Alone in Marriage by Susie Larson
Encouragement for the Times When it's all up to You
Any woman married for an extended period of time will endure a one-sided season in marriage (husbands endure one-sided seasons too, but this book is for women). For example, husbands get sick, battle depression, overwork, face a job crisis, or serve overseas in the military. Life happens, the weight shifts, and suddenly you're carrying more than you bargained for. Anger, fear, worry, and disappointment are common byproducts of a one-sided season in marriage. Yet, it's possible not only survive these seasons, but to thrive in them. Let Susie Larson serve as an experienced and encouraging friend who can help you:
- Navigate a one-sided season in marriage without bitterness
- Sense God's peace during an alone period in marriage
- Refresh your mind with God's Word
- Experience freedom from attitudes that weigh you down
- Feel God's presence in the midst of your husband's absence
Take Back Your Kids
We have been discussing this great resource with Jim Otremba on Tuesday mornings.
Too often, Doherty believes, parents merely provide services and opportunities for children, who in turn consider themselves "consumers of parental services." Hierarchy has diminished. Parents regularly make sacrifices in time and money they perceive to benefit their children. Take Back Your Kids shows occasionally saying no to a childs wish, denying a costly and time-consuming opportunity, allows for more meaningful family moments together at meals, church services and volunteer activities.
