About this listen

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.

Optimism and original voice

Love the author’s wisdom, experience, and Biblical truth. Her hard work in including her husband’s words and voice recording was such an added blessing. I will be recommending this book and for others to give it a listen!

Highly recommend!

Since discovering Abbie’s work I have felt so much more positive about my motherhood journey. It really has helped to shift my perspective and feel like less of a victim. Thank you Abbie 💜

Must read for Christian Mamas

Beautifully written and biblically minded. Even better than M is for Mama. God honouring and uplifting.

Poorly made

The flow of this book is disjointed and would probably be better read than listened to. The voices sounded quite amateur in terms of delivery and the quality was poor. Audible wouldn’t allow a return so I’ve had to delete it.
