Book Description

February 1996
WARNING: This is NOT another how-to-be-a-better-mom book, full of lists and impossible goals. Instead, Diapers, Pacifiers, and Other Holy Things is for:

•every mother who has cried out to God that she no longer has to time to spend with Him.
•every mother who needs to be reminded that she is valuable.
•every mother who wants to laugh or cry over the ups and downs of life with preschoolers.
•every mother who enjoys her children and responsibilities, but just needs a break.

Each of the thirty-one short chapters will tickle your funny bone or touch your heart, challenge your thinking, and inspire within you the need to walk more closely with your God.

Lorraine Pintus writes from her experiences with her two young daughters. She contributes to many Christian magazines, speaks at conferences, is active in MOPS, and, along with her husband Pete, leads Hearts at Home Ministries marriage seminars. The Pintus family lives in Colorado.

More About the Author

Lorraine grew up in a small town farming community in Nebraska where a traffic jam constituted a car trying to pass two combines. She developed a love for writing early in life and by age twelve, she'd published her first newspaper. Ranch Happenings debuted with a rivoting expose about a bull snake run down and killed by grandpa's tractor mower and a food review highlighting Grandma's Golden Grilled Cheese sandwiches.
Lorraine graduated from the University of Nebraska with a degree in journalism and a minor in public relations. After college, she dabbled in politics where she served as a registered lobbyist and later as a press manager for a gubernatorial candidate. After the election, she traded politics for potato chips and became media relations manager for Frito-Lay/PepsiCo., Inc, where she coordinated a 60 Minutes interview with Andy Rooney, worked with the Dallas Cowboys on a weekly TV commercial series, and had a constant supply of free Fritos and Pepsi. Later, she married and moved out west where she worked as promotion manager for the University of California, Irvine.
Lorraine, a writer, speaker and writing coach, has written many books and magazine articles on a variety of topics. Woven in her messages is the thread of faith . . . that with God, all things are possible. (see websites, www.intimeissues.com and www.lorrainepintus.com).

I am the mother of two small children and LOVED this book. Lorriane relates to moms everywhere. I didn't feel so everwhelmed after reading her book. A must have for the new mom library

5.0 out of 5 stars Must Read for Parents of all Stages, February 23, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Diapers, Pacifiers, and Other Holy Things (Paperback)
I read this in one sitting. Though the settings are drawn from early-parent situations, I think it would be enriching for anyone who remembers. The inspiration and comic relief can touch anyone who longs to discover God's peace and love in each busy day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly meaningful and helpful., February 7, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Diapers, Pacifiers, and Other Holy Things (Paperback)
At first I went through and read the stories quickly, laughed, cried, etc. Then I gave it a deeper reading, using the devotional suggestions, and it really did help bring me closer to my Lord. It spoke to me specifically as a mom, helped me see that role as work for God. Wonderful.
