiar opening, “Tonight, we pray for the momma who….” In language that might describe her day, her lifestyle, or her emotions, each mom will see either herself or someone she knows in every prayer.

Showing : What Pregnancy Tells Us About Being Human
$25.99Add to cartMight pregnancy form women just as much as children?
When we talk about pregnancy, we too often end up talking clinically and sentimentally. Pregnancy is medical details and a whirl of emotions. It is vitamins and baby showers and feelings. But it is so much more.
In Showing, Agnes Howard takes us beyond clinical reductionism and fluffy sentimentality to show us how to take pregnancy seriously as hard but important, God-given work. It is not just a bodily process, she argues, but an active work of care–one that underscores the generosity and mutual dependence we all require in order to live. It is an act of “radical hospitality” that shows us all what it means to be human.
Howard delves into prenatal care literature from the Christian tradition to find images and vocabulary that elevate and honor pregnancy–not only for the benefit of expectant parents, but also their communities and the church. Taking pregnancy seriously does not entail viewing it as a woman’s only role or romanticizing it. Instead, Showing maintains that thinking well about pregnancy can help not only childbearing women but all who surround them understand how to live together more faithfully.

Shiny Things : Mothering On Purpose In A World Of Distractions
$16.99Add to cartCalling All Moms…
When the glow of pregnancy wears off and a constant stream of distractions claim your attention, it’s easy to get sidetracked from the all-important role of Mom.
Enter Shiny Things. Written by two moms who know that motherhood is most definitely not always buckets of rainbows and big bouquets of daisies–that real-life mothering calls for responsibility, intentionality, and a whole lot of sacrifice. This book examines the joys and difficulties that walk hand-in-hand with parenthood. It will help you evaluate what is truly important and show you how you can live out your calling as a mom, present and engaged.
Just because motherhood is hard doesn’t mean it’s not also good, beautiful, and totally worthwhile. There will always be hard moments that will bring you to your knees, but there will also always be God.

How Are You Feeling Momma You Dont Need To Say Im Fine.
$12.00Add to cartA Shelby Spear Title
The simple question, “How are you feeling, Momma?” wins the prize for the most loaded inquiry in the history of all things wonder. As moms, we’ve concocted a gazillion ways to dodge and deflect the question in order to avoid giving an honest answer. A trite “I’m fine” keeps the heaviness of authenticity from mucking up our everyday living.
Yet, the truth is, beneath our facade are countless felt needs just begging for healing and resolve. Motherhood is full of competing emotions that sap our energy on the regular. We often choose to ignore our feelings because if we give them room to breathe, scary things can happen. One of which is a complete unraveling of all the ‘fake it until you make it’ holding us together. Who wants to risk coming undone when we’re already on ‘overwhelmed mother’ status? But trying to side-step our reality by not being genuine only adds to the emotional weight we carry because of the missed opportunities to unburden our heart.
The good news is God is ready and willing to listen to how we feel. He already knows our heart anyway. His presence never leaves us, which means the availability God has on any given day to hear our prayers, pleadings, worries, and fears is all of time and eternity. It seems like the Hebrews took full advantage of this truth back in the day when you consider the Psalms. Turns out all the “Why, God?,” “Why not, God?,” “When, God?,” “How, God?,” and “Are you sure, God?” questions hanging in the air thousands of years ago still resonate in our heart space today.
How Are You Feeling, Momma? is a collection of 31 short reflections giving you a peek into the inner life of Shelby and Lisa as they share all the emotions they’ve grappled with as moms over the course of many years. You will be comforted in knowing you are not alone in how you feel, as mom emotions are universal to all. In each chapter, you will read two perspectives on a specific emotion and corresponding Psalm scripture. One captures the emotion from Shelby’s experience as a Christian mom and the other from Lisa’s vantage point as a Jewish step-mom and grandma.
Motherhood is hard, and the emotions moms deal with on any given day are universal. Shelby and Lisa’s words draw from deep wells of inexperienced experiences in hopes of bringing relief and encouragement to Moms everywhere. With vulnerability and a hefty dose of wit, Shelby and Lisa will:
*Inspire you to lean into and get real about your mom feelings
*Give -

This Is My Body
$14.99Add to cartKneeling at the communion rail, Hannah Shanks heard the familiar words “The body of Christ, broken for you” as the server tore off a piece of bread and placed it in her hands. And then “The blood of Christ, shed for you” as she dipped her bread into the common cup. Just hours before she had found out she was pregnant. Now she heard the words “This is my body” as she’d never heard them before.
It occurred to her that Jesus’ words spoken at the Last Supper”This is my body, broken; This is my blood poured out”-were as fitting a description of birth as they are of death. Not only do the words describe Jesus’ death, but they also apply to every birth that has ever taken place. Making this connection shifted Shanks’s thinking about the familiar ritual of communion.
This Is My Body is a journey of discovery and reclamation, of finding familiar paths in unfamiliar territory and new facets to ancient rituals. Part personal narrative and part unearthing of scripture passages from a woman’s point of view, it draws women and men closer to the God we profess, a God who is in all things, a God who is present in all genders and beyond them. Readers discover that God can be seen through the eyes, bodies, and experiences of women just as God has long been viewed from a male perspective. Using the communion liturgy and elements of the common table (where all are welcome) as a framework, the book offers much material for reflection on this central act of Christianity.
This Is My Body is about getting surprised by positivity toward one’s body in a time of life when negativity is expected. It is about finding a new relationship to the acts of Christian community through the experience of a woman’s body, including pregnancy and birth. The author approaches motherhood with one foot in the sacred and the other in the often difficult space of the stereotypes the church attaches to mothering.

