Through Personal Stories and Rich, Biblical Insights, Katie Faris Connects the Dots between Who God Is and Everyday Motherhood

From early mornings to sleepless nights and busy activity schedules in between, motherhood is difficult, sanctifying work. Confronted with the struggles and unknowns of raising children, women are reminded daily of their need for help, and from this awareness comes the heart cry of every mother: a longing to be known and loved through it all.

Having raised 5 children between the ages of 7 and 18, Katie Faris understands the challenges of parenting and the importance of remembering God’s provision and providence. In Every Hour I Need You, she walks with women, helping them contemplate God’s unchanging character and discover how his purposes are at work, even in the everyday moments of motherhood. These 30 brief devotions focus on distinct characteristics of God—including his sovereignty, generosity, and patience—inviting women to know him more through his word, experience deeper spiritual affections and stronger faith, and serve Christ through the care of their families at home. 

  • 30 Brief Devotions: Perfect for busy moms, these short chapters help readers lift their gaze and daily turn to God for strength
  • Personal and Practical: Katie Faris shares stories that will help women draw connections between their own lives and the biblical truths they are studying
  • Excellent Gift for Moms of Every Age: Helps women understand how God’s goodness informs motherhood
  • Each Chapter Features Reflection and Prayer Prompts
