It’s no secret that I adore Sally Clarkson and all of her books that I have read so far.
When I discovered her book of encouragement for homeschool mothers, I knew I needed to read it as soon as we started school.
I also crave accountability and encouragement from other women, so naturally a book club to read through Seasons of a Mother’s Heart
I’ve heard from others that this book is great to motivate a brand new homeschooler or renew a veteran – and I would love the insight and connection with both!

Okay, confession time. I’ve never read a Sally Clarkson book. Shhh! Don’t hate me! This book looks great. I have been looking for books to encourage me for this year. Seem to be in a rut. I’d love to win and join the club!!
Sounds like a wonderful book! I’d love to be entered as I’m just beginning to homeschool my Kdg, age son!

Hello,
This sounds like a very exciting book. I would love to be entered to win and join your club. I am also a home-school blogger and have my own website. I would love to be able to do a review blog on this book and be able to share it with others as well. Sounds like it will be a great journey and adventure for all of us Homsechool moms.
Thanks,
Robin Ballard

This book looks wonderful! Thank you for hosting this give away! :c)
Well, I am not a cut and dry “homeschool” mom since my oldest is in public school. I do more of a teaching life as we go style and fell in love with Seeds Family Worship lately. That’s how I found this blog and would love to read along with you all and learn from you as you seem to have a common goal of raising up kids with a heart for Jesus and his people. I love to have goals and set times to read with friends, so this book club is right up my alley. 🙂
Excited to read this one with you. Just finished The Ministry of Motherhood with GoodMorningGirls.org and am working my way through Educating the Wholehearted Child as a discussion group over on my blog. Every book I’ve read from Sally as been incredible!
I’d love to win this. I just finished a bible study on Ministry of Motherhood this summer and was looking for another Sally Clarkson book to read!
Oh my goodness, I have several Sally Clarkson books on my wish list – would love to win & participate in the book club!
Thanks for the opportunity!
