Episode 262 // No one wants to be thought of as stupid. But none of us really enjoy discipline and correction either. So how do we make sense of Proverbs 12:1 - “Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid.”

Join me today for a Christian mom-to-mom devotional for encouragement and help from this unusual proverb in Scripture!

Episode 261 // The book of Proverbs gives us wisdom, hope and encouragement. And today, we’ll take a look at Proverbs 21:9 and find wisdom for ourselves as wives.

It’s not an easy proverb to read, but it should hit close to home for all of us: “Better to live on a corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.” Proverbs 21:9

Eek. No one wants to be married to a quarrelsome wife… and none of us want to BE one either! Join me today for a short devotional thought on this provoking proverb, and let’s find encouragement together.

Episode 260 // God is always with you. He hears every prayer, and He responds.

Of course, that doesn’t always look like we hope it will. And He does not always act in ways that we desire. But our prayer journeys build a connection with God that carries us through hard and difficult seasons.

Join me today for a devotional thought from Psalm 86, and let’s deepen our personal walks with the Lord as we consider his Word together.

This is part of our Summertime in the Psalms series, and I’m so glad you’re here!

Episode 259 // Psalm 90:12 is a powerful verse that should point us not only toward the wisdom and goodness of God, but also toward a reality check for our own busy lives.

Our days are numbered. This may feel especially true when we consider the realities of family life. How long will your children be innocent in childhood? How long until they leave the home? How much time do you really have to influence and teach them? To build deeper relationship with them?

Today, I’ll share a short devotional to offer us all some biblical encouragement and real-life clarity for family life.

This is part of our Summertime in the Psalms series, and I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s dive in.

Episode 258 // Prayer is the centerpiece of Christian life. But it’s easy to spend too much time on the day-to-day little things and miss out on praying for the deeper, richer priorities of life.

Today’s psalm will help us get back on track. We’ll take a look at Psalm 139 and consider together how our prayer lives for our family can focus on the biblical truths of what our families need.

This is part of our Summertime in the Psalms series, and I’m so glad you’re here.

Let’s jump in.

Episode 257 // “But I cry to you for help, LORD; in the morning my prayer comes before you. Why, LORD, do you reject me and hide your face from me?” Psalm 88:13-14.

Not an easy prayer. But this psalm is so REAL for us. We’ve all had these seasons, where we are desperate for the Lord’s help and yet we feel like He is absent and ignoring us.

He’s not ignoring you, friend. He’s not absent.

Join me today for a short devotional looking at these verses for a moment of biblical encouragement in our hardest seasons. This is part of our Summertime in the Psalms series, and I’m so glad you’re here.

Episode 256 // We’re diving into the Psalms for the month of July, and starting right at the beginning today! Psalm 1 is such a helpful reality check for each of us - for our own lives, but also for our responsibility as moms.

Summer can bring a lot of fun and freedom… so perhaps it’s even more important to be intentional and biblically-minded about how we are allowing ourselves and our children to be influenced.

Join me for a short devotional in Psalm 1 today, for biblical encouragement and some real-life wisdom from God’s Word.
