Caring for and raising children is an extremely demanding job. One of the many difficulties it raises is finding the time to practice one's spirituality. If we think of the spiritual life in terms of silence and solitude, does this mean that parents with children must postpone life with God until the kids have left the nest? Renowned practical theologian Bonnie Miller-McLemore's newest book examines how parents can reconceptualize the spiritual life to find God in the midst of all the demands of life with children. The difficulty of this work is that it is targeted at a group of people who have little time to read! I think this book can serve as the basis of a fantastic study for parents at your church.
