Probing ancient Christian practices for renewal, Almost Holy Mama chronicles one moms quest to discover an answer to her most pressing question: Can God use the challenges of parenthood to grow your character?
You long to spend time with God and catch your spiritual breath, but you find yourself honestly wonderinghow and when? Ellis gets it. Its hard to carve out space for a quiet moment with God, let alone a quiet time! Instead of adding more tasks to your plate, Almost Holy Mama will help you integrate your spiritual practices into your daily life. From studying Scripture in the shower to listening in prayer at the foot of Laundry Mountain, Ellis finds that meeting God in sacred disciplines can breathe new life into one of lifes most joy-filled and trying seasons.
Perfect for parents, gifts for expecting parents, single mother/father groups, foster parents and guardians, pastors, counselors, and more!
