A companion for the mother-daughter lifelong journey.Raising daughters is a divine gift. Its wonderful and, at times, excruciatingly painful. As a mother of seven daughters, September McCarthy has had, well, seven opportunities to get the mother-daughter dance down. Shes made mistakes. Many mistakes. Yet by Gods great grace, shes also gleaned an inestimable trove of godly wisdom.Raising Daughters is a loving companion book for the daily journey of mothering young women. Written with warmth and honesty, September begins by exploring Gods delight in you-as a woman and a mother-and continues with topics on purpose, fears, generational lies, grit, grace, conflict, and the beauty of womanhood.This book is for moms who, like September, have tripped over their words and recognize their wisdom isnt enough. Its for the mother who feels afraid to talk to her daughters about difficult and uncomfortable subjects. And for the mom confused and fatigued by the emotional rollercoaster of girls, wondering how she can persevere for the years to come. Its for mothers raising young daughters to love Jesus and their family and for moms releasing daughters into the world.Each chapter includes relatable teaching from the authors experiences, Scripture, application questions, action steps, and a reflective prayer. Join September in learning the steps of love and faithfulness for Raising Daughters.Mothers and daughters are like two dance partners who never took dance lessons, and our whole lives are spent trying to keep in step. Just when we think we have the tempo, the balance, have learned to read one anothers moves and have learned the moves, then everything changes. We grow, change, and learn-together, or apart.
