Biblical Motherhood

You might think that Scripture doesn't have much to say about the food you make for breakfast, how you view your postpartum body, or what school choice you make for your children, but a deeper look reveals that the Bible provides the framework for finding answers to your specific questions about modern motherhood. Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler help you understand and apply the gospel to common issues moms face so you can connect your Sunday morning faith to the Monday morning tantrum. Discover how closely the gospel connects with today's motherhood.

If there's one thing moms love, it's a formula. Give us the three-step process, the instruction manual, the straightforward solution for how to mother with excellence and we'll give it our best shot. But we all know motherhood isn't that simple. Join Emily and Laura as together you explore what it truly means to be a gospel mom, a woman who is renewed by Christ's righteousness, knows her mission and purpose, and lives free from guilt and unhealthy comparison.

Sometimes moms see the never-ending laundry, dirty diapers, and skinned knees as relatively insignificant when compared to activities and callings that seem more important and lasting. But there is eternal value in even the most mundane moments if the great commission informs how we're thinking about all of life, including what it means to be a mom. Tracing motherhood in the story of the Bible and drawing out key implications for moms today, Gloria Furman helps women live out God's story.

Mary, to me, has always been an interesting figure on the Christian landscape. She plays an important role in key accounts in the Gospels, but she is very divisive among Christians. This always puzzled me. Some Christian families of religions, such as Catholicism, revere (not worship) her, while other Christians families go as far as to shun her and reject any role that she might have played in the redemptive process. Whenever a puzzle like this appears, I like to find a solution in going back to the original texts. I love the Biblical languages of Hebrew, Greek, and Latin and I try to ...
