Worshipping Our Children

IDOLS OF A MOTHER’S HEART
By
Christina Fox
Christian Focus. 191 pages. £7.99
ISBN 978 1 527 102 330

In this book Christina Fox tackles the issue that affects every mother as we look to be good parents to our children.

Christina recognises that each of us has the tendency to want success and happiness for our children. She demonstrates that we fail, however, to understand how these things can grow to become idols, thereby replacing our primary calling to put God and our service for Him first. She challenges readers to stop looking for life and purpose in our children and to recognise how parenting is used by God to bring about holiness in our own lives.
