The Delighted Motherhood Podcast is devoted to applying biblical principles to everyday motherhood as we delight ourselves in the Lord and in the calling that He has given to us.


Kira is a homeschool mom to four young boys, wife to James, a Bible teacher at her church, writer, podcaster and seminary student. But more than anything else, she’s a Christian who is loved by her Savior. And that changes everything.

    Is Motherhood Martyrdom?
    Jun 23 2025

    Contemporary motherhood narratives are all over the place. On the one hand, it is assumed that moms can’t shower, do a serious Bible study, or go on a run and that it’s normal to want to “escape” from our kids.

    On the other hand, the expectation to do it all can feel overwhelming.The internal pendulum of motherhood swings from striving to complaining and back again –sometimes in the course of an hour. How do we escape this cycle and reorient our parenting around Christ our Redeemer?

  • Should the Party Be saved?

    Should the Party Be saved?
    Jun 17 2025

    According to the data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics only 4.1 percent of Americans attended or hosted social gatherings on a given weekend or holiday in 2023.

    On the one hand, the decline of parties may not seem like such a big deal. The majority of Americans feel too busy (60 percent of the general population and 74 percent of parents) –so why not just eliminate the party stress?

    But when we continually choose our cozy jammies over “putting ourselves out there” we suffer. God created us to thrive in communities. It isn’t good for us to be alone –as research demonstrates.

    Social gatherings –which include more than one on one interactions – are key elements of human thriving and connection. Genesis to Revelation, God describes human flourishing as happening within a context of regular communal gatherings, celebrations, and parties.

    In this podcast we will explore why parties should be saved.

We are surrounded by various messages about motherhood. Many of the messages are that kids are an inconvenience and a burden, mothering and being a SAHM is a drag and unfulfilling, mothering is exhausting and emotionally draining, etc. It, at times, can be easy to give way and focus on the ways that mothering can be challenging and sanctifying. Kira’s podcast is such an encouragement. Pointing us to scripture and what God says about our children and motherhood. We can choose to adopt the negative narratives or we can practice looking at our purpose of being a mother thru God’s lens which is that children are a blessing and being a mother is a gift. Our children are miracles and gifts that we get to unwrap each day AND we will need the Lord to parent us daily so that we may parent well. I love that this podcast is a place I know I can come to be hear uplifting messages and be encouraged.

Uplifting! Encouraging!
