    Hosanna's Birth Story: Freebirth With Jesus

    In this episode I share about conception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with my third living baby, Hosanna. I was led by God to have a birth without a provider present, fully trusting in Jesus to be with me and guide me if I should seek out any additional support, which we did in some ways, including having a precious midwife come after the birth to assess baby and I, and help my husband clean up. This is the story from start to finish!! It's already 9 months + since her birth and I am still in awe of how beautiful it was. I pray it blesses and encourages you to follow Jesus in every area - even if it seems crazy to the world. He is faithful! Keywords birth story, miscarriage, pregnancy tests, midwifery, home birth, emotional journey, motherhood, prenatal care, progesterone, personal experience, Jesus, faith, trust, surrender

    "Actually I Can See the Good" - Mindset Encouragement & Identity Truths

    In this episode, I share my insights on the importance of mindset in motherhood and daily life. I talk about how simple objects, like coffee mugs, can serve as reminders of faith and strength. Through personal stories, I emphasize the significance of obedience, seeing the good in challenging situations, and understanding our identity in Christ. I encourage you to embrace your daily routines as opportunities for spiritual growth and to recognize your worth and purpose in God's eyes. Takeaways: Mornings can be chaotic, but mindset matters.Choosing the right mug symbolizes our mindset.Obedience often starts when we don't feel like it.Seeing the good requires intentionality and prayer.Our thoughts shape our actions and impact our families.Small daily habits can lead to spiritual growth.We are worthy of love and purpose in Christ.Obedience is not always loud; it can be quiet and subtle.God invites us to see things from His perspective.Every tiny choice shapes our ability to obey God.

    Think you can't afford a homebirth? Think again. In this episode, I discuss the importance of trusting God for financial provision during childbirth, especially for those considering home births.

    Back to Simple Obedience: A Heart Shift, Not a Step Back

    I am so excited to sharing this with you all today. In this episode of the Simple Obedience podcast, I share my journey of personal growth and transformation as a mother and podcaster. I reflect on my experiences with birth, motherhood, and what it has looked like to truly obey God. I talk about the shift I’ve felt—moving from focusing solely on birth to embracing a broader conversation around personal growth, faith, and encouragement for women. I open up about the power of simple habits, what it means to surrender to God’s will, and how I’ve found deeper compassion through challenging moments. This episode marks a new direction for the podcast—one that I pray will inspire and uplift you as you walk out your own journey of faith and motherhood.

    HARD LAUNCH: Rebrand & Vision For the Podcast

    "Behold, I am doing a NEW THING;    now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?I will make a way in the wilderness    and rivers in the desert." Isaiah 43:11 In this episode, I'm unveiling the exciting rebrand of the podcast from Simple Obedience to Simply Obedient Birth. I share the heart behind this shift as I focus on empowering women with knowledge and confidence in home birth, free birth, and birthing fully submitted to the Lord. Moving forward, I'll be sharing real birth stories, offering insights, and helping you embrace the journey of childbirth with faith, trust, and obedience to God’s plan. Tune in to hear the vision God has given me for inspiration, encouragement, and practical wisdom on this transformative path that is motherhood.

    My Story with Alcohol - From Bondage to Sobriety

    Taking a break from the regularly scheduled birth content to share with you my story of the Lord leading me to forever give up alcohol. I have always shared this openly, but this is a bit more personal, vulnerable, and honest. I pray it blesses you and gives you some (maybe new) perspective for your own journey with alcohol. Prayerfully consider your own relationship with alcohol, share with a friend or family member, or just listen in for a peak into my journey of becoming sober. If this was something that really impacted you, please follow and leave a review on this show! Also, PLEASE feel free to DM me on either Facebook or Instagram, @MandyKuennen, and share what impacted you most. I would love to hear how God is using this podcast in your life.

    Surrendering Fear in Pregnancy & Motherhood

    If you are pregnant or a mom, this episode is for you. I recorded this as I felt the Spirit stirring in me on a drive home one day to address fear in pregnancy, and in motherhood overall. This is something that means so much to me that moms understand, that God chose YOU to be their baby's mother and that He is ultimately in control of it all. We do not need to operate out of fear of the test result, ultrasound result, birth outcomes, the future, the present, the past, any of it. I share a few ideas of how to surrender your fear, and end by praying over you and encouraging you to know that we are not called to live in fear. I pray this blesses you! The audio quality on this one is rough because I was in the car, but it's already blessed a handful of moms I've sent it to privately and I felt the Lord nudging me to share in publicly even though the audio is less than ideal. I promise I won't post another episode that sounds like this. LOL.

    Homebirth After Hospital Birth (Part 3/3 of My Birth Stories)

    This is the story of my home birth with my 2nd biological baby after having my 1st bio baby in the hospital and then a miscarriage in between. The final birth in my 3 part birth story session! (Your provider truly makes all the difference in the way your birth is going to go, so please consider this when choosing your birth plan and place you want to birth. Hospital birth will never be like a home birth. It is not designed to be that.) I am so passionate about sharing how God made our bodies as women to birth when left alone and supported by someone who knows and trusts birth. In this episode, I share from conception to birth and into postpartum with my most recent baby, Gloria Beth. Stay tuned to the end for an exciting announcement. Enjoy and please let me know your thoughts via comment, email, or DM on instagram - @MandyKuennen

    Stop Hiding and Grab the Mic

    Welcome to the very first episode of the Simple Obedience podcast! Come hear what has brought me to this point, what's been holding me back, and some of what I plan to bring you through this podcast. ...My prayer is that you will feel like we are sitting one-on-one at a coffee shop, my chair pulled close and leaning in to share sweet truth of the gospel to you as God brings me the words to speak. My prayer is to spur you on, encourage you, lift your head, educate and empower you, as well as create a space for other women to share their testimonies, all about how living within God’s instruction brings ultimate protection, FREEDOM, and fullness of life.  God’s ways truly are best. I know because I’ve rebelled and seen the destruction that comes from it, and I’ve seen God’s goodness that comes from obeying His instruction. Join me for testimony and encouragement relating to marriage, motherhood, birth & postpartum, finances, health, foster care, business, friendship, and sobriety all in light of the gospel. There is hope to be found in Jesus! Links from the show: Meaning Over Money Podcast with Travis Shelton and Cole Netten Connect with me! I would LOVE to hear from you and how this podcast has blessed you. Instagram: @MandyKuennen Email: SimpleObediencePodcast@gmail.com
