Caring Well
Dr. Jeanne Porter King
Who do you turn to when you have nothing left to give?
Caregiving is a core value in the African American culture. And African American women of faith often fill that role—for elderly parents, sick children, and other members of their community. Yet no one is fully prepared for the reality of disrupted schedules, unpredictable needs, and many sleepless nights that come with caregiving.
Jeanne Porter King shares 90 devotions written from her own experience as a caregiver for her mother to encourage you to take time to care for your whole self. In three sections that address caring for your spirit, soul, and body, each devotion ends with a reflection question and a self-care activity to help guide you on your caregiving journey.
Draw from the perfect source of strength by seeking Scripture and prayer to sustain you. Your faith is ready fuel for the self-care you need as you look after others!
