"A visceral, moving, and profoundly insightful book"Motherhood is overwhelming, tender, exhausting, and beautiful--and can feel like a spiritual desert. But what if motherhood offers us an entirely new understanding of who God is?In Love like a Mother, Elizabeth Berget gently invites us to rediscover the God of the Bible as the one who gestates, births, nourishes, comforts, and protects: just like a mother. Weaving together rich and encouraging scriptural insights with relatable stories from her own life as a mom, Berget shows how mothers uniquely bear the image of God in the sacred ordinary of everyday life--even in the middle of dishes, diapers, and sleepless nights."Where has this book been all my life? I don't say this lightly: Elizabeth Berget has unlocked a profound new framework for viewing the love of God. I want to get this book into the hands of every mother I know."--Ashlee Gadd, author of Create Anyway; founder of Coffee + Crumbs"I believe we all benefit from seeing God beyond exclusively masculine imagery, and Love like a Mother is an excellent guide. A gift for anyone who wants to know God better."--Meredith Miller, pastor; author of Woven: Nurturing a Faith Your Kid Doesn't Have to Heal From"A visceral, moving, and profoundly insightful book. I found myself nourished and seen; my heart expanded with love for my children, for other mothers, and for God."--Chine McDonald, writer, broadcaster, director of the UK religion and society think tank Theos, and author of Unmaking Mary: Shattering the Myth of Perfect Motherhood
