M Is for Mama: A Rebellion Against Mediocre Motherhood

“In M Is for Mama, author Abbie Halberstadt gives readers a fly-on-the-wall view of life in a large, loving family. She knows firsthand what a sanctifying challenge motherhood can be, yet she embraces it for the high calling it is and urges other mamas to do the same. Her writing is packed with practical wisdom, heartfelt encouragement, and an unapologetic commitment to the truth of God’s Word. Abbie’s book not only makes me long to be a more excellent mother myself but also assures me that by God’s grace, such excellence is possible.”
—Jennifer Flanders, author of Balance: The Art of Minding What Matters Most

Abbie is a needed and powerful voice for this generation of mothers. In a world that often considers motherhood burdensome, she reminds us of the blessing in even the mundane and the ordinary. No matter the ages of your children, Abbie will inspire you to parent with conviction, compassion, and courage.”
—Katie Majors, New York Times bestselling author of Kisses from Katie and Daring to Hope

“Abbie’s book reads like a motivating conversation with a trusted mentor and friend. She speaks on a subject that has been dangerously glorified—mediocre motherhood—and uses biblical truths to encourage Christlike motherhood instead. I love how she gives practical advice and action steps while also keeping it real. What a refreshing read!”
—Jodi Mockabee, author of The Whole and Healthy Family

“Abbie holds a torch for young mothers, lighting the path toward a parenthood that is fulfilling and empowering. In a world that tells us we are captive to our children and that motherhood is something to just survive, Abbie’s teaching is a breath of fresh air. She shows mothers of all ages that it’s possible to love God, love your kids, and love mothering them—all at the same time.”
