    Ep. 47- How to Stay Present in the Little Years/Hard Seasons and Exciting News!
    Aug 30 2024

    The little years of parenting are exhausting and hard. Being in a season of waiting on "what you really want to do" is hard. Being single while longing for marriage is really hard. Working a job that you don't love while waiting for the career you dream of is hard! We all have seasons of life that are easy to wish away because they are hard.


    I remember when my girls were 7, 5, 2, and 3 months old. I was in the thick of the "little years", and I was exhausted. I remember fully loving them and the moments, but also longing for the days when they were older and could do more things on their own....and when I could get a full nights sleep! That stage is all of a sudden gone for me, and I have found myself reflecting on how I could have look at hard seasons a little different.


    Join me on the podcast today as we talk about hard seasons, the little years of parenting, Psalm 90, the life of Moses, and also...I share my bit of exciting news!!

  • Ep. 46- The Struggle with Mom Guilt

    Ep. 46- The Struggle with Mom Guilt
    Feb 26 2024
    Can I make a confession? I hate the phrase "mom guilt"...mostly because I immediately feel guilty! This phrase "mom guilt" has gotten quite a bit of attention amongst my peers in the past few years. I really struggle with mom guilt and regret. I feel guilty about all the things I should be done that I am not with my kids and with my life! I feel guilty about feeling guilty! The thing is though, that if we are living like we are guilty, then we are living as though what Jesus did wasn't enough. It leaves our kids watching a mom who is essentially saying that Jesus wasn't enough for her in this area! I don't know about you but that stings beacuse it's true for me! It may be the heaviness that comes with raising kids, but for some reason, we seem to think that feeling guilty as a mom is ok and we sit in it and joke around about it like it is normal. Living in guilt is living in enemy territory. It's time to take it back and teach our kids how to live free and in the light of grace too! Memory verse for the week: "So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death." Romans 8:1-2 Printable and Coloring Page:

  • Ep. 45- Helping Our Kids to Be Wise (Us too!) Psalm 111:10

    Ep. 45- Helping Our Kids to Be Wise (Us too!) Psalm 111:10
    Feb 19 2024

    Join me on the podcast this week as we talk about what it means to be wise! I tell my girls all the time that you can be really smart but really unwise. Here's what I want you to soak in...Wisdom is a deep understanding that the world isn’t always right, but God’s ways are.  Psalm 111:10 shows us the way to wisdom. "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his instructions have good insight."

    There is so much to unpack in this verse!!! We start to gain wisdom by having a fear of the Lord! Our kids are growing up in a culture that lacks Godly wisdom but believes themselves to be smarter than the last generation. It's a problem. This verse is a good start to helping ourselves to lean into God's way to wisdom.

    Ep. 44- My Biggest Struggle as a Parent Right Now, Philippians 4:5
    Feb 7 2024
    I'm really struggling in one specific area of parenting. Ironically, it's an area that I thought I was really good in for many years. Funny enough, I've noticed that my kids are struggling in this same area, and the Lord has been reminding me of the importance of living in His Spirit as opposed to my fleshly reactions. Although I'm constantly failing in this area, God is giving me hope through a few words he has spoken and tangible tips to live a more grace filled life in this area! Come join us on the podcast this week as we disect and memorize Philippians 4:5, "Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near." Don't forget your Printable and Coloring Sheet!

  • Ep 43- Walk in with Your Head Held High, Ephesians 3:12

    Ep 43- Walk in with Your Head Held High, Ephesians 3:12
    Jan 31 2024

    Most of my life, I think I had the wrong picture of God in my head. When I thought of God, I thought of all the Old Testament fire, distance between his people and himself, and I think we sometimes just stay there in our view of God. Can you relate?


    That's not all of who God is! He is actually approachable! He smiles over you. He sent Jesus so that he could be near to you!! You can Walk in with Your Head Held High!


    Ephesians 3:12 is our verse we are digging deep into this week. We take a deep dive into the Old Testament view of God and how through Jesus, we need to take a new viewpoint! Join me as we dig in and realize the curtain has already been torn down so we can approach him boldly!


    Ephesians 3:12-"In him and through faith in him, we can approach God with freedom and with confidence."

    Ep. 42-Let’s Talk About Fear and How to Work Through It-Psalm 56:3-4
    Jan 24 2024
    Do you or your children struggle with fear? Do you need tools to help you or your child work through those feelings of being afraid? This is what we are leaning into on the podcast this week. Fear is a common feeling, and we see that throughout scripture. However, fear has no root in God. It's the enemy's plan to get us so consumed with fear that we forget WHO GOD ACTUALLY IS. Today we are going to take a deep dive into Psalms 56:3-4 and what it means to actually trust God with our fears and teach our kids how to do that as well. Memory Verse of the Week Psalms 56:3-4 When I am afraid, I will trust in you.  In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid.

    Ep. 40- When Life Leaves You on Empty —Finding rest when it feels impossible!
    Jan 10 2024
    Being a mom means playing the long game, right? Actually, life is a long game whether you’re a mom or not! Sometimes we find ourselves exhausted and burnt out, but there seems to be no time to actually rest! The baby won’t sleep, kids are sick, nap time gets interrupted, we lay down and then someone wakes up…motherhood is life unexpected and interrupted! Motherhood is 100% missional. It is a laying down of our lives for our kids, but we also need rest! It seems to be a catch 22, so what do we do? In Mark 6, Jesus calls his disciples to rest, but their rest keeps getting interrupted just like ours often does. I think we can learn a lot from this chapter and the disciples on how we CAN find rest in the chaos and interruptions. Keep your eyes lifted up! He sees you!
