Missional Motherhood

Agape Mom’s gospel-centered resource recommendation this week is Missional Motherhood by Gloria Furman. She digs deep into scripture in this book, painting God’s high view of motherhood, all while filtering it through a Christ centered lens. There is also a 7 week study version of this book, but it doesn’t dig quite as deep as the book.

From the back cover: “There's no such thing as “just” a mom. Despite the routine tasks and mundane to-do lists, motherhood is anything but insignificant. God has designed motherhood as part of his greater plan to draw people to himself―instilling all women, whether called to traditional mothering or not, with an eternal purpose in nurturing others.

In this book, Gloria Furman searches the Scriptures for the mission of God in motherhood. She opens our eyes to God's life-giving promises―promises intended to empower each and every woman as she makes disciples in her home, in her neighborhood, and around the world.”
