God Will Rescue You | Christian Autism Mom, Disability Motherhood, Rare Disease Mom, Medical Mom

Ash Dion

Are you a mom raising a child with a disability, constantly blaming yourself—or even God—for your circumstances in life? Do you find yourself saying, “No one is coming to rescue us,” like it has become the tagline of your life? Are you questioning God and wondering how He fits into your life now? In this podcast, you’ll find relief in God’s presence, learn to live with faith realistically, and release false guilt and shame. My mission is to lead you back to God and make your life not only livable, but meaningful—even joyful—not by ignoring the challenges, but by finding the good through biblical teaching, spiritual growth, and reconnection with Him. If you’re ready to come up for air, let go of the blame, and feel God’s grace, you’re in the right place. Hi, I’m Ash—mom of two, wife, author, and a follower of Christ. When my son was diagnosed with a rare disease at just seven months old, my faith was shaken in ways I never imagined. Years of questioning, unanswered prayers, and an ever-growing list of diagnoses made me feel like God had abandoned me when I needed Him most. It wasn’t until I found Him again at 2 a.m. in my son’s hospital bed that I realized God had been walking beside me every step of the way. By stripping away the lies I had been taught about Him, I discovered His presence in the pages of scripture and in the life I never imagined. That truth changed everything, and I’m ready to share it with you. If you’re ready to reach for God’s hand and let Him rescue you while you’re trying to save everyone else, this podcast is for you.

    49 | Drowning in Disability Motherhood? Why This Christian Disability Mom Podcast Is Shifting Deeper Into God’s Rescue

    If you’re a Christian autism mom or a mom raising a child with disabilities and you’ve felt something shifting here — this episode explains why. This isn’t a new mission. It’s a deeper anchor. After prayer, wrestling, and living this life firsthand, I realized this podcast was never just about surviving disability motherhood. It has always been about God’s rescue in the middle of it. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, responsible for everything, or quietly drowning under the pressure of autism parenting, this conversation will help you breathe again. This is Christian support for the mom who loves fiercely but feels exhausted spiritually. Have I unknowingly made myself responsible for outcomes only God can control? Why does disability motherhood sometimes feel like I’m drowning inside it? What does it mean to trust God instead of carrying false responsibility as a Christian autism mom? Highlights of This Episode: Why the podcast name and emphasis are shifting What hasn’t changed about our mission to support moms raising children with disabilities The hidden promise many Christian autism moms make after diagnosis How false responsibility fuels anxiety, shame, and exhaustion The biblical truth that you are a mother — not the messiah What this deeper focus means for future episodes Episode Summary This episode marks an important rebrand and heart shift for this Christian autism mom podcast. While our mission to provide Christian support for moms raising children with disabilities remains the same, the emphasis is deepening. We are moving from simply surviving disability motherhood to anchoring in God’s rescue within it. You will leave reminded that God never asked you to be the covenant. He asked you to be a mother. And He is near — steady, present, and holding what you cannot.

    48 | When ‘Just Pray’ Isn’t Enough: The Be Mighty in Prayer Framework for Christian Parents Raising Children With Disabilities

    Have you ever felt pressure or guilt when people say “just pray,” but prayer feels heavy instead of comforting? What if struggling to pray doesn’t mean your faith is weak—but that you’re carrying more than most people see? How do you stay connected to God when waiting never seems to end and answers don’t come quickly? Highlights of This Episode Why traditional prayer advice often fails Christian autism moms and moms raising children with disabilities How prayer can start with honesty instead of gratitude or polished words A breakdown of the Be Mighty in Prayer Framework (B.E.M.I.G.H.T.Y.) and how to use it gently Why “mighty” faith doesn’t mean strong feelings—it means staying in relationship How to pray without fear of disappointing God, even when you’re angry, numb, or exhausted Faith-centered Christian support for parents navigating chronic caregiving, grief, and spiritual pressure Episode Summary In this episode of Faith for Autism Moms, Ash introduces the Be Mighty in Prayer Framework, a compassionate, faith-centered tool created specifically for Christian autism moms, moms raising children with disabilities, and parents caring for children with chronic illness or medical complexity. If you want to pray but feel overwhelmed by waiting, grief, and well-meaning advice that unintentionally adds pressure, this conversation is for you. Rather than offering a formula or quick fix, Ash reframes prayer as honest connection. She walks listeners through each part of the B.E.M.I.G.H.T.Y. framework, showing how prayer can meet you where you are—angry, tired, scared, or unsure—without requiring strength, certainty, or gratitude on demand. This episode offers biblical guidance, emotional validation, and permission to stay with God honestly, even when faith feels fragile or heavy.

