The stories we read--and the conversations we have about them--help shape family traditions, create lifelong memories, and become part of our legacy. Reading aloud not only has the power to change a family—it has the power to change the world. But we all know that connecting deeply with our families can be difficult in our busy, technology-driven society. Reading aloud is one of the best ways to be fully present with our children, even after they can read themselves, but it isn't always easy to do.

More teens are turning away from the faith than ever before: It is estimated that 75 to 88 percent of Christian teens walk away from Christianity by the end of their freshman year of college. Something must be done. Family Driven Faith equips Christian parents with the tools they need to raise children biblically in a post-Christian, antifamily society. Voddie Baucham, who with his wife has overcome a multigenerational legacy of broken and dysfunctional homes, shows that God has not left us alone in raising godly children.

In Holy Hygge, author Jamie Erickson unites the popular Danish practice with the deep theological truths of the gospel. She unpacks the seven tenets of hygge: hospitality, relationships, well-being, atmosphere, comfort, contentment, and rest. In addition, Erickson shows how the external veneer of a lifestyle can create a life-giving home only when placed under the hope of the gospel. Holy Hygge provides practical ideas for using hygge to gather people and introduce them to faith in Christ.

Modern women - who use psychotherapeutic antidepressants at a rate never before seen in history - need liberating now more than ever. The truth is, feminists don't know what liberation is. They have led us into a very boring dead end. Once those fictionalized stereotypes are out of the way - whether they're things that make you gag or things you think look pretty fun - Christians can focus on real women. What did God make real women for?

Publisher's Summary
Mama of 10 Abbie Halberstadt helps women humbly and gracefully rise to the high calling of motherhood without settling for mediocrity or losing their minds in the process.
Motherhood is a challenge. Unfortunately, our worldly culture offers moms little in the way of real help. Mamas only connect to celebrate surviving another day and to share in their misery, rather than rejoice in what God has done and to build each other up in hard times. There has a be a better way, a biblical way, for mamas to grow and thrive.
As a daughter of Christ, you have been called to be more than an average mama. Attaining excellence doesn't have to be unsettling, but it will take committed focus and a desire to parent well according to God's grace and for his glory.
M Is for Mama offers advice, encouragement, and scripturally sound strategies seasoned with a little bit of humor to help you embrace the challenge of biblical motherhood and raise your children with love and wisdom.
Mama, you are worthy of the awesome responsibility God has given you. Now it's time to start believing you can live up to it.

The Lord, He is good!
I needed this, and the Lord knew it. My mothering woes are by no means abolished through listening to this book but I have been encouraged, challenged, and “spurred on toward love and good deeds”. The biblical truth Abbie reminds us of is essential and too easily drowned out by the cultural voices were inundated with.
Thank you Abbie.

I'm so glad I've found this book. It convicted me I'm more ways that I can count. I've seen some reviewers felt they were shamed... All I felt is conviction. I was that mediocre mama on a path to get better, and listening to this book blessed me so much. We need more godly mamas pointing us to God in our motherhood!

Sometimes I feel like a crazy mom for doing things differently than most, not even necessarily because I want to, but because I feel compelled to. This book was so encouraging and I felt so spurred on towards godliness. I’m looking forward to reading her second book and hoping it helps me overcome some hurdles of “hard”

Authors views are somewhat narrow/ judgmental
I often felt defensive and angry in unproductive ways while listening to this audio book. The author sometimes comes across as quite judgemental of other Christian mothers who *also* read scripture with open hands, and who perhaps are led to other understandings of how God speaks in to "mom guilt," the beauty and struggle of raising children while also positively contributing to society through her profession and other topics. She makes judgements about other women who "wrongly" claim authority in their convictions and seems to lack insight into how she also draws her own lines of what is/isn't biblical. In short: she makes some good points, but overall I found her to be narrow and judgmental in ways that closed my heart to her overall message.
