Welcome to the Love Your People Well Podcast! Every week here on the show, you’ll get biblical encouragement, gospel hope, and practical tips from my work as a marriage and family therapist and my own home life as a mom of 4 littles.  Every mom can struggle with feeling distracted and discouraged. We can start to feel like we’re drowning in all the important things we want to do. But every mom also wants to ENJOY her family. You want to find purpose in your motherhood. You want a happy marriage, quality family time, and a close family bond. You want more time with Jesus, more self care, and more joy during the hard seasons. It is my prayer that you will find that here.  Take a deep breath, friend, and listen in for a few minutes today. You’ll get tips, you’ll get encouragement, and most of all, you’ll get God’s Word and the peace, joy, and purpose that He offers you in this crazy journey of Christian family life. Head to www.LoveYourPeopleWell.com to grab some free resources, check out my line of devotionals, and get more support. Hugs & blessings, friend. I’ll talk to you soon! ~ Jess

    Find a Christ-centered resource for your family’s holidays.   Episode 275 // Sometimes, we find our greatest motivation in a reality check about life. And that is my goal in today’s episode: not to discourage, but to encourage all of us to work intentionally on our grumbling hearts.    And we’ll find that encouragement with a reality check about how our grumbling - and our gratitude! - impacts the people we love the most.   Last week, we looked at a biblical basis for working on this issue in our lives. But today, we’re going to look around us. At our families. Our homes. Our kids. Our marriages.    Because the reality is, our grumbling is impacting our families. We don’t need to beat ourselves up about it, but we can find motivation to address this issue in our hearts when we realize the impact it can have (that we might not even realize).    Join me in Part 2 of our series on Gratitude Over Grumbling.
