Successful Moms of the Bible

Description

For contemporary mums, parenting today has challenges that sometimes feel unfathomable. But it turns out that successful mums don't need to master the latest parenting trends, because the best parenting advice has already been written-it's in the Bible. Now Katara Washington Patton provides an accessible gateway to that biblical advice--corroborated by best practices from respected authorities. Wondering how to help your kid who's being bullied on social media? Patton shares Jochebed's story (Moses' mum) with insights that illustrate what mums have to do to protect kids. How do you use the "village" to help raise children? Sarah knew. And her Biblical wisdom is applied to parenting today. Patton shows how Mary, Elizabeth, Ruth and others lead the way to successful 21st century mothering, and she shares digestible lessons busy mums can use in their own homes.

KATARA WASHINGTON PATTON is a mum and wife, who has written and edited Christian books for children, teens, and adults and created supplemental materials for books by T.D.
