During what can be a demanding and confusing season of life for many women, Living Beloved offers young mothers a chance to grow in their identity as children of God simply by observing their own little ones. By examining the simple characteristics of a child―transparency, trust, joy, boldness, and more―moms will learn to see their relationship with God their Father in a new way.

Author Erin Hawley encourages Christian moms to view early motherhood as a wonderful tutoring session from God, as a lesson in how to grow closer to Him and live “beloved” as His child. The biblical insights and personal stories will renew readers, help them move closer to the Lord, and enjoy life as His child during the everyday routine of mamahood. This insightful and warm-hearted book will nourish a mom’s soul as she nourishes her children.

Living Beloved helps young mothers develop a stronger sense of identity as children of God, leading to renewed strength, grace, and wisdom for the journey of motherhood.

Review

If you are a mom with young children, put this book by your Bible and read it! If you are a mentor of young moms, use this book in a study with them. With humor and honesty, Hawley gives us a treasure chest full of new insights about God’s personal love, a fresh awareness of what our children can teach us, and the sweet companionship of a ‘friend who gets me!’ Susan Alexander Yates, Speaker and author of And Then I Had Kids: Encouragement for Mothers of Young Children

From the Back Cover

Through the stress of motherhood, God is inviting you to live as His child.
Caring for your little ones is exhausting. Chances are you’ve had plenty of times when your memory is foggy, your patience is fraying, and you long for a good night’s sleep. So if you also long for refreshing times with the Lord, what do you do?

During author Erin Hawley’s difficult transition to motherhood, God provided her with spiritual nourishment from a surprising place―her own children. As she studied how her toddlers related to her, she learned to see her relationship with God the Father in a whole new way.

And now God is inviting you to see Him in a new way, too.

Filled with biblical insight, the author’s honest stories, and thoughtful reflection questions, this encouraging book will nourish your soul as you nourish your children.

Erin Hawley is a wife, mom to two small boys, practicing lawyer, and professor of law.

Keeping this on my nightstand to read again and again

Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2019

What a marvelous gift Hawley has given each of us! This entire book felt like a conversation with a good friend. Hawley's way of writing is comforting and approachable as she teaches you new ways to view your relationship with God through the lens of children. I have two young toddlers, and, as I read this book, I found myself thinking differently -- in a good way -- about my interactions with them. Mundane tasks or challenging moments became treasure hunts as I learned to look for God speaking to me through my own children's actions. I read this book sometimes only 2 pages at a time because 1) the example she wrote about was so meaningful I wanted to ponder it or 2) I was so tired after a long day of work and mothering that I couldn't keep my eyes open for any more! But that's one of the best parts of the book -- it can be read that way and can easily be picked up from wherever you left off. I have already gifted several people this book. It would make a great baby shower gift or a "tired and worn out mama" needing encouragement gift. It is a book that I would easily give to a young or seasoned Christian, a new mama or one with children who have left the nest, as the simplest lessons are the most profound. After all, Jesus did say that unless we become like children we cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven. Thanks to Hawley's book, I'm learning to see myself more like a beloved child of the Father, just as (and even more than) I love my babies.

"Children teach us to be comfortable with dependency, to anticipate & wonder & praise, live all-in!"

Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2018

Erin's beautifully written reflections, anchored with meaningful scripture and touching stories, enabled me to feel more known and loved by the Lord. I laughed, I cried and I felt deeply beloved by my Abba Father. Her words restored my childhood delight & wonder and gave me new, practical ways to connect with God! With her precious sons' perspective of childlike faith, interwoven with poignant examples from scripture, I learned new ways to worship, praise, boldly pray, and rest in Him! Buy this book for anyone you love or anyone who has loved you! Encouraging read for the new parent grappling with the exhaustion and transition parenthood brings. Brings renewal for a seasoned parent or grandparent needing refreshment and connection to their Creator. Jesus loved the little children and often used them to illustrate how we were to love God, Erin brings Christ's ancient words to us again with a mother's touch and heart!

So far I have truly loved this book even though my children are grown. However, it is a book of faith thoughts that are applicable to any age. Terrific writing.

Great book for all who desire to be beloved by Jesus

Jesus calls us to be childlike in our faith (Mark 10:14-16). Erin shows that we can learn from children how we should turn to our creator for trust, joy, rest, and so much more. This book is not just for mothers of young children, it is great for all who desire to live beloved by Jesus.

Does Not Explain Her Treasonous Inclinations

Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2021

No insight provided into her decision to support and encourage seditionists. I wonder if she is unable to articulate her disavowal of the principles of the Constitution. Her writing is simplistic in nature - perhaps an indication of the ease in which she turned against the United States.
