Missional Motherhood: The Everyday Ministry of Motherhood in the Grand Plan of God | Gloria Furman

2 posts | 3 read | 2 to read

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.

Missional Motherhood: The Everyday Ministry of Motherhood in the Grand Plan of God | Gloria Furman

"Every other need points you to the one, great need of knowing and being known by God. ... Are you thirsty? It's a pointer to help you see that your spiritual thirst can be quenched only by the living water Jesus gives. Are you cold? Afraid? Restless? Sad? Lonely? Lost? These needs point you to the one and only God who made you, loves you, and gave his Son to die in your place so you could love him back in spirit and in truth forever." - p. 28

so-so

This book was not what I expected. It was a great overview of the Bible but I felt it lacked any real practical application on motherhood. It seemed to me that the focus was more on missions than on motherhood and our mission as mothers.
