Mothering is messy. Our joy and hope in raising children doesn't
change the reality that being a mom can be frustrating, stressful,
and tiring. But just as God is using us to shape our children, God
is using our children and motherhood to shape us. In The Better
Mom, author Ruth Schwenk, herself a mother of four children,
encourages us with the good news that there is more to being a mom
than the extremes of striving for perfection or simply embracing
the mess. We don't need to settle for surviving our kids'
childhood. We can grow through it. With refreshing and heartfelt
honesty Ruth emboldens moms to: Find freedom and walk confidently
in purpose Create a God-honoring home environment Overcome
unhealthy and destructive emotions such as anger, anxiety, and more
Avoid glorifying the mess of mom-ing or idolizing perfection
Cultivate life-giving friendships At the heart of The Better Mom is
the message that Jesus calls us to live not a weary life, but a
worthy life. We don't have to settle for either being apathetic or
struggling to be perfect. Both visions of motherhood go too far.
Ruth offers a better option. She says, "It's okay to come as we
are, but what we're called to do and be is far too important to
stay there! The way to becoming a better mom starts not with what
we are doing, but with who God is inviting us to become."
