Believe it or not, the Catholic family isn’t primarily a human institution. It’s a divine one. By uniting with the sacramental life of the Church, your common, ordinary, crazy family becomes something sacred, a “domestic church." Family therapist and parent Gregory Popcak and his wife, Lisa, are back with Parenting Your Kids with Grace. Building on their best-selling book Parenting with Grace, first published twenty years ago, this new volume draws on the same parenting principles and provides up-to-date research to guide parents through each stage of child development from birth to age ten. Practical, faithful, and humorous, Parenting Your Kids with Grace addresses four key questions: Are Catholic families called to be different from other families in the way we relate to one another in the home? If so, how? What does an authentic, family-based approach to Catholic spirituality look like in practice? What can the latest research tell us about creating a faithful home and raising faithful kids? How can Catholic families be outposts of evangelization and positive social change? By checking our basic assumptions about parenting against both the Church’s vision and what science can teach about living out that vision in healthy ways, we can discover God’s plan for parenting healthy, godly kids.

'Your next must-read' LUCY FOLEY 'Absolutely brilliant plotting' ANN CLEEVES The darkest truths should never surface . . . DI Matt Lockyer has been side-lined to working cold cases, following a bad decision he made in a recent investigation. Lockyer isn't too bothered though, as it gives him the chance to look into his own brother's senseless killing which still remains unsolved. On a quiet afternoon Lockyer receives a phone call from prisoner Hedy Lambert - a woman he put inside for murder fourteen years ago. She informs him that the man she was originally accused of killing has turned up alive and well. She begs him to reopen her case. All those years ago, Lockyer had been the one to pin down Hedy's motive, but deep down he'd never wanted to believe she was guilty. The thought that he might have sent an innocent woman to prison disturbs him, so Lockyer agrees to investigate. But has it become too personal and is he being manipulated? Perhaps there are some cases that should just stay buried. ******************************* *Praise for Stay Buried* 'Gloriously atmospheric' ELLY GRIFFITHS 'The twists were terrific' GYTHA LODGE 'A well-written deftly plotted whodunnit' GUARDIAN 'Remarkably assured' LITERARY REVIEW 'Accomplished, twisty' WOMAN AND HOME *Readers are loving Stay Buried* 'Held my interest right to the very last plot twist - and what a twist!' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'I can't wait for the next instalment' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Loved this book, was gripped from the start and couldn't put it down' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Great plot and fabulous characters' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
