Customer Reviews
Weekly must listen!
This show encourages, edifies, trains, guides and consistently points to Jesus for just about everything you come across in parenting. They unashamedly talk about hard things, and are brutally honest about their experiences. I love the multi-generational discussions. Each week’s podcast is full of wisdom, encouragement and scripture. I’m always eager for the next week and can’t wait to experience intentional motherhood retreat for the first time this year. As a mom of 5 kids age 9 and under and only being 31, not growing up in a truly Christian home, these 4 have helped shaped and grow me into more of the mother God created me to be.
A Must Listen
The best podcast out there! I appreciate the variety of topics covered throughout the episodes and for the vulnerability the crew has to allow us to learn from them. So. Much. Wisdom (I wish I could sit down with Diane and ask her pages of questions!). I’m constantly sharing the latest podcast episodes with my husband, friends and family. So great!
Always learning and growing
The is podcast has been gold and full of wisdom and encouragement! The perspective of multiple generations has provided a whole new way of looking at parenting.
