In Father Yourself First, Glen offers hard-earned wisdom, honest storytelling, and six foundational principles that will help you:
*Father yourself to maintain a healthy inner voice
*Parent from a place of healing by addressing unresolved issues from your own past

Divorce brings grief, shock, anger–and many soul-deep questions. When New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst experienced the painful and unwanted death of her marriage after nearly thirty years, she didn’t know who to turn to or what would actually help her move forward. She needed to get her bearings on what the Bible really says about marriage and divorce. She also needed the tools to get to the other side and see that life doesn’t end when your marriage ends.
Now, in Surviving an Unwanted Divorce, Lysa, alongside theologian Dr. Joel Muddamalle and Licensed Professional Counselor Jim Cress, offers that resource to readers, answering the toughest questions people have about the journey through divorce such as:
*Does God actually hate divorce?
*What Scriptures do I need to know and correctly interpret as I process the death of my marriage?
*How will I know when it’s time to make the painful choice to get a divorce?
*How can I let go . . . and still hold myself together?
*What do I do about my fears, sadness, and loneliness?
*How can I come to a place of wholeness and healing so my brokenness doesn’t trickle out to other relationships?
*How do I move forward?
No matter where readers find themselves in their journey–whether they are contemplating divorce, in the middle of one, or still trying to recover years after–this is the book they’ve been looking for. Surviving an Unwanted Divorce offers biblically based, practical strategies for growing in faith and self-awareness as one season of life ends . . . and another hope-filled season begins.

– What can I do about the anxiety or depression I’m feeling?
– Why can’t I just date for fun?
– Why do I have to get a job?
– Why does it matter who I hang out with?From shifting views on gender to questioning faith to struggling with honesty or respect or porn, the teen years are tough.

Overwhelmed Mom : Quiet The Chaos, Mind What Matters, And Enjoy Your Life A
$15.99Is there a happy medium between Pinterest perfection and chaos culture?
Moms hear a chorus of competing messages. One minute, we’re told we can do it all, and the next, we’re encouraged to be “real women” who live as “Hot Mess Mombies.” Both anthems-perfection and chaos-leave us feeling burdened.
In Overwhelmed Mom, Jamie Erickson shows us how to push back against the weariness epidemic that plagues so many women on both ends of the spectrum. Through biblical principles and flexible solutions, she’ll help us learn to adjust our homes, schedules, and attitudes so that we may experience right-now relief and forward movement in common stress areas.
The Try-Hard gospel of the world assures us that if we just got up earlier, stayed up later, and micromanaged every waking moment, we can outrun our overwhelm. But no amount of running on empty will ever help us catch up. Reshaping a harried life is long-game, soul work.
Overwhelmed Mom equips women to edit their lives with intention, find purpose and vision in the work God has called them to, and create daily rhythms that will help them steward their days with delight, not drudgery. Each chapter ends with questions and prompts for readers to consider as they unmoor themselves from the relentless to-do list that plagues them.
We don’t have to keep living as overwhelmed moms-Jamie invites us to experience freedom and enjoy the gift of motherhood.

$18.99It’s time to stop trying to perfect your life and start enjoying it:
-reframe your overachiever mindset
-release yourself from overwhelming expectations
-build confidence and courage to embrace an imperfect lifeImagine a life where you’re not afraid to make a mistake. A life where you don’t link your worth to what you’ve achieved, you don’t feel like you’re drowning, and you never hear that voice in your head telling you you’re not good enough.
No one gets more advice thrust upon them than women. Overwhelmed with information, opinions, and expectations, we are weighed down with guilt, exhaustion, and the belief that we aren’t good enough . . . yet. So we keep trying to fix stuff–our bodies, our parenting, our homes. But fixing things isn’t the answer. What we need is a paradigm shift, one where we stop trying to get our act together and start living boldly imperfect lives.
Sharing her own story of faltering under the crushing expectations of the world when she found herself pregnant at age sixteen, Elizabeth Danks Robbins turns the very idea of “perfect” on its head. Instead, she shows you how to stop fearing the opinions and criticism of others in favor of creating a life you actually enjoy. You’ll learn to:
-reframe your mindset
-embrace who you are now
-trade perfection for peaceRelease yourself from the pressure to prove yourself to the world. Because, as it turns out, you’re not a perfect woman. You’re a real one.

– a must-have resource for parents who homeschool or who want to start
– from the founder of the 1000 Hours Outside Movement
– equips parents with the confidence and tools they need to give their children the education they dream of and deserveDuring the past five years, homeschooling rates have been on the rise and show no signs of slowing. But many parents lack confidence, questioning whether they are doing it right (or whether they should take the plunge at all). With so many voices offering conflicting advice, it’s hard to know where to start and where to go from there.

– learning through living
– allowing for individual timelines
– leaving space for boredom
– providing multiage experiences
– teaching self-reliance
– offering freedom
– slowing down
– and moreIf you’ve been on the fence about homeschooling or wondering if you’re doing it all wrong, let Ginny encourage you in all you’ve already accomplished and equip you for even greater things ahead.

Ann Wilson spent more than a decade longing for a better marriage and for her husband to be more attentive, more involved, more helpful, and just all-around better. And every chance she got, she told him so. Where she thought she was being helpful, she was instead badgering him with constant critiques until all he heard was, “Boo! Boo!” when they were together. It almost broke their marriage. But Ann discovered the power that God has given wives.
No matter how long you’ve been married, you don’t need to spend another minute hoping and wishing for things to be different. They can! And the power is in your hands.
In this motivating, honest new book, Ann–marriage coach and bestselling author with her husband, Dave–shares how she breathed new life into her marriage by stewarding one of the most powerful gifts believers inherit from the Creator: encouragement. God has given wives a superpower to influence their husbands and homes, and you can use that power to build up and encourage your man to be a better husband, father, and man of God while still speaking truth to him. Relatable, encouraging, biblical, and funny, Ann shares stories from her own life, as well as valuable insights from Scripture, to help you:
*Address the ways you process and justify your communication patterns
*Seek spiritual and relational (re)alignment with both your husband and God
*Learn to exercise self-control and demonstrate radical grace in conversations with your husband
*Begin to cheer more than boo–in a way that isn’t put on, fake, or inauthentic
*Learn to speak truth in a way your husband can really hear you
*And, ultimately, cultivate a grace-based marriage that thrives
Real people in real relationships have real problems, but with God’s help, you can heal and sustain your marriage for a lifetime.
