Review and Giveaway: Mom Connection

Image Source: amazon

Giveaway is now closed.

I was super psyched about getting the book Mom Connection: Creating Vibrant Relationships in the Midst of Motherhood by Tracey Bianchi to review (and give away, check out the info below) especially since I just attended the MOPS leadership summit recently. We are finishing up our 2011-2012 MOPS year, and heading into planning for next year. The theme is Plunge: Love as if your life depended on it. It’s all about relationships! This is the theme book for the year, and it has some great practical ideas on how we can grow our relationships with those around us. You can read more about Mom Connection over at our review blog.

About the Book
In this witty, encouraging book, Tracey Bianchi guides moms on a journey toward celebrating and discovering the underlying rhythm of their lives and how that rhythm pulls them into vibrant relationships. Through stories of her own life as a mom and the experiences of others, she shows moms how to gracefully engage the people who cross their paths rather than viewing others as tasks on a list. She also offers a way to find balance in this busy exercise called motherhood.

About the Author
Tracey Bianchi is an over-caffeinated, thirty-something living in a suburb near Chicago. She’s a sought after communicator and has contributed to a variety of publications and organizations from Sojourners to MOPS International, from The Washington Post to her first book via Zondervan. Tracey is an activist with a passion for environmental justice and advocacy for women and girls in the developing world. She also serves on pastoral staff at Christ Church of Oak Brook (a congregation of 2000+) where she helps coordinate a contemporary worship community as well as teaching and preaching regularly. She has three children, a rockstar husband, and had a goldfish named Stinky Pete that recently met his fate by jumping ship and landing on the kitchen floor.
