{"product_id":"2940158587061","title":"God Raising Us: Parenting as a Spiritual Practice","description":"Friends have long supported each other's spiritual growth in such ways. In fact, those early Quaker journal writers--though they wrote little about their own experiences as parents--often used the terms \"nursing mother\" or \"nursing father\" to describe what we would now call \"spiritual friends.\" Their language speaks powerfully to the image of God raising us through the love of other people and implies that the lessons we learn from caring for children can help us to nurture other members of our community as well. I believe we can best fulfill this promise by approaching parenting consciously, by naming it as a spiritual path, and by supporting this path within our meetings. As our children help raise us closer to God, so are we called to raise one another to wholeness.","brand":"Pendle Hill Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47104129859824,"sku":"2940158587061","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940158587061_p0.jpg?v=1764119626","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940158587061","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
