Hemos intentado el uso de penitencias, la suspensión de salidas y la corrección física. Pero aun así los jovencitos no cambian. Tal vez seria oportuno probar nuevas estrategias. Cuando la corrección se lleva a cabo de manera creativa, resulta más provechosa para el niño y para los padres. ¡Y llega a ser más eficaz a la hora de producir resultados a largo plazo! ¿Nuestros hijos han estado: • ¿Actuando irrespetuosamente? • ¿Mintiendo? • ¿Quejándose? • ¿Desordenándole todo? Para estas y otras situaciones que enfrentamos como padres, Lisa Whelchel nos ofrece ideas nuevas que nos ayudaran a ganar la batalla de la disciplina.

Do you long for a true friend?

"Isn''t that what we all want? To be seen, in all our glory, for better or worse, the good, the bad, and the ugly and still be embraced?"

If only such friendships were easy to find. And keep. For Lisa Whelchel and millions of others, friendship is a challenge. The vulnerability, trust, balance, grace, and time required to develop and maintain strong friendships do not come easily.

Growing up as an actress in Hollywood, there were few people Lisa could trust, and even fewer to guide her. By the time she reached adulthood, she had learned to be self-sufficient. She was strong, she was “safe,” and she was lonely.

One day, Lisa found that “the desire to experience connection was stronger than the desire to be safe.” She determined right then to finally understand friendship: how to create one, sustain it, and experience the sheer joy of having it. But it wasn’t easy.

Since then, she has traveled the ups and downs of friendship, learning about herself, others, and the kinds of friendship God designed.

A speaker, teacher, and compelling storyteller, Lisa writes from her heart and her head, sharing her story and helping women understand how to cope with the strengths and weaknesses of friendship, and basing all her advice on the foundation of our ultimate relationship with the Savior.

In this guide to prayer for busy mothers, Lisa Whelchel shares the wisdom she has gained as a busy mom to help you set aside just ten minutes a day and learn to make a difference in your, your family, and your world through the power of prayer. Prayer is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself and those you love, but if you are like most busy moms, hectic schedules and over-filled days interfere with your best intentions. As a pastor’s wife, author, mom of three, and Grammy nominated songwriter, Lisa Whelchel knows exactly what it feels like to struggle with the guilt that comes from not spending enough time in prayer. As a result, and to help other mothers like herself, she created this guided prayer journal which will lead you through prayer in six categories—praise, self, husband, children, personal influences, and reaching beyond—in just ten minutes a day.

In an effort to make a difference that will last an eternity in the lives of grandmothers, their children, and grandchildren, Lisa Whelchel, author, Grammy nominated songwriter, pastor’s wife, and mom of three, teams up with her mother to craft a simple guide to help even the busiest of grandmas develop a simple and stable prayer schedule. Probably more than anyone, grandmas know the value of investing time and love in the lives of their children and grandchildren. Sometimes, though, even a grandma’s busy schedule can get in the way of what her heart wants to do. Determined to find a way for grandmas to have it all, Lisa Whelchel and her mother, the grandmother of her children, teamed up to create a guided prayer journal for the busy grandma, including a simple plan that takes only ten minutes a day for twenty days a month. Before they know it, grandmas will have said 120 power-filled prayers that will impact the lives of their children and grandchildren for years to come.
