As a mother with three young children, I heard the message over and over again\u2014if you\u2019re serious about your spiritual life, you\u2019ll find some silent alone time each day for a \u201cquiet time.\u201d But I couldn\u2019t even escape to the bathroom alone, much less anything else. One after another, my fellow moms sounded the cry of defeat: we just can\u2019t right now.

\nBut there was another cry growing in my exhausted spirit: there must be another way. After all, God created birth, babies, and families. He knows exactly what they demand from us. And more than that, he entered this world as a baby himself! He entered a woman\u2019s womb and was born. Isn\u2019t it entirely possible that in these days of creation, nurture, service, sacrifice, and perseverance we are acting out powerful spiritual practices in our daily lives?
\nRead The Resilient Service of Jesus and Mothers<\/em><\/strong><\/a>
\nIt was in seeking out the answer to this question that Long Days of Small Things: Motherhood as a Spiritual Discipline<\/em> was born. I am a seeker who writes to open eyes to the creative and redemptive work of God in each moment. Come find Him with me.
\nAs with so many things, Long Days of Small Things<\/em><\/a> was conceived as a spark, an idea, without me realizing that something new and real had begun. Then came a long but joyful gestation period of writing, rewriting, and editing. And then the labor of launching and delivering this book into your hands.
\nIn honor of the book release we’ve put together a lovely collection of gifts. I\u2019m so incredibly excited about it \u2014 I only wish I could win it myself!
\nRead Jesus from a Mother’s Perspective<\/em><\/strong><\/a>
\nSo here we go \u2014 away from the quiet hours of choosing words and crafting sentences, and into this new (and much louder) season of sharing it with you all. Launching a book has been unlike anything I\u2019ve ever experienced. I\u2019m grateful and nervous. I\u2019m excited and exhausted. It feels unbelievable and long overdue.
\nI would be honored if you would check out Long Days of Small Things<\/em>, and ENTER THE GIVEAWAY<\/a>. Enter to win early and often \u2014 and help me celebrate by spreading the word. Don’t wait, the giveaway ends on April 2nd.<\/strong>
\nAnd of course, happy reading!
