    Have We Made Spending Time With God Harder Than It Needs To Be? EP #006

    You want it. You crave it. And yet somehow, it's become one of the biggest sources of guilt in your life as a mum. We're talking about quiet time — and friend, it's time we had an honest conversation about it. In this episode, I'm getting real about something I wrestled with for years: the heavy burden of perfectionism around spending time with God. The shame spiral when you miss a day. The obsession with the perfect journal, the perfect spot, the perfect time of morning. Sound familiar? So in this episode we're diving into: 📖 What quiet time actually is (and what it isn't)🕰️ Where it came from — hint: it's not as ancient as you think⛪ What devotional life looked like in the early church (this one might surprise you)📜 What Scripture actually says about it💡 Why your perception of quiet time might be the very thing getting in the way of actually being with JesusThis isn't an episode telling you to ditch your Bible and your devotional journal. It's an invitation to loosen your grip on the idea of quiet time — and hold tighter to the One it's meant to point you to. 📌 Resources & Scriptures Mentioned: Matthew 6:6Mark 1:35Psalm 1:1-2John 15 (abiding in Christ)Enjoyed this episode?
