There are many books on motherhood but not many that talk about how hard it is – physically, mentally, and spiritually – and what to do when you reach your limits.
When Liz Wann became a mother, she was unprepared for how hard it would be. In this book, she writes honestly about these deeply challenging aspects of motherhood and how God works through them to make us more like his Son.
“Coming to the end of who I was, and what motherhood was stripping me of, was a good thing that drove me to Christ and to the power that he supplies in every failure and weakness of motherhood.”
...This short, easy-to-read book encourages mothers to depend on Christ when they reach their limits. They will find that God will supply what they need to cope with the daily sacrifices and challenges of motherhood, and that he will use these struggles to make them more like Christ.
Liz has been involved with the ministries of Risen Motherhood and Revive Our Hearts, writing about how God has been working in her life through the hardships of motherhood.

Good help to those going through those tough times of transforming from a "free" lady to a "never free" mother. Good and suggestive verses - with applications - to consider.

I laughed, I cried, and I held my own child just a little tighter after reading Liz Wann's book! EVERY mother needs to read this book.
'The End of Me' is an excellent book and I have recommended it to a number of other mums since reading it. I found it so relevant to how I felt as a mum when my role changed and how it affected my identity. Loved how it brought my focus back to Christ and finding my identity and purpose in him.
