On the bookshelf this week at the farm

Annie’s first book, Cradled: Christ’s Care for Postpartum Moms, is brimming with rich gospel insights and hard-won wisdom from the trenches of motherhood. Through eight chapters tying into the everyday caretaking tasks of this season (feeding, washing, changing, and more), along with reflection questions and guided prayers, Cradled equips young moms to process their experiences in light of the gospel and rest in the nurturing care of Christ.

Hardcover with a gilt finish, beautiful ribbon, and original artwork by Patsy Shaw throughout, Cradledmakes the perfect gift to wrap up at your next baby shower, tuck alongside a meal delivery, or add to your own midnight nursing station. Grab your copy today! 

Tim Ross is a host of the popular podcasts The Basement, speaker, and truth-teller who has a rare gift for naming what many of us feel but struggle to articulate. 

In The Missing Peace, he invites readers into a deeper, more honest faith one that doesn’t bypass pain, but walks through it with God.

Friend, don’t just skim past this message—sit with it. 

Let it do its work.

And if your heart is whispering, “I need this,”—that’s your invitation.
