Motherhood Is Not Your Highest Calling: The Grace Of Being A Good-enough Mo
$18.99Sometimes it can be hard to remember that you are more than a mom.
Do this. Don’t do that. Try this parenting strategy. Read this book. Many mothers desire to be the best mom possible, but the pressure can feel overwhelming. Even at church, many of us are being taught that “motherhood is a woman’s highest calling.”
While valuing mothers is important, idolizing or idealizing the role places unsustainable pressures and stress on moms and causes us to miss living out of our primary identity in Christ.
In Motherhood Is (Not) Your Highest Calling, Vicki Courtney invites moms to reconsider the widely held belief that motherhood defines your identity. With heartfelt honesty drawn from her experiences as a mother and grandmother, Vicki encourages you to embrace an emotionally healthy, “good enough” mentality and let go of the unrealistic expectations that weigh heavily on mothers.
Motherhood Is (Not) Your Highest Calling will encourage you to:
*Challenge the Myth of Perfection Discover how to release yourself from the unrealistic standards of perfectionism that are held up for Christian mothers;
*Understand Church Influences Gain insight into how traditional narratives have shaped women’s expectations in faith communities;
*Learn from Personal Stories: Benefit from Courtney’s own experiences and reflections on motherhood;
*Embrace Being “More than a Mom” Recognize the value of your worth and purpose beyond motherhood; and
*Explore Biblical Insights Find guidance for understanding your identity in Christ.
In a world dominated by social media portrayals of picture-perfect parenting, embrace your complete who you are in Christ.

Youre Still A Good Mom
$15.99We must surrender our motherhood to the One who never fails–even though we often fail.
Motherhood is a gift. It’s beautiful and meaningful work. But raising imperfect humans can also be exhausting and leave you depleted. Social media has only increased the pressure to look good and be the perfect mom. But what is a “good” mom? And why does it seem like the lives of others are shinier and easier than yours? Fellow mom and friend Hallie Dye understands the motivation to be a mom who never fails (yet feels like she’s always failing).
In You’re Still a Good Mom, Hallie dismantles our faulty expectations of motherhood and replaces them with an understanding of who you are in Christ and who He calls you to be. Raising kids brings out our weaknesses. You can feel as though no matter how hard you try, you’re not the mom you imagined you’d be.
Hallie shows the way of surrendering motherhood. Through real life stories and a biblical foundation, readers learn how to navigate failures so that they can raise children who see their need for a good and perfect Savior. Writing on truth, compassion, grief, grace, dreams, and much more, the author speaks to moms right where they’re at. You will find real hope in what God defines as faithful and good and be robustly affirmed that You’re Still a Good Mom.

Gospel Mom : How To Make Biblical Decisions And Discover The Mom God Create
$22.99Emily 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.
