*The spiritual genius of motherhood
*The many ways mothers build, shape, and strengthen society
*How motherhood can be a path to fulfillment and even greatness
*The biblical view of the dignity of motherhoodIt is time for Christ’s message of the dignity, strength, and purpose of motherhood to prosper. This book will help you in your personal discovery – or rediscovery – of your vocation.
