Hard Is Not the Same Thing as Bad

The Perspective Shift That Could Completely Change the Way You Mother

De: Abbie Halberstadt

Narrado por: Abbie Halberstadt, Shaun Halberstadt

Bestselling author Abbie Halberstadt helps parents see how God can use the everyday trials of child raising to radically transform how they view hardship and grow to become more like Jesus.

"Why me, Lord?"

Amid the toddler tantrums, the mealtime melees, and the backseat blowups, have you found yourself asking God that same question? Maybe even screaming it into a couch pillow? You're not alone.

Your most trying moments as a parent can quickly spiral into discouragement, hopelessness, and sometimes even resentment toward God or your family—partly because our culture has conditioned us to believe that anything this hard can't possibly be good for us.

Abbie Halberstadt, author of the bestselling M Is for Mama, shares scriptural wisdom and lessons learned from her own challenges as a mama of ten to help shift your perspective on the hardships of parenting and of life, in general.

When you begin to see struggles as a necessary part of God's plan for your spiritual growth, you can discover supernatural peace and purpose, even when you're down in the deepest trenches of parenthood.

Absolutely amazing, as usual

I loved her first book and hoped this would be just as good…I was not disappointed!

Great listen!

This book is filled with Biblical truth to combat culture views of motherhood. I will recommend to others!

Godly Wisdom

This book is full of the scripture and Godly wisdom that our mama hearts need. Very well written and presented. I loved the bits where her husband joins in and offers a godly husband's point of view too. The practical steps and reflection pieces at the end of each chapter would make this great for a group or individual study as well. Highly recommend this read!

Most encouraging for “staying the course” in parenting!

Please Abby write another book soon ! So encouraging, inspiring, and helpful to keep raising our children on the path God has set for us which (usually) differs from the cultural norm. You help me realize I am not alone (or wrong!) !

Relatable

Love Abbie’s books! She is a great author and such a great role model for other mamas!

AMAZING

Absolutely loved this book as a mother of 3 and currently in the newborn stage. The perspective shift and hope I needed to reframe the way I view motherhood. THANK YOU!!

Refreshing read

This book is a great reminder that motherhood was never meant to be easy, but there is so much beauty in it. Enjoyed the listen!

I am changed

I am so grateful I found this book at the end of 2023 and finished today (01-24)
What an eye opener, thank you for such amazing encouragement. God is good!

Honest Biblical Truth
