My Life as a Single Mom: Seven Biblical Lessons for Transforming Your Life and Family
Our journeys take us through crossroads where decisions must be made, to mountaintops where victories are celebrated, and to detours where a once stable voyage suddenly takes a new turn. Much of the time, the most difficult part is living through all the unknowns as we try to discover what God’s plan is. My Life as a Single Mom: Seven Biblical Lessons for Transforming Your Life and Family is a seven-week individual study composed of collective works from God’s Word and from others who lived centuries before. This study is geared toward single mothers but is an essential resource for all women, addressing fundamental truths every woman needs to walk in her faith. Through His Word, God gives principles to instruct her, wisdom to guide her, and truths to help her as she moves forward on the journey that has been entrusted to her.