    47 | How Christian Moms Can Advocate Like Jesus Without Losing Peace

    Why does advocating for my autistic or medically complex child create so much tension with family, friends, or church? Am I being “difficult,” or am I actually being faithful to what God entrusted to me? How do I advocate for my child in a Christlike way without losing my peace, faith, or spiritual grounding? Episode Highlights Why many Christian autism moms and moms raising children with disabilities are often misunderstood—not rebellious The Biblical meaning of Ezekiel 2:6–8 and why it speaks directly to advocacy resistance How family dynamics, fear responses, and misunderstanding disability create emotional “stings” What Christlike advocacy actually looks like (hint: it’s not silence or people-pleasing) How advocacy grows your spiritual maturity, discernment, and resilience Why your faithfulness is measured by obedience—not by whether others agree Practical Christian support for moms navigating conflict while protecting their child and faith Episode Summary In this episode of Faith for Autism Moms, Ash speaks directly to the deep spiritual ache many Christian autism moms feel when advocating for their autistic or medically complex child—especially when the hardest resistance comes from family, friends, or church communities. Rooted in Ezekiel 2:6–8, this episode reframes advocacy not as rebellion, but as holy obedience. You’ll learn why resistance doesn’t mean you’re wrong, how fear and defensiveness drive hurtful responses, and how Jesus models advocacy that is both truthful and peaceful. This conversation is for Christian autism moms, moms raising children with disabilities, and caregiving parents who are tired of questioning themselves, exhausted from explaining, and longing to grow spiritually without becoming hardened or reactive. You’ll walk away with renewed clarity, deeper faith, and the reassurance that your advocacy is shaping you into a spiritually grounded, Christ-anchored woman—exactly as God intended.

How can Christian autism moms and moms raising children with disabilities protect their hearts, find rest, and still fully show up for their children without guilt? Highlights of This Episode: Understanding the unique demands on parents of autistic or medically complex children Exploring the emotional and mental toll of carrying everything alone, validated by research on caregiver burden Biblical encouragement from Hannah, Joseph, and Isaiah 61:3 showing God’s redemption in the midst of unfairness Practical tools for self-care, emotional space, and spiritual resilience when support is limited A heart-to-heart reminder that moments of exhaustion and overwhelm are not wasted, and that God sees every tear Faith-based Christian support for moms navigating the relentless demands of disability parenting Episode Summary: In this deeply honest episode of Faith for Autism Moms, we tackle a question many of us whisper in our most vulnerable moments: “Why my child? Why us?” Raising an autistic or medically complex child is not just hard — it’s relentless. Every emotion, every response, every decision often rests on one parent who carries the weight alone.

Drawing on research about caregiver burden and rich Biblical narratives—including Hannah, Joseph, and Isaiah 61:3—this episode offers hope, perspective, and God-centered encouragement. You’ll hear practical ways to protect your heart, create sacred space for rest, and trust that your journey, however exhausting, is being redeemed. This episode is for Christian autism moms, moms raising children with disabilities, and caregiving parents who feel unseen, overextended, or exhausted.

    45 | Protect Your Peace: God Says Christian Autism Moms Can Step Back

    Why do people feel entitled to judge your emotions while refusing to understand your life as a mom raising children with disabilities? What does God actually say you should do when you feel the scream rising in your chest? Is stepping away selfish—or Biblical? Episode Highlights: The emotional pressure Christian autism moms and moms raising children with disabilities face when constantly explaining themselves Why people misunderstand your reactions, tone, and emotional exhaustion The surprising truth in Isaiah 26:20 and how it applies directly to motherhood Why stepping away is not weakness but spiritual wisdom Jesus’ pattern of withdrawing to protect His heart Practical, real-life phrases to help you step away without guilt A prayer of restoration and peace over every overwhelmed Christian mom listening Faith-centered Christian support for moms protecting their emotional and spiritual well-being Episode Summary: In this episode of Faith for Autism Moms, we dive deep into a struggle nearly every Christian autism mom or mom raising a child with disabilities knows too well: being misunderstood, judged, or questioned for emotions rooted in an invisible mental load. Managing therapies, triggers, medical decisions, routines, safety plans, and sheer exhaustion can make your reactions feel overwhelming—but they are human, not “dramatic.” Yet the world still expects you to explain yourself. We break down Isaiah 26:20 in a fresh way—showing how God invites you to step away, close the door, and let Him handle storms that were never yours to face. You’ll see how Jesus modeled the same pattern of rest and retreat, and why taking space is not selfish… it’s sacred. If you’re a Christian autism mom, a mom raising a child with disabilities, or a mom feeling misunderstood and overstimulated, this episode speaks directly to your heart. Learn how to protect your peace in a God-honoring, Biblical way and reclaim your spiritual strength.

