Encouragement for weary mamas
Sara knows what it's like to be in the trenches.  She speaks with honesty about the struggles to raise children that truly love God and aren't just going through the motions.  She walks mamas through how to consistently point our kids to the gospel and reminds us that we are ALL sinners (mamas and kids, too) and shouldn't be surprised by sinful behavior.  &#34;Once you make that subtle shift from pointing your children to the gospel to pointing them to their failure to meet your own expectations, you've put them on a dangerous path.  Yes, they might obey, but it won't be for the right reasons.&#34;  An important reminder for this mama who often feels like I'm beating my head against a wall.  I laughed and cried as I worked my way through this study.  It would work well as a small group study, although it also works beautifully as an individual study.  Definitely one I will be revisiting again and again.
