Church Life

Introducing the real-life stories of 10 Christian mothers whose unrelenting faith sustains wonderful families. Get this eBook with 10 unique features narrating the faith struggles and happy lives of Christian mothers in Asia.

The real backbone of the Church in Asia (and the rest of the world, for that matter) is Christian mothers. The faith of Christian mothers and their dedication to families is always a compelling story.

In Asia, millions of mothers have left their children behind to support their families by work as near-slaves in foreign lands. In much of the continent, the trials of motherhood are worsened by discrimination and even persecution against them as religious or ethnic minorities or members of a low caste or social group.

Indeed, Christian mothers are unheralded heroines of the Church who keep and pass on faith in Christ. This may be especially so in places where they are least noticed by the world at large: in rural areas, in marginalized societies. They are unsung, but fully worthy of recognition and praise they do not seek.

This series introduces you to the finest examples of great, loving Christian mothers whose and faith dedication are driving their families.
