M Is for Mama

Written by Abbie Halberstadt

Narrated by Abbie Halberstadt

Mama of ten Abbie Halberstadt helps women humbly and gracefully rise to the high calling of motherhood without settling for mediocrity or losing their minds in the process.

Motherhood is a challenge. Unfortunately, our worldly culture offers moms little in the way of real help. Mamas only connect to celebrate surviving another day and to share in their misery rather than rejoice in what God has done and to build each other up in hard times. There has a be a better way, a biblical way, for mamas to grow and thrive.

As a daughter of Christ, you have been called to be more than an average mama. Attaining excellence doesn't have to be unsettling but it will take committed focus and a desire to parent well according to God's grace and for His glory.

M is for Mama offers advice, encouragement, and scripturally sound strategies seasoned with a little bit of humor to help you embrace the challenge of biblical motherhood and raise your children with love and wisdom.

Mama, you are worthy of the awesome responsibility God has given you. Now it's time to start believing you can live up to it.

Reviews for M Is for Mama

[Ruth Hale · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Life changing. Every Mama should read this book once a year. If you want to read a motherhood book packed with scripture, and truth (even the hard truth) this is the book for you, Mama. ?

[Morgan · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book was tough to swallow, but not because it isn’t true. This book speaks many truths that are sometimes easy to forget or turn away from. I needed the self reflection that this book gave me and only wish that I had read it sooner. For moms who are wanting to focus on biblical motherhood, this is an excellent book.

Such a fantastic book that I wish I could have read when I had littles. Though even now with teenagers and one who is 20 I am still learning. To God be the glory.

I have been a fan of Abbie for a long time, but this book just made me look up to her more. She is an example of biblically sound, encouraging motherhood like no other, and this book blessed me in many ways. Grateful to God for guidance through her! I will read this again, and have already purchased it for mom friends.

Loved the honesty and encouragement in motherhood.

Warning: Christian mamas will find conviction from the Holy Spirit.
Non Christian mama: you may not find this helpful and/or you could be offended.

Wonderful, loved the author's voice reading this book. A fantastic message and encouragement for moms!

[Brittney Schwarck · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book was convicting and thought-provoking. On top of that, it was actually practical. Sometimes mothering books can be so abstract, but this one combined inner life with actual real life advice. I will recommend this to all my friends and also probably listen again.

Biblical wisdom for motherhood. Encouraging, convicting and inspiring. Loved it!

[Molly · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I loved and needed this book so much! I value Abbie’s biblical and motherhood wisdom. I would highly recommend this book to any mama! Thank you so much for writing what the Lord laid on your heart to provide encouragement and wisdom to other mamas.

[Andy Eckert · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I have followed Abbie on and off for a very long time. I say “on and off” because in seasons of feeling overwhelmed, her seemingly perfect life felt too much. As I’ve matured as a mom, and quite possibly her maturing as well, she seems like a more relatable woman, and I adore her! This book is absolutely golden. She says exactly what I would want to say if I were to writing a book! Definitely in my top 3 parenting books EVER!

[laurajanes · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

An absolutely praiseworthy and encouraging book. Every Momma should take the time to read this!

Encouraging! Helps to check if we have the biblical common sense or are swayed by the emotional winds of the everchanging culture.
