“The Ministry of Motherhood” by Sally Clarkson–a helpful follow up to “Shepherding a Child’s Heart”
Saturday, June 11, 2011 Review by Holly
When I started this book with www.goodmorninggirls.org, summer book club, I didn’t quite know what to expect. I just needed some structure to my quiet times with the Lord and some focus on mothering. I have been pleasantly surprised to find this book flow well with the last parenting book that I read by Tedd Tripp, “Shepherding a Child’s Heart”. Where Tedd Tripp is abstract, Sally is specific. She explains thoroughly how she seizes a discipleship moment: what she says, what questions she asks, how the children respond, how she could have missed it. She brings Ted’s ideals down from the sky.
