Unhurried Grace for a Mom's Heart
Author: Durenda Wilson
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781983403965
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
The blessings of life can sometimes feel a lot like burdens. Parenting, marriage, relationships, homeschooling--all these things bring with them their share of disappointments, frustrations, and trials, but God always has something good planned for us. It is imperative we slow down and listen for His still, small voice telling us what we should do and the way we should go. Designed to take you deeper than other devotionals, while not taking a lot of time, Durenda Wilson's new book invites moms into a meaningful study that will inspire and encourage. Each reading is concise, straightforward, and combined with a passage of Scripture and reflection prompts. Durenda understands the highs and lows of motherhood, as mom to eight and grandmother to four she's been homeschooling for over 22 years. She deftly weaves her years of experience into this devotional to bring the wisdom and insight she would have loved when she was a younger mom. The daily readings are thoughtfully compiled to be deep and meaningful, while not requiring a lot of time (because moms don't often have a lot of time!). Unhurried Grace for a Mom's Heart is a daily devotion that's great for moms to read through alone or in small groups.

Teaching from Rest
Author: Sarah Mackenzie
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781600512872
Category : Christian education
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In the book of Philippians we are told to be anxious over nothing, and yet we are anxious over everything. We worry that our students will be "behind," that they won't score well on the SAT, get into a good college, or read enough of the Great Books. Our souls are restless, anxiously wondering if something else out there might be just a little bit better -- if maybe there is another way or another curriculum that might prove to be superior to what we are doing now. God doesn't call us to this work and then turn away to tend to other, more important matters. He promises to stay with us. He assures us that if we rely on Him alone, then He will provide all that we need. What that means on a practical level is that we have to stop fretting over every little detail. We need to stop comparing. We've got to drop the self-inflated view that we are the be-all-end-all of whether the education we are offering our students is going to be as successful as we hope it is. After all, our job is not to be successful -- success itself is entirely beside the point. It's faithfulness that He wants.
