SOS for the MOM by Mirella Acebo

A Christian Mom's Guide to Managing Emotions

What helps you through the emotional journey of motherhood?

SOS for the MOM is a guide for moms of all ages and in all stages of parenting to navigate the many emotional challenges we face in motherhood. In this book, Mirella Acebo addresses ten common “mom emotions” that are experienced today, connecting them to the stories of ten heroic moms in the Bible who likely felt them, too. This book will guide you through the stories of some of the early matriarchs of the Christian faith, including Eve, Sarah, Hagar, Rebekah, Leah, Bathsheba, Mary, and more. Here, these biblical narratives are intertwined with personal accounts from Mirella’s own experiences as a mom. When reading SOS for the MOM, get ready to laugh, cry, and be inspired to be the best parent you can be!

It is dedicated to any mom who has ever felt overwhelmed, anxious, or inadequate in motherhood. Maybe she’s honest enough to admit she’s sometimes a little controlling and impatient too. SOS for the MOM is divided into 10 chapters which correspond to 10 Mom Emotions and 10 Bible Moms we can learn from. Each chapter includes specific Bible verses to reflect on and insightful thoughts from the Life Coach Mom herself.

In this book, you will learn:

• Emotions are a gift, but sometimes they are hard to manage.
• It’s natural for moms to feel a wide range of positive and negative emotions.
• The stories of ten biblical moms who experienced comparable emotions.
• You are not alone. You don’t have to stay stuck. There is always hope.
• Our true SOS comes from above. Ultimately, God is the one who helps us manage our many “mom emotions” – from overwhelm, worry, and guilt, to our controlling and impatient tendencies.

Find hope and comfort in the stories of 10 biblical mothers and see how you can apply faith-filled lessons to your parenting. This is highly-recommended for mothers experiencing emotional difficulties and who are looking for inspiration.
