Having time with Jesus shouldn’t be just one more thing to do.

Sometimes, being a mom seems like one never ending to-do list. Laundry, housework, kid patrol, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. You are super busy and sometimes even overwhelmed. But you are also young, strong, and brilliant. And guess what? Many of the things on your list of expectations are things that Jesus never expected you to do on your own.

In OUT OF THE SPIN CYCLE, Ms. Hatmaker takes a verse or a story of Jesus, and adds the humor of a mom’s life in order to offer grace and encouragement.

Ms. Hatmaker covers areas such as worry, marriage, priorities, money, the comparison trap, and others to bring Jesus’ message in short, to-the-point devotionals.

If you are a busy mom with little time to spend in deep Bible studies, then perhaps OUT OF THE SPIN CYCLE would be a good book to consider. There are questions included for you to ponder at the end of each devotional. If you are looking for a more in-depth Bible study or devotional, then look further. This book is ideal for mom’s of preschoolers who are busy chasing after babies. Short and to-the-point with a measure of encouragement. $11.99. 175 pages.
