Book excerpt: You can beat the parenting chaos! Did you start off your parenting journey a bit starry-eyed? You just knew that your children would be better behaved than those other children. They'd be mess-free, they'd never disobey, and they'd always listen intently to your words of wisdom. Then reality hit, and you realized you'd been tricked. It turns out that these little angels have their own minds-and those minds seem primed for disobedience. If this sounds a little too familiar, you're not alone. But there's hope! You can overcome the chaos of parenting and raise kids who will become incredible grown-ups. Join Joel Wolfe as she recounts her parenting adventures in the Wolfe Den, and learn how she and her husband successfully released four capable, independent humans into the wild. You'll cheer at her victories, laugh at her calamities, and most of all, come away with the necessary tools to raise your own cubs. You'll receive wisdom to deal with day-to-day parenting problems, and you'll find the courage, hope, and strength to tame the chaos in your home. You can do this parenting thing. All it takes is to find your courage in chaos. Here's what people are saying about Courage in Chaos: "I love to find parenting books that inspire both the heart and the head in equal measure. Courage in Chaos delivers in spades. Joel Wolfe has something special on her hands with this one!" -Dr. Kevin Leman, author of Making Children Mind without Losing Yours and The Birth Order Book "In this courageous conduit out of chaos, Joel Wolfe provides the modern family with a roadmap for raising incredible children. Courage in Chaos is not only a compelling read but also a vital reference guide that purposeful parents will always keep readily at hand. It is quite clear and enormously reassuring that this book wasn't birthed in remote academic theory but springs from loving, practical parenting consistently applied. You will quickly come to regard it as one of your most crucial allies in the sometimes scary, always challenging, but supremely satisfying job of being a parent." -Rabbi Daniel Lapin, author of Thou Shall Prosper and President of the American Alliance of Jews and Christians "We love Joel Wolfe's new book, Courage in Chaos. It's brilliant, easy to read, and one that you'll return to over and over again for advice. You'll enjoy her real-life examples and solutions discovered through her own experiences, her extensive study of scholarly works, and Scripture on the subject. She's real and holds nothing back from the reader, sharing her own successes and failures openly and honestly. Her book will give you a strong foundation on which to develop children who become strong, responsible adults who are able to wisely navigate life while caring for others, developing healthy relationships, and becoming successful in their life's work and God-given destiny. You'll want to purchase a copy not only for yourself but for others as well." -Brian Simmons, lead translator of The Passion Translation "Courage in Chaos is a delight to read and a highly practical guide to rearing children into healthy, creative young adults. Joel Wolfe is a relentless student of life who shares her wealth of experience and wisdom, distilled into uncomplicated strategies. This isn't simply theory but is tried-and-true wisdom. It is full of fun and totally down-to-earth stories of true adventures, embarassments, and challenges of bringing up four, very much alive, young individuals. There is hope in these pages for any father or mother who needs some easy-to-grasp wisdom for their journey. If you are a parent or grandparent, this book will help you!" -Charles Stock, Senior Pastor at Life Center Ministries
Book Synopsis In the Midst of Chaos by : Bonnie J. Miller-McLemore
Download or read book In the Midst of Chaos written by Bonnie J. Miller-McLemore and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the daily practices of life with children can shape our faith In the Midst of Chaos explores parenting as spiritual practice, building on Bonnie J. Miller-McLemore's fresh conceptions of children from her book Let the Children Come. She questions conventional perceptions that spiritual practices require silence, solitude, and uninterrupted prayer and that assume a life unburdened by care of others. She is both honest about the difficulties and attentive to the blessings present in everyday life and demonstrates that the life of faith encompasses children and the adults who care for them. Miller-McLemore explores how parents might use seven daily practices, such as play, reading, chores, and saying goodbye or goodnight as rich opportunities to shape both parent and child morally and spiritually. Through these experiences, she shows how the very care of children forms and reforms the faith of adults themselves, contrary to the belief that adults must form children. In the Midst of Chaos also goes beyond the typical focus on individual self-fulfillment by tackling difficult questions of social justice and mutuality in the ways families live together. Readers will find in this book an invitation to love those around them in the midst of life's craziness and to live more deeply in grace.

