Calming Your Anxious Child: A Biblical Game Plan for Parenting Through Big Emotions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780802439871)

Over 40 million people in the U.S. struggle with anxiety disorders--and that number takes on a deeper meaning when you're parenting one of them.

As parents, we carry the hearts of our children. When they hurt, we hurt. More and more, we're seeing young kids overwhelmed by fear and worry. Anxiety has become part of our everyday vocabulary. It's rising in our kids' hearts and spilling into homes.

Fear and panic can quickly turn a peaceful day into one filled with chaos. Emotional outbursts and constant worry can drain the joy from your home. But there is hope for your hurting child.

Calming Your Anxious Child offers a biblical game plan for loving and parenting children through fear and anxiety. As a mom of five, Micah Maddox understands the deep emotional and spiritual labor of caring for an anxious child. Within these pages, you'll find encouragement, renewed perspective, and practical tools to face each day with grace and strength.

Designed for busy and overwhelmed parents, this easy-to-read book is divided into three powerful sections:

• Section 1: Game Plan for the Body
• Section 2: Game Plan for the Mind
• Section 3: Game Plan for the Soul

Parenting an anxious child is not easy--but it is sacred work. And it's worth every effort. Anxiety does not have to rule your heart or your home. Rooted in God's truth, this book will help you build confidence in who God is and what He can do.

Calming Your Anxious Child is more than a parenting guide--it's a whole-child approach to navigating fear and anxiety with faith, purpose, and peace.
