Pilgrim Prayers for Grandmothers Raising Grandchildren
But what can I do this day to these my [children] or to their children whom they have borne? --Genesis 31:43 There is an adjustment that must occur internally when you have felt that parenting days were finished. There is an emotional shifting that must take place when cooking, grocery shopping, and meal planning have stopped being a primary consideration. There is a major spiritual engagement that takes place when a child is put into your care that you did not plan for and birth. Prayer is essential! --from Pilgrim Prayers for Grandmothers Raising Children Author Linda H. Hollies has created a book dedicated to the ever-increasing and contemporary phenomenon of grandmothers raising their grandchildren. Currently raising a grandson, Hollies has firsthand experience with parenting the second time around, and enthusiastically shares her journey and insights, offering comfort, inspiration, and ways to turn a predicament into the opportunity of a lifetime. Each of the 45 chapters contains an anecdote and/or observation, a brief Scripture passage, and a heartfelt prayer, and concludes with a prayer focus to help readers center themselves.
On Their Way to Wonderful
Hollies' latest offering is a Bible study on the covenant that Ruth made to Naomi--what she refers to as "sister friends"--as they left Moab on their way to Jerusalem. What makes this so unique is that Hollies creatively retells the story using the liturgical year as her backdrop. The liturgical seasons of Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Ash Wednesday, Lent, Easter, the Easter season, Pentecost, and Ordinary times are used. On Their Way to Wonderful is an exploration of multicultural marriage (Ruth and Boaz) as well as diversity and racism in Scripture (Ruth, a Moabite who God allows to enter the forbidden Jewish blood line). Women will relate to this resource as it touches on issues that impact their lives, such as making critical decisions, handling relationships, and renewal of the self and soul. Includes study questions and space for journaling.
Inner Healing for Broken Vessels
The seven steps to inner healing described in this book were learned through much pain and struggle by the author as she journeyed from childhood wounds to wholeness. Each chapter weaves the story of a present-day woman's struggle with that of a woman from the Bible. Includes questions and suggestions for growth.

Going to Wait!

Sister Save Yourself!

She begins by simply telling them they do not have to stay in abusive relationships, but provides effective strategies and solutions. She discusses how and why the church must speak out against male domination and institutional sexism and offers a new interpretation of the scriptures that are used to support submissiveness.
