Becoming a mother can be a life-altering experience. And not just in the ways commonly discussed in parenting magazines and on talk shows either. In particular, a woman of faith can be challenged by the significant shift in her emotional and spiritual life as she navigates what it means to be a nurturing, guiding force for her child. Our children are often walking and talking mirrors, reflecting the good, bad, and yes, the ugly in our own characters. As this book will show, paying close attention to the seemingly mundane, everyday scenarios with them can be quite revealing. Be prepared to think, laugh, and cry as you read this dynamic compilation of essays and stories that explore what it means to live and love in the space where faith and motherhood intersect.
