Publisher's summary

Every mom can identify with the feeling that they’re in a race to the finish line every day, stumbling over everything in their path - including Legos and dirty laundry!

Kara-Kae James knows how overwhelming motherhood can be. As she writes, “When we come to the place where we think that we have failed - this is the moment when God’s Word and motherhood intersect.”

In Mom Up, James shares four themes that impact how she follows Jesus and parents her kids: intentional motherhood, genuine community, refreshing rest, and embracing chaos. With practical ideas for building relationships with other moms, grace-filled Scripture reminders, and a healthy dose of humor, Mom Up helps listeners step out of survival mode and into the abundant life God has for them and their family.

Everything I was hoping this book would be.

This book was everything I had dared to hope it would be. It was like sitting down with a trusted friend who understands exactly where I am in life. I was inspired, encouraged, and refreshed by this book. I am not one to listen to books over and over but I will listen to this one again. Great narration by the author. You won’t be disappointed.

Great Book For Parents!

This is a great book for moms that are stuck in survival just trying to get through the day/years. While the book is obviously completely written to moms, I (as a dad) think there is a lot that dads can learn from this book that would really benefit your parenting and marriage if you let it spark honest conversations between partners. Definitely a recommend. Plus it’s got short chapters that allow plenty of the stopping points that parents need!

Stumbled upon a gem

I was looking for a parenting book to tell me what I could do better as a mom and how not to make mistakes that would ruin my child. I stumbled upon this book not realizing that it was Christian based. This was a plus. The author opened her heart in the pages of this book and inspired me to be the mom that God would have me to be and not the world’s standards. The Bible study and take action sections at the end of each chapter are wonderful.

Just what I needed

This book was perfect, just what I needed to hear as a mom of 5 soon to be 6. There were so many time I found myself saying, "Wow, she's been there too!" it made me feel that I am not the only mom who has to step back sometimes and breathe and ask God for help. I would highly recommend this to any mom no matter the season of life you are in. Thank you Mrs James for being so open and honest about your life. With doing that you have helped this mom!😊

Beautifully read and beautifully written

I love a good southern, Christian women. Especially one who can speak their reality and testimony. And relate to us in a positive way and remind us just how present God is and can be in our lives.
