With Mother’s Day just around the corner, I wanted to share with you a fun resource. Lyn Kirkland has written a delightful book titled, The Lighted Path: 101 Practical Lessons Using God’s Word As Guidance for Parents, Grandparents, And Anyone Who Loves Children.
The first part that grabbed me, of course, was the beautiful benediction in the title. Teaching children about the Word of God is not just for parents (though they should!) and not just for grandparents (yet what influence they have!) but it is also for anyone who loves children. (a.k.a. me!)
This beautifully bound book is formatted in convenient devotional-length chapters. It would make a lovely gift for a friend, mother, daughter or grandmother (and that covers just about everyone, eh? 😉 ) this Mother’s Day.
And, yay! Olive Press Publishing has graciously offered a giveaway copy for my readers!
So, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty. To enter the giveaway:

Thank you, Natasha, for introducing me to this author and this book. I would love to receive a copy. If I don’t get it, I’ll put it in my shopping cart and maybe I’ll get it for Mother’s Day! I’m happy, too, that you were included in the title. That’s very sweet. I was single for so long (and I loved on my nieces and nephews) that I still feel the responsibility to include the “childless women on Mother’s Day. They are often mothering someone(s). 🙂

This is a book of practical, common sense tips on enriching your children’s lives! I have read and re-read the book. I have been most closely involved with Lyn’s methods of enhancing young lives through compassion and the love of Jesus. You see, Lyn is my sister and we were blessed to grow up in a most loving family. My sisters and I had the most wonderful Mama and Daddy!
Love you, Lyn.
