| "Mothers are faced with logical, and sometimes loony, sources of fear when it comes to their children. Every Mom's Fear Factor shows mothers how to recognize when such fears are out of proportion and gives them the tools needed to stay balanced in the face of fear. This book is not a simple "Don't be frightened" guide. It focuses, instead, on the courage in "encouragement." This book helps women recognize and thrive inside the paradox of needing to be a protector, encourager, and comforter as their children grow. It's a fine line--but an important one--between being wisely aware of danger and allowing the prospect of danger to paralyze. Good parenting may look hard or next to impossible but--even walking that high wire--moms can arm themselves with tools, skills, wise counsel, faith in a trustworthy God, and perspective to face the challenge. Drawing from expert psychological advice alongside testimony from real moms with real fears, this book brings a warmhearted, encouraging voice_as well as hope that the goals are achievable, exciting and worth the risk--to other moms out there who may be struggling with these very issues. Every Mom's Fear Factor offers honest, personal experiences, a healthy dose of good laughs, and encouragement to ask the right questions and dig deep--in both the Bible and ourselves--for useful answers. The Hearts at Home Workshop Series is designed to encourage, equip, and educate moms who are at home or would like to be. Ideal for personal use, group discussions, and mentoring relationships, each book in this series includes questions for personal reflection and a leader's guide with discussion questions." |

The book includes discussion questions, an appendix for facilitating discussions, and a bibliography of additional resources. |
