About this listen
They told her she was a nobody. Grandma told her to be clear and sincere.
With manuscripts in hand, publishers praised her work but told her she was a nobody. Disappointed and not sure where to turn, Brenda struggled to write. She creatively avoided what she felt was her life's purpose and planned a safe alternative career to becoming an author. Learning from our ancestors and the legacy her grandma left, Brenda A. Haire walks you through a process to trash the lies and treasure the truths to transform your legacy. Grandma knew her worth, and in Save the Butter Tubs, you'll journey with Brenda discovering hers. Instead of wondering if you matter, you will be able to:
- See how God directs your steps
- Feel like you belong
- Use fear as a guide
- Turn rejection into reason
- Create your victory channel
- Move from your comfort zone
- Serve others with your gifts
A bit of memoir, biography, autobiography, history, and self-help, this book will help you learn to love discipline, set aside "busy", and find freedom to live fearlessly.
"Powerful. Inspiring. Personal. Vulnerable." (Alex Velarde, lead pastor, LifePoint Fellowship Church)
"Save the Butter Tubs shares a powerful message of realization that we are enough and have enough to leave an indispensable legacy." (Andrea Fehr, author of Freaking Out to Flying Free)
"WARNING: Don't pick this book up thinking you'll read a little here and there. Once you start, your heart will be drawn to this personal journey and God's desire to write the next chapter through your life as He has mine." (Ken Hicks, lead pastor, Heights Community Church #WorthSaving)

Almost any parent you asked would tell you that they want their children to be happy, successful adults. But many of us forget (or never knew to begin with) that lasting personal joy is not necessarily found the way the world says it is - through reaching a certain socioeconomic status, having a certain job, buying a certain house, or having a certain amount in one's bank account. In fact, says Kristen Welch, author of Raising Grateful Kids in an Entitled World, personal satisfaction comes not from grabbing onto things but from holding them with an open hand and, very often, giving them away.

In The Hardest Peace, Kara doesn’t offer answers for when living is hard, but rather she asks us to join her in moving away from fear and control and toward peace and grace. Most of all, she draws us back to the God who is with us in the mundane and the suffering, and who shapes even our unmet expectations and pain into beauty.

For mothers of young children, this audiobook is a lovely offering of hope, truth, freedom, wild grace, friendship, and the knowledge that they are not alone. Many moms have dreamed of life with children, and yet the reality seems far away from their dreams. Their hearts are committed, but their spirits are sagging. This audiobook is a coffee-talk from one woman who is still “figuring-it-out-in-the-mess” (Sarah Mae) and much-needed counsel from one who is older and wiser (Sally Clarkson).

Story
Finding grace in the everyday…Kara Tippetts knows the ordinary days of mothering four kids, the joy of watching her children grow . . . and the devastating reality of stage IV cancer. In The Hardest Peace, Kara doesn’t offer answers for when living is hard, but rather she asks us to join her in moving away from fear and control and toward peace and grace. Most of all, she draws us back to the God who is with us in the mundane and the suffering, and who shapes even our unmet expectations and pain into beauty.

For mothers of young children, this audiobook is a lovely offering of hope, truth, freedom, wild grace, friendship, and the knowledge that they are not alone. Many moms have dreamed of life with children, and yet the reality seems far away from their dreams. Their hearts are committed, but their spirits are sagging. This audiobook is a coffee-talk from one woman who is still “figuring-it-out-in-the-mess” (Sarah Mae) and much-needed counsel from one who is older and wiser (Sally Clarkson).

Words are one of the most powerful forces in the universe, and they can be used for good or evil. When God created our world, He did so with words. He said Let there be...and it was so. While our words cannot bring into existence things that are not, they do have the power to build courage into a husband's life, instill confidence into a child's heart, fan into flames the dying embers of a friend's smoldering dreams, and draw the lost to Christ. This book is for every woman who desires to use her words to build up rather than tear down....

Story
Are you ever concerned that you don’t deserve to love and be loved because you are continually having to prove yourself? In You Are Beloved, Bobby Schuller shows you how to let go of these fears and put your trust in the One who sees you for who you really are. Here is an easy to follow, proven path to personal dignity for all those who think they are not good enough no matter how much they achieve. This path is illuminated by the truths that it is not about what you accomplish, but what has already been accomplished for you; not about what you have, but what has already been provided; and not about who others say you are, but who God says you are. Know that you are valued, cared for, and embraced. You Are Beloved will help you rebuild your life as a response to that assurance.

The Digital Age is all about change, but the need for true friendship never changes. We are designed for real engagement with others - for affirmation that goes beyond a simple "like" on social media, for connection over meals, for hope and excitement about the future. Above all, we need to be known and accepted for who we are.
