One-parent households frame the new landscape of American family life. But raising kids alone is hard work, and single parenting is a struggle for most. David and Lisa Frisbie provide a practical and proactive plan single moms or single dads can use to...

  • nourish their own souls, maintaining a vibrant faith in God and a vital connection to family and friends
  • nurture their children, empowering kids to successfully process the trauma of divorce
  • manage their households as they assume roles and tasks that may lie well outside their comfort zone
  • build a future they can enjoy, making choices about education, careers, finances, and relationships

The Frisbies' constant travel and ongoing counseling ministry provide a rich reservoir of effective strategies and ideas. Moms and dads who parent alone will find confidence and hope from this manageable and optimistic approach.
