As moms, as women really, do you ever feel like you just have to keep on giving? No matter how much you do, more is required of you. It doesn't matter how tired you are, you have to keep going. It doesn't matter how busy you are, more comes your way. Everyone wants more from you. It's exhausting, to say the least.
What about, if instead of wanting more from you, we began to realize that there is more for us? Kristin Funstun understands and in her brand new book More for Mom: Living Your Whole and Holy Life, she helps us see that there is indeed more for us.
Kristin teaches us that when we truly listen to God, when we truly use all He makes available to us, we can be renewed and refreshed. She tells us that "Our holiness isn't about anything we do, but about what Christ has already done."
Kristin openly shares practical tips on using Scripture in every day situations and letting God be our strength. She reminds us that we are not alone. When you have nothing left to give, Kristin picks you up and points you straight to God.
In More for Mom: Living Your Whole and Holy Life, Kristin will have you laughing, crying, and will leave you encouraged and ready to press on to the high calling God has for you. While More for Mom is geared for moms, these principles can easily be applied to other areas. I highly recommend this book for all women.

This sounds like a great resource! I wrote this week about recapturing our wonder: https://barbarah.wordpress.com/2019/05/20/recapture-your-wonder/
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post, Barbara. May we not lose our wonder as it always points us to our Lord. Thank you for this post!
DeleteThis sounds like such an encouraging book. It's often difficult to remember that our worth isn't in what we do, but in who we belong to. Thanks for sharing about this, Jenifer!
ReplyDeleteMy latest post is here about welcoming the outsider (and learning to eat Vietnamese food!). :)

DeleteI'm thankful for words that point us back to God. He is our strength.

ReplyDeleteOur children are grown. My biggest struggle was consistency in discipline. My husband often thought I was being mean when I took away privileges for bad behavior. We weren't always on the same page. It is so important for the mom and dad to respect and support each other. To let the children know they have to listen and respect the adult in charge. If you let kids do whatever they want it is not always in their best interest and can lead to major problems down the road.
ReplyDeleteI have seen this book a couple of times, and debated on getting it or not. Thanks for the review. I am adding it to my amazon list. I wrote about what to do when an injury interferes with intimacy this week http://keepingthetiethatbinds.com/2019/05/22/when-injury-interferes-with-intimacy/
