treasuring christ when your hands are full: gospel meditations for busy moms (with study questions)

Christ-Centered Wisdom for the Daily Demands of Motherhood

Moms are busy--and they are looking for methods to manage the madness. From grocery shopping to soccer practice, running a household is exhausting work, sometimes making it hard for mothers to experience joy in the midst of the craziness of life.

As a pastor’s wife and mother of four, Gloria Furman encourages women to refocus and reorient their vision of motherhood in this thoughtful resource for frazzled moms. Showing them how to pursue a vibrant and ever-growing relationship with Christ--even when discouragement sets in and the dirty laundry is still waiting to be washed--this book recasts the monotony of everyday life, showing how moms can treasure Christ more deeply no matter how busy they are. This updated edition of Treasuring Christ When Your Hands Are Full features study questions that women can work through individually or as part of a small group.

• Biblical Wisdom for Mothers: Blends rich theological reflection with real-life illustrations to create an engaging, deeply rooted resource designed for busy moms
• Uplifting: Helps moms experience joy in the seemingly mundane affairs of motherhood by refocusing their attention on the gospel
