Summary

You long to be the mom your kids need, but often you’re convinced you come up short. The label “not enough” seems to be stamped across everything you do—and yet parenting is the one thing you want most to get right. What if the solution is simply to embrace the truth that you are not enough—but God is?
In Gospel-Centered Mom Brooke McGlothlin reveals how our entire approach to motherhood shifts when we stop chasing our vision of a perfect family and start full-out pursuing God.

Brooke McGlothlin is co-founder and President of The MOB Society, author of Praying for Boys: Asking God for the Things They Need Most, co-author of Hope for the Weary Mom: Let God Meet You in the Mess, and the Hope for the Weary Mom 40 Day Devotional. She’s also creator of the Fight Like a BoyMom Program, and a mother of two boys who believes God has chosen her to fight for the hearts of her sons. Her newest book, Gospel Centered Mom, has just released. Brooke can be found most often with her nose in a book, or cheering like a mad woman as her baseball boys take the field.

1:19.9	think you're going to be really encouraged. Brooke shares my heart to bring women back to
1:24.8	the center, back to the, to the, really the word of God is the center of their lives. And
