Synopsis

Combining modern research, personal stories, professional experience, and real-life examples, Jeannie Cunnion shows parents how to embrace God's grace and let go of the pressures—external and internal—that come with raising children.

Moms are under So. Much. Pressure.

We moms are told that we have to get it all right so our kids turn out right. We're told that their entire futures are riding on our ability to perfectly orchestrate their lives. And we're told that the strength of their faith hinges on ours. And we begin to believe that if we just try hard enough, we can actually "be enough."

These impossible standards leave us stuck in worry, anger, guilt, comparison, and shame.

Jeannie Cunnion gets it. And in Mom Set Free she reveals how the Good News of the Gospel empowers us to live—and parent—in the freedom for which Christ has set us free.

Jeannie invites us to journey alongside her as we learn to:

● Lay down what God has not asked us to carry so we can thrive in what He has.

● Embrace our significance in our children's lives in light of God’s sovereignty.

● Trust God with the children He has entrusted to us.

● Receive God’s grace so we can reflect God’s heart to our kids.

Goodreads review by Christina on April 18, 2018

I don’t agree with every little thing in this book- especially her wide wide range of Bible versions used. However, her premise has some powerful truth in parenting from a position of Spirit-filled grace not control. Not perfection, but a parent in pursuit of God (my child must see this). This is a......more

Goodreads review by Taylor on December 26, 2023

I read this for a mother's Bible study and am debating between 2 and 3 stars. While I did have a couple of good realizations while reading the book, it does not show an ability to rightly divide Scripture. It repeatedly uses The Message translation for verses that are theologically rich and importan......more

Such a beautiful reminder of God’s Grace for us. That when we accept His grace in our lives, we are free to pour that grace into our children and spouses as well. This parenting this is TOUGH but He never leaves our side. Just pray! 😍......more

Goodreads review by Tina "IRead2Escape" on January 08, 2020

I really enjoyed Mom Set Free. It not only gave me great tips for giving myself a break when it comes to the pressures of we put on ourselves about motherhood, but it just brought me closer to God in general. The only reason I gave this book 3 stars instead of 4 is because it got a little monotonous......more
