Moms at the Well

About this book

Meeting God Through the Mothers of Scripture Motherhood is hard. Really hard. Tara Edelschick and Kathy Tuan-MacLean know this personally. As moms who have spent decades working with and encouraging other moms, they know the struggles real moms face in our real world. Their survey of more than seven hundred moms revealed that moms experience worry, anger, comparison, escapism, a desire for control, and even heartbreak while raising children. And moms long to connect with God in the midst of it all, but even that can feel like a challenge. That's why we need a well. For centuries, women met daily at neighborhood wells to draw water for their families, meeting a very significant physical need. But these wells were also gathering spaces, providing much-needed community and relationships. Moms at the Well offers a modern-day "well" for mothers--a gathering place to encourage one another, take an honest look at the challenges we face as moms, and experience the God who invites us into a process of spiritual transformation. Through studying women in Scripture, this seven-week Bible study walks through challenges that moms face: When we feel unseen When we're worried When we're running from pain When we're caught in a comparison trap When we're angry When we're grasping for control When our hearts are breaking Moms at the Well includes weekly sessions for groups of any size, access to weekly teaching videos, and five days of individual study and reflection each week. You'll study how God meets you where you are, welcomes you into honest conversation, calls you to trust and obey, transforms and sets you free, and invites you to be an agent of shalom. This refreshing, accessible, and insightful study from trusted Bible teachers will encourage you in your faith. Meet with moms, meet with God, and find much-needed refreshment at the well.
