What if the exhaustion, wonder, and work of motherhood weren’t barriers to knowing God…but invitations?

Love Like a Mother weaves together real-life stories from the trenches of motherhood with overlooked maternal imagery for God in the Bible, offering both spiritual depth and a sense of humor that only a mother could deliver. 

The book gently invites readers to rediscover God under the lens of motherhood, as the one who gestates, births, mourns, adopts, nourishes, comforts, and protects - just like a mother. This discovery highlights how mothers bear the image of God in the sacred ordinary of everyday motherhood, from first contractions to first smiles to first tantrums. 

For moms feeling spiritually adrift within parenting, this book offers a lifeline to spiritual connection, right in the middle of dishes, diapers, and sleepless nights, offering theological insights rooted in Scripture and contemplative prayer and devotional practices that fit right within the busiest days. The book also serves as an inspiration to moms in all stages of life, perfect for gift-giving and group discussion.

 
 
 
 


Hi! I’m Elizabeth 

I write about how the God of the Bible loves us like a mother.

When I'm not trying to write on one of my twenty-seven open internet tabs, I love hanging out with my husband and three kids, swimming, cooking, and talking to strangers in the grocery store line.
