Her new book is “For the Love: Fighting for Grace in a World of Impossible Standards” Best-selling author Jen Hatmaker is convinced life can be lovely and fun and courageous and kind. She knows how the squeeze of this life can make us competitive and judgmental, how we can lose love for others and then for ourselves. She reveals how to: Break free of guilt and shame by dismantling the unattainable Pinterest life. Learn to engage our culture's controversial issues with a grace-first approach. Be liberated to love and release the burden of always being right. Identify the tools you already have to develop real-life, all-in, know-my-junk-but-love-me-anyway friendships. Escape our impossible standards for parenting and marriage by accepting the standard of mostly good. -From the Publisher Some things discussed on the show... ...Jen's writing style earlier in her career. ...getting older. ...women and men experiencing shame differently....the pressure to be a good parent....the metrics of success that we use for our kids.
