Mothering Against Futility

In Mothering Against Futility, Simona Gorton offers a thoughtful reflection on balancing meaning and mundanity through the fear of the Lord.

This short, accessible book applies the gospel to motherhood. Drawing on the wisdom of Ecclesiastes, Gorton extends grace to the everyday realities of raising young children.

Hope for Heavy Hearts

I was especially moved by her reflection on Jesus healing the man born blind with ordinary, dirty, messy mud. This scene beautifully illustrates how God sanctifies and heals us, opening our eyes to His grace through humble means.

Mothering Against Futility offers hope to weary mothers. This book invites moms to bring their burdens to Jesus and find rest and rejuvenation in His arms.
