Product Description
•••••
The Association of Catholic Publishers gave this inspiring book first place in the general interest category, while the Catholic Media Association gave it second place in the family life area.
Many Catholics will know Mark Hart as the vibrant youth preacher with all of the correct answers on becoming and remaining Catholic. After fifteen years, Mark and his wife Melanie have four children and discover that, despite all of their counsel, there is no one recipe for raising a happy, holy family. The Harts share genuine, real, and down-to-earth counsel from their experience in the trenches of parenting in Our Not-Quite-Holy Family.
Do you believe you've done all the necessary efforts to raise God-fearing children, but your children are tuning you out? Are you attempting to find out how to establish a holy family while being "normal" and human? If so, Our Not-So-Holy Family will provide you with comfort, encouragement, honesty, humour, and, most importantly, practical insight.
The Harts' book, which is chock-full of hilarious tales about their experience raising four children, reminds Catholics that being a good parent entails taking the time to get to know—and genuinely enjoy—your children. You'll discover informed perspectives on a variety of parenting themes.
Including:
- becoming a proactive, emotionally-present parent,
- healing personal wounds before they emerge in your parenting,
- parenting with your spouse as a team while maintaining intimacy in marriage,
- praying as a family without coercing your children,
- managing screen time, social media, and demanding schedules, and
- picking your battles and being a good listener.
Each chapter addresses common shortcomings and challenges encountered by Catholic parents, as well as recommendations and ideas to consider and pray about as a pair, as well as resources or activities to pursue as a couple or family.
Our Not-Quite-Holy Family is a book for Catholics at every stage of the parenting journey—the Harts have children in college, high school, middle school, and elementary school—and it gives parents a pat on the back for doing a good job—regardless of what everyone else says "good Catholic parenting" should look like.
