Fear, Faith, and Figuring It Out

Every child is different, but mothers are very much the same around the world-the same worries and fears, guilt and joys. Dive in to For the Joy and laugh and cry with 21 Australian missionary mothers as they share stories of raising kids in both remote far-flung places and some of the most populated cities in the world. These inspiring stories will resonate in the heart of the reader as fear, faith, and figuring it out come together in page-turning reality. 

Stories include: 

• home-schooling while living in a bus 

• navigating the toddler years as a "third culture mum" 

• raising a child with special needs 

• recovering from anxiety on the field 

• giving birth in a foreign hospital 

• the grief of losing your family to persecution ... and more! 

Honestly written, raw in emotion, sad and joyful in equal measure, this collection of stories offers insight into the complexities of parenting children while serving God no matter where you call home.
