Busy mothers need encouragement, community, and, sometimes, a counselor on speed dial! Dena Dyer — herself a busy young mom — uses real-life stories, scripture, and gentle humor to soothe the souls of frazzled females. By being honest and vulnerable about the ways God has shown Himself to her as she's struggled with motherhood, Dena hopes to help moms realize that they're not alone—and they're not crazy! She says, "I surely don’t have it all together (in fact, I usually can't even find it all), but I do have a Coach who holds me together. And I long to come alongside you as a fellow runner, not an expert, to cheer you on in your daily race."

Endorsements:

With complete honesty and "been there, done that" humor, Dena Dyer's Grace for the Race: Meditations for Busy Moms treats us moms to the very things we need most...understanding, laughter, and soul rest.

Dena Dyer writes this encouraging devotional with vulnerability and wisdom which will refresh the hearts of busy moms in whatever season of life they find themselves.

Dena Dyer's Grace for the Race reminds me of Anne Morrow Lindbergh's Gifts from the Sea. I love her poignant reflections.

---Marsha Marks, author of If I Ignore it, It will Go Away and Other Lies I Thought Were True

As a mother of seven, I appreciate a book that allows me to escape the hectic pace of motherhood and take an oasis break for a moment or two. Dena Dyer has created a delightful haven with words for busy moms. I highly recommend this wonderful book. In one gentle stroke it will lighten your load, rejuvenate your sense of fun, and refresh your spirit. ---Ellie Kay, "America's Financial Expert" (R) and author of eight books including A Woman's Guide to Family Finance.

Conceived as an installation in six consecutive sections, Mary Kelly's Post-Partum Document has been widely exhibited and intensely debated since its first scandalous appearance in the 1970s. Now, more than twenty years later, the Document's initial challenge to conceptual art and its impact on the emerging discourse of sexual difference have taken on a new significance. For many younger artists and critics, the republication of Kelly's artwork in book form will provide the opportunity to engage directly with the visual and intertextual strategies that spawned a generation of "thinking bad girls.".

AN OPEN LETTER TO RUSSELL YATES As the husband of Andrea Yates who drowned her children “to save them from life,” I always thought it was remarkable how you hung in there in the face of that tragedy. You told us what a wonderful wife and mother she was, of her post-partum problems after each baby, so close together. We knew she had nursed them and home-schooled them. And the awful failure of medicine to help! But now you tell us you are dating, and even if she wins acquittal in her new trial and is freed, “I cannot forgive her for what she has done to me.” What do you mean, TO YOU? Whatever she has done to you she has done to herself many times over. Have you forgotten how sick she was? As sick as anyone has ever been…or can ever imagine being!M As the guardian of that family, WHERE WERE YOU? I admit to prejudice and naivety, but I pray for her jury this time will be true peers. At the very least, women. Mothers. Or best of al, those who have “been there.” Remember, Russell, the whole world is watching. MEDICAL NOTE: The simple testing described in this book was the forerunner of several methods which have now proven more useful and less cumbersome…and would eventually widen the handling of such important disorders as CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES, CHRONIC FATIGUE, FIBROMYALGIA, ASTHMA, ARTHRITIS, LOSS OF LIBIDO, MENSTRUAL DIFFICULTIES and MENT ILLNESSES such as NEUROSIS, BI-POLAR, TOXIC PSYCHOSIS, AUTISM and SCHIZOPHRENIA.
