Walk It Out With Tricia Goyer

"When an earthquake occurs, the tectonic plates shift far beneath the surface, and they never go back to where they started." Kari Baker always loved a good plan. But when her only son Brady was diagnosed with autism in 2014, her plans for a typical parenting experience were shaken to the core. Her journey started with all the pain, uncertainty, and isolation that so many special needs parents encounter, but along the way she found faith, community, and joy in surrendering to God's design. Finding KIND is an account of Kari's initial awakening to Brady's neurological differences, the early years adapting to life as an autism mom, and later accepting and appreciating Brady for exactly who God made him to be. Ultimately, Kari's experiences as a KIND Mom offer practical suggestions for thriving when the best laid plans go awry. Anyone who knows and loves a kid with invisible neurological differences or who is exploring faith in the midst of life's challenges will find hope and encouragement in Kari's story. Purc

As a mom with five kids ages twelve to twenty-two living at home, Amy Betters-Midtvedt found that parenting teens challenged everything she thought it meant to be a “good” mom. But in the unraveling came the building of something new and more beautiful than she could have imagined: an incredible sense of love, hope, joy, and relationship—even in the mess.You'll Make It (and They Will Too) is as much about navigating the minefields of anxiety and mental health as it is setting curfews, convincing kids to bring their dishes back to the kitchen, and deciding whose turn it is to have the car keys. It’s about dancing in the kitchen with soon-to-be adult kids who are taller than you. It’s making appointments with a therapist and a college admissions counselor in the same week. It’s helping your kids cling to faith even as they reject the pew on Sunday mornings.Through stories steeped in hope and prayer of both her professional and personal parenting journey, Amy shares:• words of comfort for when you feel alone, to

Letters to Grief is a collection of letters I wrote to grief. I wrote it for you. For all of you who have known grief as a close companion, an intimate friend. A shadow. I wrote it for those of you who have not yet experienced its acute pangs, but have watched people cringe with the weight of its burden. I wrote it not to dictate how people feel or should feel, but to open a discussion about grief’s all-consuming and ever-changing nature. Its paradoxes and its unexpected qualities. I wrote it for those who have grieving friends and don’t know what it’s like, and for those who wonder when it will pass.I wrote it because grief is a fickle creature, and often despised. Misunderstood and underestimated. Feared, even. Some think it can be conquered. Overcome. I disagree. From my limited experience, grief is not something that passes, at least not in this lifetime. It’s not something a person can graduate from and walk away, unchanged. It’s cyclical, like the moon. It waxes and wanes, ever present. Purchase a copy

Our culture has been lying to women. The world defines female empowerment as believing in yourself or looking within to find the power to succeed. But what happens when women grow weary from trying to do it all? Jesus offers a better way. Becky Beresford used to believe and even promoted some of society’s lies to women.

The teen years are full of uncomfortable self-discovery for everyone. But adopted teens grapple with issues that make the coming-of-age journey immensely more difficult. Many don't have words for what they're feeling, sensing, or believing about themselves. They often don't have anyone like them to help them work through their struggles. Forced to cope on their own, they end up feeling isolated. Adoption advocate and adoptive mom Susan TeBos has watched her own children go through these struggles.
