Book excerpt: What is the right way to mother? Can a mom trust her intuition? Or should she follow the advice of one of many parenting books? Into this fog of theory and philosophy, MomSense shines a light of refreshing clarity. Through personal stories from real moms and proven, practical advice, MomSense helps moms honestly assess their skills, embrace their mothering instincts, and develop their own unique mothering style.

A perfect gift for a new or experienced mom, MomSense is also an excellent resource for women's small groups and MOPS groups.

Download or read book Lessons from Momsense written by Audrey Marie Hessler and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-04-27 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The power of love and prayer to change a heart. A baby boomer, hippie-dippie 1960's-70's journey back to faith. This is a story about a trio of things. First, it is a message of transformation, a prodigal child's return to faith story that ignites when a mother says a prayer for her wayward child. The setting takes place in a historical time travel capsule jetting back to the youth and the coming of age years of the rebellious Baby Boomer generation. It's the counter-cultural, far out, hippie-dippie, "God is dead," flower power years. Second, this story is also about moms, mothers coming in many forms, and their momsense, that sense of a mom that could be called Mom's wisdom. Third, and last but not least, this story is about things that don't seem to make sense, like a mother's love and God's love. As a classroom teacher for many years, I assigned a journalism project, Eyewitness to History. The students interviewed someone who witnessed an event in history. Then, they relayed some key facts about the topic and how those historical hallmarks influenced that person's life.There was a 1950s TV series, and a play, I Remember Mama. It was based on the book, Mama's Bank Account, a tender rendering of a daughter, Katrin's recollection of her loving mother while growing up in a Norwegian family in San Francisco in the early 1900s. It is a homespun, cozy account of family life with its difficulties in simpler times.This is not that story.This eyewitness to history narrative is about a mother, and like Katrin's story, it tells of the powerful influence of a mother's love. But this story does not take place in simpler times. President John F. Kennedy, the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., and Senator Robert Kennedy were assassinated during these years. They were killed for all to watch in black and white on their television sets. It is the change-the-world 1960s -70s with shouts of "End the war!" The war is the Vietnam War, and most of those protesting against the war are called baby boomers. They are the children born after World War II ended, birthed in hopeful times when there was a boom of baby births. But another war begins. And if you are going to San Francisco now, it is not how Katrin described her life there. It's the wild ride of the '60s and those years repeat in the turmoil of the '70s with violent protests for peace until a President resigns and the war ends.When a prodigal child is transformed by love, and truth, and comes back to faith, when a mom's prayer and baby boomer momsense, and some other things that don't make sense lead on a roller coaster journey to know again a love that makes no sense, God's love - this is that story.
Download or read book The Passionate Mom written by Susan Merrill and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motherhood is full of uncertainty. What do my children really need? Why are they doing that? Is this normal? What can I do to help them? How can I know for certain that I am doing this right? The logistics are easy. Anybody can do laundry and carpool. But what makes a mother the best mom she can be? It’s not better scheduling. Or more activities. Or less. It is passion—the passion to teach, protect, study, and prepare her children for the future. Great, but how? Susan Merrill, the mother of five incredibly different children, has asked that question countless times. And she has read countless answers specific to a certain child’s temperament, age, or situation. But nothing she read offered an overall approach to parenting that would enable her to say with confidence, “I am doing this right.” She never guessed she would find a foundational plan—a reliable, universal parenting approach in the Old Testament book of Nehemiah. In The Passionate Mom, Susan takes you on a journey through Nehemiah and into the heart of parenting. Her stories and confessions in every chapter reveal what she has learned: no mom can control her child’s future, but every mom can parent well. There is a plan—a roadmap for how a passionate mom can parent almost any child, confidently. "...This book reaches mothers like me at both the heart level and the head level, showing us how to guide our children passionately and practically..." --Shaunti Feldhahn, social researcher, national speaker and best-selling author of "For Women Only" “Being a mother is the greatest joy of my life. My friend Susan Merrill regularly inspires me in my role as a Mother. In her book, she will inspire you!" --Denise Jonas, Mother of Kevin, Joe, Nick and Frankie Jonas "Every mother's goal is to see her children fully blossom. In 'The Passionate Mom' Susan Merrill not only outlines the qualities women need to be successful moms, but also lays out a practical, biblical plan to help develop those qualities. She provides sound advice to help in the difficult task of raising children." --Lauren and Tony Dungy
