More Lifeways: Sharing Parenting & Family Paths (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781869890865)

More Lifeways invites the sharing of experiences of parenting and family paths. Authors write from their hearts, offering readers space for encouragement and support. There are no easy answers to the challenges of parenting. However, learning from each others' experiences can help on the many journeys that different families tread.

This book invites the reader into conversations about matters to question, to explore, and to build on. These include moments for laughter, for joy and for being deeply moved. The authors offer many practical and wise insights to prepare the way ahead.

With the first volume, Lifeways, readers said they "felt met, strengthened, inspired, sometimes saved by the book lying half-read on the bedside table." More Lifeways offers further help--a ready source of help for parents.

Included in this volume are twenty-seven articles on a wide variety of themes relevant to the challenges of modern parenting--for example:

- listening and the art of relationship
