Motherhood: Empowered by Love Saved by Grace

This book by Christie Gardiner is like a little pep-talk for mothers on grace. It is a quick read and I felt like it was geared particularly to moms of young children. The author’s main focus is that she wants moms to know they are enough and they are doing a good job, even when they feel like they aren’t. She uses several examples of women who went through difficult trials and had to rely on the Savior and His grace to be the mom they needed to be.

I particularly enjoyed the portion where Gardiner says we need to “expect grace.” As members of the Church who are trying to do what’s right, even if you aren’t a mother, we can see grace every single day. We can see the little miracles in our life and be the woman we are to become if we rely on Him. Perfect for a Mother's Day gift!

Motherhood: We do what we have to do; we face what we have to face. We all experience our own seemingly insurmountable challenges only to somehow rise again.

Mothers traverse a lifelong path of ups and downs, often encountering seemingly insurmountable obstacles along the way. In those moments when the gulf between who you are and who you must be for your children seems too great to bridge, where can you find the strength to not only survive but also thrive? With an abundance of personal stories and thought-provoking questions, best-selling author Christie Gardiner reaches out to women in all stages of motherhood with the answer: through the grace of Jesus Christ, you can do all things.
