About
What and who should get the best of us?
And why is it so enticing to choose lesser things instead of lasting things?
As moms we know the magnetic pull to steer away from what's important and choose what feels irresistible in the moment. In Shiny Things, Amanda Bacon and Anne-Renee Gumley bring to light the distractions moms face every day.
Honoring God and loving our families are our highest priority, but sometimes we need help keeping them there. For all of us who find ourselves caught in the cycle of distraction but are looking for a way out, Shiny Things will help us:
• identify the threat of distractions so we can learn to live with intention
• resist the pull to be interrupted by non-essentials and focus on God and our priority people
• purpose to live free from distraction with hearts turned Godward in all we do
It's never too late to take hold of what's most important. Today's a great day to start.
When a constant stream of distractions demand your attention, it's easy to lose sight of what this Mom thing is all about. Shiny Things examines the joys and difficulties of parenthood, and offers hope to help you determine what is truly important and how to mother fully present and engaged.
Amanda Bacon lives in North Carolina with her husband, Jeremy, and their eight children. She works for Proverbs 31 Ministries and loves encouraging women with biblical truth and authenticity. When she isn't driving carpool or feeding people, you can find her writing, reading, or wandering outdoors.