Better Mom : Growing In Grace Between Perfection And The Mess
$18.99Add to cartMothering is messy. Our joy and hope in raising children doesn’t change the reality that being a mom can be frustrating, stressful, and tiring. But just as God is using us to shape our children, God is using our children and motherhood to shape us.
In The Better Mom, author Ruth Schwenk, herself a mother of four children, encourages us with the good news that there is more to being a mom than the extremes of striving for perfection or simply embracing the mess. We don’t need to settle for surviving our kids’ childhood. We can grow through it.
With refreshing and heartfelt honesty Ruth emboldens moms to:
Find freedom and walk confidently in purpose
Create a God-honoring home environment
Overcome unhealthy and destructive emotions such as anger, anxiety, and moreAvoid glorifying the mess of mom-ing or idolizing perfection
Cultivate life-giving friendshipsAt the heart of The Better Mom is the message that Jesus calls us to live not a weary life, but a worthy life. We don’t have to settle for either being apathetic or struggling to be perfect. Both visions of motherhood go too far. Ruth offers a better option. She says, “It’s okay to come as we are, but what we’re called to do and be is far too important to stay there! The way to becoming a better mom starts not with what we are doing, but with who God is inviting us to become.”

Madre E Hijo – (Spanish)
$17.99Add to cartEl amor es importante, pero el respeto es la clave al corazon de tu hijo. La idea de que las mamas respeten a sus hijos puede sonar ajena para algunos, pero tambien parece encender curiosidad. Es facil identificarse con la necesidad que todos sentimos del amor de una madre, pero es eso lo mismo que respeto? Incluso para los ninos pequenos, el efecto del respeto no es nada menos que asombroso cuando se aplica apropiadamente. Las mamas desean aprender cualquier cosa que les ayude con sus hijos. Despues de todo, aman a sus hijos, pero a muchas de ellas les resulta mas dificil criarlos que a las ninas, especialmente desde los cuatro anos de edad en adelante. Lo que hace que todo esto sea mas urgente es que las mamas estan entrenando a los padres para amar a sus hijas, pero nadie ha dicho nada a las mamas sobre como mostrar respeto a sus hijos, al menos no de una forma que sea aplicable y completamente explicada. Todos entienden que las ninas pequenas necesitan el amor de papa, pero quien esta promocionando con fuerza la verdad de que los ninos pequenos (y los grandes) necesitan el respeto de mama? No es extrano que las madres sientan que no saben nada sobre este tema. Al igual que Emerson Eggerichs transformo millones de relaciones matrimoniales con un entendimiento biblico del amor y el respeto, ahora dirige esos principios a una de las relaciones mas importantes de todas: una madre y su hijo.

Sand In My Sandwich
$14.99Add to cartYou know that thing when you’re in Walmart at noon before you discover you haven’t brushed your teeth? Sarah Parshall Perry gets that. She also gets weird things showing up in her bed, her daughter asking for war paint, and her son crawling into a giant blue sock on Christmas morning. Mainly, she gets that conflicted feeling of finding her kids hanging out in the dogs’ cages and happily realizing they have stopped getting into trouble for a minute.
According to Perry, “The hardest stuff is the quickest way to God,” and readers get to watch the systematic destruction of her carefully planned life, laughing at her missteps, aching at her tragedies, and recognizing themselves along the way. A mother of three children, two of whom are on the autism spectrum, she has experienced plenty of ups and downs, but from the chaos of her “ordinary” life she pulls the universal truths of motherhood, addressing them with humor, poignancy, and a naked honesty that will make the reader think, That sounds a lot like my crazy life. Perry helps mothers realize they aren’t alone, even if they’ve fallen off the straight and narrow of their intended path and are instead lying in the ditch next to it. Life’s a mess. But as Perry reminds us, it’s all for a purpose.
Perfect for mothers, this book will encourage, inspire, and enlighten.

Passionate Mom : Dare To Parent In Todays World
$19.99Add to cartIt is a different world and we need a different kind of mom that is ready to take on that world.
What exactly is the job description of a mom? How can the job be accomplished in a culture of entitled privilege and uncensored technology? Who is doing it right? Every mother desires to do her job well. But how?
Passion. The plan begins with the one thing every mother possesses-passion. In the heart of every mother is the passionate desire to protect and provide her child with a promising future. We must capture that passion and build on it. To do so she must perceptively study our children, ponder what we perceive, pray believing there is hope, prepare for opportunities, plan patiently, overcome persecution, and persevere at all times. These are the building bricks for parenting with passion.
Dare. There was someone who so passionately loved his people that he boldly dared to build a wall to protect them and to provide a future for them. The prophet Nehemiah saved their lives, and his story has purpose for our lives. Moms must dare to do the same for their children. Save their lives by following his lead and his passionate plan.
It is pertinent to build a plan that will save this generation of children. To do so, that requires deep prayer, discipline to prepare, great patience and perseverance for a lifetime.
