Product Description

Ordinary Mum Extraordinary Mission is Anna France-Williams & Joy French’s enlightening encouragement for busy mums with a passion to follow God and kthe heart to be part of his mission to the world.

In this book the writers of ‘Soul Food for Women’ invite you to explore what mission looks like for you - a normal, busy mum. But how ever ordinary you think you are, the truth is that you’re called to serve a truly extraordinary God; the God who calls you to be a part of his mission.

Building the extraordinary out of the ordinary, the authors help you rediscover and re-energise your dreams of how you'd make a difference to the world and how you'd change it for the better.

Assuring you that mission isn’t only for some kind of 'special Christian' - one who is extra holy and knows the Bible backwards, this book will renew your passion to serve God in your own situation. With practical help and stories from the lives of women who have begun to do just that, this where your extraordinary mission begins too.

    Epilogue

'I wanted to change the world, but I couldn't find a babysitter.'

School runs, packed lunches, play-dates, date night, nappy changes, homework, football, deadlines, bedtime stories, supermarket runs, peace-keeping, juice and biscuits, park trips, the runs, toddler groups, coffee drinking, mum's taxi, potty training, kiss-it-better. These are our lives.

Like you, we are busy mums who want to follow God. We want to be part of his mission to the world.

Perhaps you had big dreams of how you'd make a difference to the world, how you'd change it for the better. But now all you can think about is the next feed.
Or perhaps you think mission is only for 'special Christians' who are extra holy and know their Bible backwards - and you feel that just ticking off each day on the calendar is an achievement.

Wherever you are, whatever you feel, we hope this book will renew your passion to serve God in your own situation. We'd like to share some stories from women who have begun to do just that.

And we want to invite you to explore what mission looks like for a normal mum. Because however ordinary we are, we serve an extraordinary God, and he calls us all to be a part of his mission to transform the earth, bring his kingdom, redeem a new humanity and build his church.
