I’m so excited! It’s like my friends are having a baby today, but instead it’s a book! And this new book is an important one for every mom.
Brooke McGlothlin {my MOB Society cofounder} and Stacey Thacker released Hope for the Weary Mom a few years ago as a self-published ebook, then in paperback. It was a powerful read for myself and for many other mamas. And a publisher took notice.
Today, Hope for the Weary Mom is releasing again, but this time with TONS of new, hope-filled content and coming from Harvest House Publishers! This calls for a happy dance!
Friends, I am the weary mom they wrote this book for {not specifically me, but you know what I mean} and I’m guessing many of you would say the same. It’s ok. Mothering is hard, holy work. Just because you’re weary doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong. Brooke and Stacey have written a powerful message to help you and I refocus and find the source of true hope in the middle of motherhood.
This isn’t one of those motherhood books that tells what you should and shouldn’t be doing. I can’t read those books. This book is like coffee date with two real moms who go through the same things as you. They have found a perspective and lifeline of hope in Jesus and they’re offering it to you with love.
One of my very favorite lines from the whole book is something I need to memorize and internalize…
“Our kids need moms who will get up, dust themselves off, and cast their nets one more time.”
That speaks right to where I am as a mom. Sometimes, after going several rounds with the kiddos, I just want to throw in the towel. But that is not what hope would do. Hope never gives up, just as Jesus never gives up on me.
“When you cling to the end of our rope, we pray you see him. He is your shelter. He will support you. He is the answer. He is Hope for the Weary Mom. ”
Please, dear mom friends, get this book for yourself today. Let the truth of it sink in to your hearts. Go through it with a small group. You are not alone in being weary, but together, we can find and CHOOSE hope!
*****
For a very limited time, when you purchase your copy of Hope for the Weary Mom anywhere books are sold, you can get three free videos from Stacey and Brooke giving you a behind-the-scenes look at how they personally overcome weariness and choose to live a hope-filled life.
In the videos, they’re allowing you a look into their private lives, sharing specific examples of those weary moments all moms have and how to find hope in the midst of it.
It’s like having two friends walk along-side you as you figure out this motherhood thing…and I couldn’t have picked two better friends for this job!
Brooke and Stacey, THANK YOU for writing this book and spreading this life-giving, hope-filled message! I love you both dearly and I’m SO proud of you!
Oh, and I’m actually mentioned in the book! When you read the book, let me know when you find it! A little book hide-and-seek for you!
I could not love you more! And look at the glowing coffee table from Declare. That was such a beautiful moment. Much like now, filled with Jesus, hope, and friends.
Love you!
-Stacey
I have been that weary mom. I would have loved this encouragement (as opposed to the do’s, don’ts and “what’s wrong with you?!) when I was the mom of little children.
Now I’m a grandmother and I love the days that I can pass on the grace-filled encouragement and gentle guidance to my daughter. My heart wells up with such deep compassion for her when I know of her struggles with weariness. This is a book for HER. I wish that I could get it into her hands this very moment!!
This quote totally should’ve been in the book, “Just because you’re weary doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong. ” Absolutely! Love you, Erin!
