Sometimes life feels a lot like a burden – day-in and day-out, it’s the same chores and tasks, challenges and discouragements, anxieties and responsibilities. Dust bunnies show up on the stairwell, social commitments clutter the calendar, and our families demand daily attention and care. At times, just catching our breath seems like an impossible feat.

Whether you are a stay-at-home mom or a working woman splitting time between the office and home, Gloria Furman — writer, pastor’s wife, cross-cultural worker, and mom — encourages us to see the reality of God’s grace in all of life, especially those areas that often appear to be boring and unimportant. Using personal examples and insightful stories, her richly theological reflections help us experience the gospel’s extraordinary power to transform our ordinary lives.

Hints on Child Training (H. Clay Trumbull)
“What Trumbull calls ‘hints’ are, in fact, precious jewels…I have been greatly helped by this wonderful book”, says Gregg Harris. A book with much wisdom to pass on to Christian parents regarding our attitudes towards our children and on how to bring willing obedience forth from them rather than forcing it from them. The author was Elisabeth Elliot’s grandfather.
Fortified with common sense and Biblical wisdom, Trumbull’s straightforward guide has established its place as a classic work in the field of child rearing. Written over 100 years ago, it is completely free of modernist influence. After all, Freud had not yet developed his theories of the subconscious; Pavlov and Skinner had not yet introduced to educators their animal-training techniques known as behaviorism; Dewey’s Religious (i.e. Secular) Humanism had not overtaken the public schools; and Dr. Benjamin Spock had not published his dangerous book on child training.
