Every mom can identify with the feeling that they're in a race to the finish line every day, stumbling over everything in their path-including Legos and dirty laundry! Kara-Kae James knows how overwhelming motherhood can be. As she writes, "When we come to the place where we think that we have failed-this is the moment when God's Word and motherhood intersect." In Mom Up, James shares four themes that impact how she follows Jesus and parents her kids: intentional motherhood, genuine community, refreshing rest, and embracing chaos. With practical ideas for building relationships with other moms, grace-filled Scripture reminders, and a healthy dose of humor, Mom Up helps readers step out of survival mode and into the abundant life God has for them and their family.
"Mom Up will empower you to fulfill God's plan for motherhood by standing on the unshakable foundation of His Word. Kara-Kae delivers truth, wisdom, and, most importantly, the permission every mom needs to reject what the world says, claim ownership over her calling, and declare victory in Christ."

"Kara-Kae addresses the felt need tensions that every mom feels at some point-feelings of isolation, guilt, fear, and exhaustion. She raises those tensions out of personal experience and meets them with the grace that she has experienced. In Mom Up, women will find rest in the chaos, joy in the mundane, and a friend in the trenches."

"Parenting is an adventure! You need a friend like Kara-Kae, who gets both the joys of parenting and how hard some seasons of motherhood can be. She knows how to move beyond just surviving the seasons and how to reach out to God for strength. In Mom Up , she'll take you by the hand and help you thrive in it all."
