Okay this book should be gifted to every mom you know! Because I am a mom of four and needed this book so badly. It was absolutely beautiful! Just wonderfully written. I loved how well it brought to light scripture and the things to really focus on instead. Wonderful job Dana!

Reading this book was like getting a warm hug from a church friend. It does not condone laziness, but acknowledges that even if you want your house to be clean, it might be challenging for you to make that happen (e.g., due to having young children who make a mess they can't clean up yet). Most importantly, the good news of Jesus' grace is preached directly and repeatedly: we can't clean up our house or our lives enough to earn God's love, and we don't have to, because He gives it freely. This book also had an interesting exposition of Proverbs 31 and some other Bible passages. In addition to her compassion and Biblical literacy, I appreciated Mrs. White's humor and authenticity. Even though it's not the specific focus of this book, there are also practical suggestions for how to declutter a house without creating more of a mess. I recommend this thoughtful and helpful book. It left me feeling understood and inspired.

Thank you to NetGalley and W Publishing/Thomas Nelson for the free eARC! I post this review with my honest opinions. This review will be cross-posted to Amazon, Instagram, and Goodreads closer to the book's publication.
