Help Im Ruining My Kids
$19.99Are you worried that, despite your best efforts, you’re messing up your kids? Help! I’m Ruining My Kids is your invitation to trade defeat and fear for hope and joy as you follow the biblical road map to becoming the mom you’re meant to be.
We all desperately want to be good mothers who produce good humans, but our flaws and habits get in the way. We’re reactive when we want to be intentional. We check out when we need to be engaged. And at the end of a long day, our minds are often flooded with thoughts of self-condemnation.
Author and mother Abbey Wedgeworth has been there too. But she has an important message to share with fellow moms: Nothing is beyond redemption–not you, not your experience of motherhood, and not your kids’ experience of your imperfections.
In Help! I’m Ruining My Kids, Abbey invites you to journey with her toward a place where God’s grace frees you from a guilty conscience, his compassion ministers to your past and present hardships, and his Spirit transforms you to look more like Jesus. With refreshing transparency, practical wisdom, and biblical encouragement, Abbey helps you to:
*Identify and accept your personal limits
*Develop realistic expectations for motherhood
*Discover how to fight against mom guilt and the shame that comes with it
*Create a comprehensive action plan for change
*Learn to parent well as a work in progressThe good news is we can change–with a few practical tools and a whole lot of God’s grace.

Raising Wise Kids In A Sexually Broken World
$21.99How can you raise your children to not just to survive but to thrive in a world filled with complex and confusing conversations about gender, sexuality, and relationships?
Navigating the birds and bees is challenging enough for parents. Kids today are faced with all sorts of complex issues, and often at a very early age. When is it too early to talk about sex? How can we begin to view the gender conversation? How do we help our kids not to approach the world fearfully but to walk into it confidently–even in the world’s most controversial spaces?
Laurie and Matt Krieg believe that, as a Christian parent, you can approach sexual topics with confidence and grace by laying a solid gospel-centered foundation from early childhood onward. Raising Wise Kids in a Sexually Broken World offers you theological guidance, parenting principles, and age-appropriate insights for addressing complex issues in healthy ways: issues like marriage and singleness, God’s design for sex, same-sex attraction and sexual orientation, gender identity, sexual abuse, and pornography.
In Raising Wise Kids in a Sexually Broken World, you’ll learn to:
*Present God’s purpose for both marriage and singleness
*Explain God’s design for sex with clarity
*Discuss gender identity from a biblical perspective
*Protect your children from sexual abuse
*Prevent porn addiction
*Promote online safeguardsRaising Wise Kids in a Sexually Broken World is a timely and essential resource for today’s Christian parents. Rather than retreating in fear, you can respond to the brokenness of the world with the goodness, truth, and beauty of the gospel and help your kids to do the same. Cast a gospel vision for your kids so that no matter how they experience sexual brokenness within them or around them, they have the tools they need to choose the way of Jesus no matter what.

– Equips parents with the grace and biblical tools they need to handle tough questions and awkward conversations
– Encourages parents and teens to maintain open communication and not shy away from hard topics
– Helps build trust that lasts a lifetime
There are things we absolutely need to talk to our teens about, but what we say, how we say it, and when we say it make all the difference between helping them embrace truth and become the person God designed them to be–or driving them away. Will they listen? How will they take it? These are legitimate worries that can keep us from saying anything–or have us second-guessing everything we did say.
What to Say and How to Say It to Your Teen is your field manual to clear, compassionate communication with the son or daughter who no longer thinks you have all the answers–even though they have more questions than ever, like:
– Why can’t I have my phone in my room at night?
– Why do I have to go to church?
– How can God allow bad things to happen?
– What can I do about the anxiety or depression I’m feeling?
– Why can’t I just date for fun?
– Why do I have to get a job?
– Why does it matter who I hang out with?From shifting views on gender to questioning faith to struggling with honesty or respect or porn, the teen years are tough. They’re also some of the most important years for you to offer guidance. This book will help you handle 30 of the trickiest conversations you need to have with your teen.

Myth Of Good Christian Parenting
$19.99Christian parents want to raise their kids in a godly way. But what if we’ve been sold a promise that “biblical parenting” can never deliver?
In The Myth of Good Christian Parenting, Marissa Franks Burt and Kelsey Kramer McGinnis explore how the Christian parenting book industry has shaped, and often strained, families over the past five decades, continuing into the present day. Drawing on history, sociology, theology, and survey responses from adult children and parents, they trace the rise of Christian parenting empires that idealize obedient kids and perfect households–but often leave parents and children feeling like they’ll never measure up.
The authors also analyze popular Christian parenting teachings. They argue that these teachings on authority, compliance, corporal punishment, and control have had lasting effects on family dynamics and spiritual identity–including loss of faith, estrangement, religious trauma, and deep regret for many older parents. This book equips Christian parents, adults thinking critically about their upbringing, and church leaders to pursue a new path of freedom and mutual respect within their families.
