Parenting is a journey that takes patience and time, and this book comes with the assurance that as we take it one day at a time, we’ll build resilience and grow together as families and communities of faith.
“Practicing patient resilience means being reflective, understanding and acknowledging our inner emotional life, finding balance between the push and pull of life and leaning on our Savior to restore our soul. As we parent with this sense of balance and attention to the state of our own soul, our children will learn to appreciate that goodness, mercy, and comfort can be found even in difficult times.”
