About this ebook
A PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY BESTSELLER
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.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If you want Biblical parenting wisdom, look no further. Abbie speaks not from a place of pride, but from the truths found in Scripture and mixes it with practical application.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book was written right to by heart. I love how she addresses mediocre motherhood and calls us to a better choice, in SO many ways. There were many times that I was nodding along with tears brimming in my eyes. I cannot wait for her next book to be available in audio. I love listening, especially when the author is reading to us.
Absolutely one of the very best motherhood books. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5So beautifully written- so much wisdom and relevance in todays culture! I loved listening to the audio as Abbie has a great narrating voice- Must read/ listen for any Christian mumma. I didn’t want the book to end!
