Book review

Seller great to work with! Product was received in a timely manner and appeared as it was presented! Thanks!

a gem

My daughters are now 13 and 17, and over the years I have read quite a few books on the topic of parenting and spirituality. The only other book that I have read that strikes a similar deep chord is Andrew Murray's book, Raising your Children For Christ. I am purchasing several of these very readable, soul-stirring, illuminating books, two for my daughters, and the others to give away to moms needing an infusion of grace and insight. I wish it was around 17 years ago. Thanks for writing such a lovely book Ellyn.

A Must for Mothers!

I read this book with joy! No need to be a mother to appreciate the beauty of the author's prose, the truth of her insights, the spirituality shining from each page. I recommend this to all mothers seeking affirmation for their vocation.

Good News for Mothers

This book weaves a continuous thread that connects a modern mother's ordinary life with Christianity's ancient fabric. It is full of hope and comfort, and it assures mothers that God does not call them to perfection; grace is just as real in our dark times as in our light. Ellyn Sanna's personal transparency gives us all permission to be honest about our inner feelings and longings. The book is a valuable resource for all women who struggle with issues of identity, occupation, and faith.
