Hoodwinked: Ten Myths Moms Believe and Why We All Need To Knock It Off by Karen

Description: Hoodwinked by Karen Ehman, Ruth Schwenk, Candace Cameron Bure Hoodwinked equips mothers of all ages and stages to stop believing the destructive and divisive lies our current culture feeds them and start living the life-changing truths of Scripture. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Moms have been hoodwinked—tricked into believing lies that keep them from not only enjoying motherhood, but forging friendships with other moms who might tackle the tasks of motherhood differently. Myths such as "Mothering is natural, easy, and instinctive" cause moms to feel like failures if they have questions or apprehensions in raising their kids. Operating from the premise that "The way I mother is the right (and only) way" puts up fences between moms instead of building bridges of encouragement between them. Lies such as "I am my childs choices" tempt moms to mistakenly believe that if their child makes a wrong choice then they, in turn, must be a bad mom.In their encouraging "weve been there" style, Karen Ehman and Ruth Schwenk enable mothers to:Identify the ten myths of motherhood our current culture perpetuatesReplace the lies with the truth of what God says in the Bible about motheringAcquire practical tools to help them form new and improved thought patterns and healthy behaviorsForge healthy, supportive relationships with other moms of all ages and stagesConfidently embrace the calling of motherhood as they care for their families in their own unique way A six-session video Bible study for group or individual use is also available.