    44 | Feeling Misunderstood as a Christian Autism Mom? How God Sees You When Others Don’t Validate You

    Why do Christian autism moms so often feel unseen, dismissed, or emotionally invalidated—even by the people closest to them? How does constant misunderstanding impact your stress, mental health, and faith? And what changes when you stop seeking validation from others and start seeking it from God? In this episode, Ash speaks directly to Christian autism moms and moms raising children with disabilities who are emotionally exhausted from explaining their reality to people who don’t understand. If you’ve ever shared your struggles only to hear “all kids do that” or felt minimized for how hard this life truly is, this message is for you. Using Psalm 73:23–25, we explore how God sees every unseen sacrifice, every moment of emotional labor, and every quiet act of love you carry as a caregiver. You’ll also learn the science behind emotional invalidation, how it dysregulates the nervous system, and why seeking human validation often leaves you feeling more drained, anxious, and alone. Most importantly, this episode invites you to experience the peace, confidence, and inner stability that comes from resting in God’s affirmation instead of human approval. You’ll walk away with practical, faith-based steps to stop chasing validation, feel spiritually grounded, and remember that as a Christian autism mom or a mom raising a child with disabilities, you are deeply known and never abandoned by God. This episode is especially for: Autism moms who feel misunderstood or dismissed Christian moms raising children with disabilities or medically complex needs Mothers struggling with emotional invalidation, burnout, and overwhelm Women longing to feel seen, supported, and strengthened by God Expect biblical truth, compassion, and encouragement rooted in Scripture. Episode Highlights: Why Christian autism moms often feel dismissed or misunderstood How emotional invalidation affects stress, mental health, and the nervous system Why seeking validation from people who don’t understand can deepen burnout What Psalm 73:23–25 reveals about where true validation comes from How God restores peace, confidence, and internal self-worth Practical steps to stop seeking human approval and rest in God’s affirmation How faith-centered community helps moms raising children with disabilities feel seen and supported Scriptures Mentioned: Psalm 73:23–25 | Psalm 34:18 | Isaiah 41:10 | Matthew 11:28 Resources & Links: 📖 Show Notes Library → https://www.bemightymom.com/tag/podcast/ ⭐ Weekly Be Mighty Mom Devotional → https://bemightymom.com/newsletter ⭐ Be Mighty in Christ Academy → https://bemightymom.com/academy 📩 Contact: admin@bemightymom.com

    43 | Rest is Biblical: How Christian Autism Moms Can Honor God and Find Sleep

    What if your exhaustion isn’t weakness—but a sign God is asking you to slow down? How can you prioritize sleep when your child’s needs feel constant and nonstop? What does the Bible actually say about rest for Christian autism moms and moms raising children with disabilities carrying heavy emotional loads? Episode Highlights Why God designed your body to need sleep and what happens when you don’t get enough The emotional, physical, and spiritual toll of being the primary support for an autistic or medically complex child How Ecclesiastes 5:12 and Psalm 127:2 offer a biblical command and blessing for rest What science reveals about sleep, stress, hormones, and emotional regulation Real-life pressures Christian autism moms face when rest feels impossible Practical steps to begin prioritizing sleep without guilt How Christian support and faith-centered guidance can help you restore balance Episode Summary In this episode of Faith for Autism Moms, we explore a truth many Christian autism moms and moms raising children with disabilities carry quietly: exhaustion is not a sign of weakness—it’s often a signal from God that you need rest. We unpack the frustration of being told to “sleep more” when it feels impossible, and why your exhaustion is not personal failure but proof that you are carrying more than most people see. Drawing on Ecclesiastes 5:12, Psalm 127:2, and Isaiah 40:29–31, we examine how God created your body for rest and calls sleep a gift for His beloved. We also dive into the science behind sleep: how it repairs the body, regulates stress, processes emotions, and strengthens the immune system—and why sleep deprivation hits Christian moms raising children with disabilities especially hard. If you’re the “one person” your child depends on, this episode will help you release guilt, ask for help, and honor your body as God’s creation. You’ll walk away with clarity, practical steps, and a renewed understanding that rest is holy—and that God wants you restored. Scriptures: Ecclesiastes 5:12 | Psalm 127:2 | Isaiah 40:29–31 Scientific Context: Sleep and emotional processing Hormone regulation (cortisol, ghrelin) Physical restoration during sleep Sleep deprivation impacts on caregivers Resources & Links: 📖 Show Notes → https://www.bemightymom.com/tag/podcast/ ⭐ Weekly Be Mighty Mom Devotional → bemightymom.com/newsletter ⭐ Be Mighty in Christ Academy → bemightymom.com/academy 📩 Contact → admin@bemightymom.com