Book Synopsis The Parent Survival Guide by : Theresa Kellam
Download or read book The Parent Survival Guide written by Theresa Kellam and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2011-02-14 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When parents turn to the parenting/self-help section of their local bookstore, they are looking for both practical guidance and a childrearing philosophy that resonates with them - an approach they can relate to and be comfortable implementing in their own household. In The Parent Survival Guide: From Chaos to Harmony in Ten Weeks or Less, Theresa Kellam presents a way to strengthen the relationship with the child that simultaneously promotes the parent's own emotional healing and wellness. Grounded in a research-supported therapeutic technique that uses structured play time as the catalyst for interpersonal connection and growth, Kellam's model is subtle in its simplicity. Through a series of guided exercises, Kellam gives parents the skills they need to begin to set aside special playtimes with their children, during which the most important part of the process is simply "being there" in a way that promotes healing, growth, and communication. The beauty of this approach is that in only 30 minutes, once a week, the results can be seen in only a few weeks. Features of the book include: "Parent Survival Tip" at the start of each chapter Original cartoon illustrations bring text to life Short but insightful workseet questions bring focus to the program The Parent Survival Guide is structured over a series of 10 chapters, which can be read in conjunction with the 10-sessions of the CPRT workshops for those parents enrolled in a formal filial training program. But the material in the book is designed to be read and implemented by anyone. The author is not only a licensed psychologist and filial therapist, but she has also gone through the program with her own son and continues to rely on its principles within her family.

This is a call for parents to be intentional, strong and clear in their choices regarding the messages that children receive about religion.

This important book is ideal for adults of any faith who are concerned with the spiritual development of children. Book jacket.
Book Synopsis Can't Let Go by : M. D Raphael Tshibangu
Download or read book Can't Let Go written by M. D Raphael Tshibangu and published by Rtst Group. This book was released on 2021-07-09 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can't Let Go is much more than a tale of rags to riches or the recounting of an immigrant's trials and tribulations. It is not just another rendition of the struggles of belonging-as a newcomer in an unfamiliar land or as a stranger in one's own world where his own people have come to see him as an outsider, nor is it simply about resilience and overcoming. Can't Let Go is, in essence, a compelling story of love: a man's love of family and country; a love that is tested, profoundly challenged but still enduring. Can't Let Go, an engaging memoir, begins in the early 1950s in the quaint little mining town of Jadotville in the Belgian Congo. Against the backdrop of monumental political, economic, and social changes the author, Dr. Raphael Tshibangu, chronicles his improbable journey and spellbinding experiences across continents and oceans, a journey that would take him from his humble, yet proud, beginnings to realizing his adolescent dream of becoming a medical doctor. With vivid details and honest self-reflection, he leads us from his childhood home in a laborer camp to attending some of the most prestigious schools in the United States, thriving and achieving the American Dream as a distinguished specialist in Obstetrics and Gynecology. As we travel along on Dr. Tshibangu's odyssey, it becomes clear that Can't Let Go is also about Grace and Destiny, about the universe unfolding in mysterious and seemingly miraculous ways. In a candid and intimate way, the author brings us with him on his introspective journey and highlights his meandering path from determination and certainty to anguish and ambiguity, and finally to realizations, possibilities and, yes, even enlightenment and happiness. Can't Let Go is a deeply human story with universal challenges, an inspirational tale that holds a mirror to many among us.

Book excerpt: Love-Powered Parenting is written out of a love for parenting and a deep desire to encourage parents. Yes, there are experiences in parenting that can cause deep hurt. Yes, there are realities in parenting that certainly will cause you to feel inept. Yet at the core of it all there is a deep gratefulness for the gift that God gives in the opportunity to love a child. This book is a biblical guide to parenting. And by "biblical guide" we mean these pages are intended to take you on a journey through what the truth of God's Word has to say about parenting. The main goal is not to uncover psychological truths about your child--there are many good resources on psychological theory; nor does it include practical tips for everyday circumstances such as how to get your kids to eat their green beans. Here, we will explore the simple and profound principles of God's Word to distinguish psychological truth from error, educational reality from untested theory, and we'll be looking at these tips within the broader context of God's principles for parenting.
