Life can pull at us from all different directions—laundry is calling; the kids spilled the milk again; the husband needs you to pick him up from the office.
We moms can get so drained as we strive to juggle all the things that sometimes, we forget to stop and rest in the gift of roses and honeysuckle that God has sent to us in our own backyard.
Take some deep breaths with Bonica Brown, who has found what her soul has been thirsting for in God’s Word and in the gift of His roses and honeysuckle. With examples of her own imperfect life, Bonica points the reader to Scripture to find beauty in the mess of kissing boo-boos, cleaning up a sick child, and trying to look like a family who has it altogether for Sunday morning church.
If you have ever needed a friend to walk through the ups and downs of motherhood with you, Bonica is waiting for you to introduce you to her very Best Friend, Jesus Christ, through Roses and Honeysuckle: Finding God in the Midst of Ordinary Life.
