Synopsis

Barbara Mahany writes, "Mothering was my crash course in love. Love of the sort I call Divine. Love in the way we yearn to be loved: Without end. Without question. Without giving in to exhaustion. Love with a big and boundless heart. Love with eyes and ears--and soul--wide open. Love even when it's not so easy."

In Motherprayer, Mahany generously shares personal love letters on the mysteries and gifts of mothering, interspersed with family recipes and gentle essays, all offering beautiful lessons in how to love, and how to love well. In her bracingly honest style, she captures the ephemeral moments of motherhood--the hard, the glorious, the laughter, and the tears--and invites readers to pay attention, cradle our loved ones in prayer, and see the sacred lessons in loving.

These stirring meditations bring into sharp focus one essential question: How do we love breathtakingly?
