Publisher's Description
In Brave Mom, Sherry Surratt, president and CEO of MOPS International, shares honestly and openly about the fears every mom struggles with. From worry about your child’s safety and health to wondering if you are a good parent, to fears about your marriage and loss of self-identity, Sherry comes alongside every mom with practical, real, and hopeful help for these common fears that we’re all afraid to talk about. The 10 most common mom fears are each covered in their own easy to read chapter, made up of stories of real moms and the help and answers they found. Filled with advice and insight from Sherry and the hope and grace found in God’s wisdom, Brave Mom gives moms everything they need to leave fear behind and live the admittedly messy life of parenting with confidence and joy. Each chapter also contains a prayer for moms to help them turn their fears over to God’s protection and care. As the mom experts, MOPS provide moms around the country a connection to other moms, practical help to move ahead, and the warmth and grace of God’s love.

“Parenthood is the most amazing, rewarding, and terrifying job any of us will ever undertake. In Brave Mom, Sherry Surratt has created a safe place for moms to retreat — a place where they can admit that they’re afraid, be refreshed and revitalized by Sherry’s words of encouragement, and dive confidently back into the trenches of parenthood with the knowledge that they are not alone.”
“Is there anything quite like being a mom that surfaces the deep, unconscious fears that lurk in our souls? The answer is no. And Sherry Surratt plumbs those depths with us. From nasal syringes to expectations to cancer and beyond, this book intersects those fears with Jesus, and as a result, the reader comes out different on the other side.”
“Moms make the world go round! But too many of them are burdened by the fear that they’re not measuring up. We hear stories like this every day at Focus on the Family. Sherry Surratt’s book offers time-tested, biblically sound advice for moms in the challenges they face. I highly recommend it.”
