Split into three sections, the first chapter looks at the meaning motherhood;chapters 2‿4 are about idolatry; chapters 5‿9 focus on a few different idols that mothers might worship (not an exhaustive list, but a common few); and the final chapters are about facing idols, dethroning them, and turning our heart back to the One true God.
