For stay-at-home moms, it's easy to view other people's work as more valuable to God, dismissing the significance of seemingly mind-numbing, everyday tasks. In this life-giving book, Courtney Reissig encourages moms with the truth about God's perspective on their work: what the world sees as mundane, he sees as magnificent. Discussing the changing nature of stay-at-home work and the ultimate meaning of our identity as image bearers, Reissig combats common misunderstandings.

Trials have a way of changing us, for better or worse. They can humble us or harden us. They can make us run to God or away from him. Perhaps your trials have resulted in a closer walk with him, or maybe he seems far away. Often, God strengthens our faith through the witness of courageous Christians who’ve gone before us.

Where do you go when all that once stabilized your spiritual life suddenly shifts underneath you? When your faith is shaken and your leaders fail you? When you're languishing in ministry burnout? When you're grieving a friend who walked away from God? When the doubts, disappointments, and sufferings of this broken world tempt you to walk away from him too? Author and Bible teacher Courtney Reissig has wrestled with these questions. And when painful circumstances pulled down the trappings of easy Christianity and pushed her back against the wall of her faith, she had to decide.

An engaging and accessible guide to the Bible’s teaching on miracles and whether they happen today.
