    Gospel Mom 07: On Ending the Mommy Wars + Other Things (GM - C10)

    We’ve spent a lot of time in this series looking at how gospel motherhood brings freedom—so what do we do when our freedom feels in conflict with another mom’s preferences? (Oof. Tricky, right?) In this episode, Emily and Laura discuss how we can honor moms who think differently than we do by asking questions while holding to our own convictions, being charitable, treating others the way we want to be treated, and prayerfully trusting the work of God in another mom’s life. Loving one another well often requires patience and sacrifice, but by God’s grace, we can learn to love other moms while standing unified around the most essential gospel truths.

    Gospel Mom 06: On Being Honest With Yourself + Other Things (GM - C9)

    Many of us know it from memory: “the heart is deceitful above all else” (Jer. 17:9). So in a world that shouts we should “follow our heart,” what does it look like to be in the world—acknowledging our human interests and passions—while not being of the world, pursuing these things at all costs? In this episode, Emily and Laura share a few examples and questions we can consider when evaluating our heart motivation behind decisions big and small. The application will look different for all of us, and that’s the beauty of it! God has wired each of us differently, and he knows our hearts inside and out. In the words of the psalmist, “no good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly” (Ps. 84:11). Will you trust him with it, friend? This episode is brought to you by our generous donors.

    Gospel Mom 05: On How Your Life Experiences Shape Your Motherhood + Other Things (GM - C8)

    You know that feeling—when your shoulders tighten or your stomach turns—where something you’re doing just doesn’t feel quite right. That’s often your personal conscience, and we know firsthand how challenging it can be to discern your conscience vs. conviction from the Holy Spirit. The encouraging news? God has given us both for our good! In this episode, Emily and Laura share some questions we can consider as we evaluate the decisions and beliefs we hold most tightly to in motherhood, as well as where we can extend grace to the moms who do it differently. With God’s Word as our anchor, all of us moms have freedom to make different choices and still pursue a gospel motherhood. This episode is brought to you by our generous donors.

    Gospel Mom 04: On Competitive Motherhood + Other Things (GM - C7)

    Take a quick look around—see anyone that has your exact life? Same, friend. And yet, how often do we feel the pressure to do things exactly the way another mom does them? As believers, we know God made us uniquely in his image… so how does this play out in our lives as moms? In this episode, Emily and Laura share how our differing seasons and life circumstances not only free us to pursue God’s design for our motherhood, but also serve as the setting for his work in our lives. May this reminder free you to plant your feet firmly in the life God has given you, trusting his path forward for you and your family. This episode is brought to you by our generous donors.

    Gospel Mom 03: On Why God Feels Distant + Other Things (GM - C5-6)

    For most of us, the idea of spiritual disciplines isn’t new: we know as moms pursuing Christ, it’s important to be in God’s Word, pray, and enjoy godly community. But… we also know it’s easier said than done. How do we find time between packing lunches and keeping everyone’s schedules straight to pursue spiritual habits and disciplines? In this episode, Emily and Laura give us a fresh take on what it means to evaluate our individual needs as moms, and how this frees us to look at spiritual growth differently than many of us have before. By God’s grace, these practices will become less of a checkbox and more of a can’t-miss as we move forward in faith. This episode is brought to you by our generous donors.

    Gospel Mom 02: On Understanding Why Motherhood is Hard + Other Things (GM - C1-4)

    You’ve likely heard “the gospel” before, maybe more times that you can count—but no matter how often we walk through the pattern of Creation-Fall-Redemption-Consummation, we’re still in awe of the way this lens helps us see our motherhood (and all of life, really!) so much more clearly. In this episode, Emily and Laura walk through the gospel framework, providing questions and Scripture along the way for you to apply to your own motherhood. Let this news bring hope to your weary heart today, mom: the Bible really does provide the answers to your modern motherhood questions. This episode is brought to you by our generous donors.

    Gospel Mom 01: On Being A “Good Mom” + Other Things (GM - C1)

    Think fast: when you first became a mom, what expectations did you have? Chances are that many of us planned to be a certain type of mom, intentional or not: the crunchy mom, the do-it-all mom, the ‘little bit of everything’ mom, and so on. But it doesn’t take long in motherhood to realize that our ideal doesn’t always match our life circumstances: that’s why in this episode, Emily and Laura dive into the freedom of gospel motherhood. Inspired by their new book, Gospel Mom, they share three truths we find for motherhood in Scripture and the everlasting hope they bring. Let’s break free of the labels and find our true identity in Christ. This episode is brought to you by our generous donors. If you'd like to join them or learn more, click here.
