Ep 171 // Raising Kids Who Love Jesus (When You’re Tired, Busy, and Doing Your Best)

Wanting your kids to grow up loving Jesus can feel like one of the most meaningful—and heaviest—desires you carry as a Christian mom. When you’re balancing work, family, and faith, it’s easy to wonder if your busyness is getting in the way of your children’s spiritual growth.

In this episode of Faith Led Working Moms, we’re having an honest, grace-filled conversation about what it really looks like to raise kids who want to follow the Lord—without pressure, perfection, or burnout.

If you’re a working Christian mom who worries about “messing this up,” this episode will help you breathe easier and trust that God is already at work in your home.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why wanting your kids to love Jesus can feel both beautiful and overwhelming

• The freeing truth that your kids are God’s kids first

• Why you are not responsible for controlling your children’s faith outcomes

• How God works through ordinary, everyday moments in busy family life

• Practical, realistic ways to model faith without adding more to your plate

• How conversation matters more than curriculum when it comes to spiritual growth

• Why small, consistent faithfulness matters more than perfect routines

Simple faith practices for busy Christian moms:

• Letting your kids see your faith in real life—not polished or performative

• Using everyday conversations to point your kids back to God

• Releasing guilt and trusting God with what you can’t control

• Showing up with presence, honesty, and grace in hard moments

Encouragement for working moms:

You are not behind. You are not failing. And you are not raising your kids’ faith alone.

God is faithful, and He is already at work in your home—even in the middle of long workdays, rushed mornings, and exhausted evenings.

Resources mentioned in this episode:

• Deuteronomy 6:6–7 – A reminder that faith is lived out in everyday moments

• Conversation starters for kids:

  • “Where did you see God today?”

  • “What was hard today?”

  • “How can we pray together?”
