On this episode Joy and Adam talked with author Catherine McNiel. Catherine is the author of Long Days of Small Things (Navpress). Catherine survived her children’s preschool years by learning to find beauty in the mayhem. Now, she writes to open the eyes of weary moms to God’s creative, redemptive work in each day. Catherine serves alongside her husband in a community-based ministry, while she cares for three kids, works two jobs, and grows one enormous garden.

More about Long Days of Small Things:

Dirty laundry, crayon-smeared bills, and smashed crackers . . . And there’s your Bible—buried under a pile of diapers. Bleary-eyed from lack of sleep, without a moment of peace and quiet, you wonder if the spiritual life you crave is even possible. But God sees you. He designed this parenting journey, after all. He understands the chaos of motherhood. And he joins you in everything—whether you’re scrubbing the floor, nursing a fussy newborn, or driving to soccer practice. Catherine McNiel invites you to connect with God right here, in the sacred mundane of every mothering moment. Buy Now>>
