Do you ever feel a disconnect as a mother—like you’re doing all the "mom things” you’re supposed to do as you stoop to serve your kids with your hands, but your heart isn’t in it? Kristen Wetherell has been there, and instead of offering you a parenting plan, a pep talk, or a list of things to do, her words in Humble Moms offers you exactly what she needs in moments of exhaustion: life-giving and biblical meditations on Jesus, who humbly serves you not only in hand, but in heart.

You might be wounded by the broken promises of your child's father. But God offers a greater promise to you and your family.

He offers guidance and wisdom to moms who want to raise sons who will make and keep their commitments.

Ser madre es un vuelco al corazón que pone tu mundo cabeza abajo. Mirar a tu bebé a los ojos por primera vez reorganiza tus prioridades, da forma a tu vida; te lleva a prometerte que harás cuanto esté en tu mano por esa criatura. Pero traer un niño al mundo no implica solo la responsabilidad de cuidarlo y protegerlo; también la de soltarle, cuando llega el momento, y dejar que camine solo, que escoja los senderos que le pida su alma, que vuele libre de cargas sabiendo que nuestra tarea está completa.
