Motherhood Matters: Joyful Reminders of the Divinity, Reality, and Rewards of Motherhood by Connie E. Sokol
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I find it so interesting that as of late, LDS books have struck a chord with me. Nothing against Mormons, but I am not of the Mormon faith and will never be. I have read Christian books for years, and many have been about women, wives, and mothers. They often leave me with a sense of guilt and/or the feeling that I am not doing enough. Connie Sokol is not like that at all. She is a writer who will validate you as a mom and remind you of why you accepted this divinely-appointed calling. I even had spiritual insight gleaned from her book concerning Rebekah that I never would have seen without her pointing it out. She is down-to-earth, and she will never put you on a guilt trip. And don’t worry if you’re not married or if you don’t have any kids. She speaks to all women. This woman has found true joy in motherhood, and whenever I read her books, I just feel so good! This is an ideal Mother’s Day gift, or just pick it up for yourself, ladies. You’ll be glad you did!
I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.
