Bumps, Babies and the Gospel - Preparing your heart for parenting in pregnancy and beyond

Parenting is perhaps the most all-consuming, life-altering role you will ever undertake. Getting your heart ready for what is about to happen is perhaps one of the most important things you can do. In Bumps, Babies and the Gospel, Sarah Dargue will take you through the book of Colossians and help you to see that there is no better preparation for having a baby and beginning the parenting journey, than what we are offered in Christ Himself. This book is the antenatal class you need above all else — an antenatal class for your heart.

“In Bumps, Babies, and the Gospel, Sarah Dargue provides a remarkably beneficial resource for parents anticipating the birth of a child. Dargue skilfully applies rich gospel truths from the book of Colossians to the particular challenges of caring for a newborn. She demonstrates a keen awareness of the heart struggles so common to these early months of a baby’s life (exhaustion, comparison, loss of identity, hormonal changes, among others), and writes with sensitivity and realism about using these struggles to drive us to the cross of Christ and His inexhaustible resources. Couples are encouraged to read, pray, and answer questions together, which will certainly draw husbands and wives together. I recommend this book highly, and look forward to giving copies to expectant parents.” Jodi Ware, Southern Seminary Wives Institute, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
