About

READ

The Invitation of Motherhood: Uncovering the Spiritual Lessons of Parenting is an award-winning book of honest, poignant reflections following the journey of growth and transformation of one mother as she navigates the early years of parenting her three young sons. What she finds is that the daily responsibilities and challenges of motherhood can also be a profound spiritual journey and that there are lessons to be learned and invitations to grow at every turn.

​

A testimony to how motherhood can spark deep insight, this book points to the ways that our children, and the process of mothering them, can teach us some of the greatest lessons of life: how to love more deeply, how to be more present, and how to find compassion in the rough spaces.
