Do your kids think that clean, folded clothes magically appear in their drawers? Do they roll their eyes when you suggest they clean the bathroom? Do you think it's your job to pave their road to success? As parents, so often we hover, race in to save, and do everything we can for our kids - unintentionally reinforcing their belief that the world revolves around them. When Kay Wyma realized that an attitude of entitlement had crept into her home, this mother of five got some attitude of her own.

It's tempting to respond to the slights and indignities of life with bitterness, resentment, frustration, or sadness. But what if there's a better way? Enter The Peace Project and its potent mixture of practicing thankfulness, kindness, and mercy. With short, digestible chapters and plenty of practical application, The Peace Project demonstrates that lasting inner peace comes from outward practices - seeing others, as well as ourselves, not as obstacles to overcome or objects against which to compete or compare but as people of great worth.

Excessive comparison and competition sap our energy and steal our joy. Our friends become our audience and judges, and our kids become part of our brand. Add social media's constant invitation to post and peruse, and it's no wonder that we're left exhausted, discontented, and lonely. Thankfully there is another way.

Life is a pressure cooker, and, more and more, being overwhelmed is just considered normal. Author, blogger, and mother-of-five, Kay Wills Wyma, has learned that if we're going to be overwhelmed by anything, let's have it be truth with all its grace, hope, peace, and love. In this freeing book, she shares how to confront life's pressures we face - at home, online, at work, in our relationships, on our calendars - and replace all those heavy expectations with the liberating truth that we were made for something better.
