Synopsis

What do moms thirst for even more than coffee? Moms want to know they matter, that they make a difference. They want to know they are not alone in their parenting experience and that their lives have purpose. They want to see their children prosper. They want a full cup. Celeste Palermo gives moms more than a jolt of caffeine with these humorous, yet poignant, brief devotions easily read while on the run. Moms juggling cups of coffee will relate to her coffee related stories and insights on such basic needs as affirmation, purpose, good health, and eternal life. "Coffee Talk," "Common Grounds," and "A Perfect Cup" sections provide quotes, Scripture references, and interviews with coffee-drinking moms offering insight and inspiration. "Soul Sip Solutions" offer questions to encourage reflection and response. After reading The Coffee Mom's Devotional, moms will be reminded that caffeine can never sustain us, only Jesus can.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

We’ve all done it—relied on a jolt of caffeine to get us through another crazy day of juggling kids, hubby, errands, friends, meetings, laundry . . . the list goes on and on. A dark-roasted double shot of pick-me-up sounds (and smells!) like just the thing to help you find the end of the to-do list. But something in the back of your mind whispers, There's got to be more to life than just "making it." I want a full cup!
Each short, mommy-friendly reading in The Coffee Mom's Devotional is a reminder to drink in the fullness of God, allowing Him to sustain and enrich your life and fill it to overflowing. Whether you prefer coffee, diet soda, chai tea or Red Bull, there is something better—or rather, Someone better—to quench your thirst for abundant life. So grab a cup of your favorite beverage and get ready for a jolt of God's powerful, life-giving presence!
