031 - Following God in Ministry AND Motherhood (and how that influences our daughters in the best way) with Michelle Myers Dec 10, 2019

Show notes

There's no denying that becoming a mother changes things for a woman...including our sense of direction in life. Even when we are crystal clear on what kind of mother we want to be, becoming a mom doesn't mean we should lose our original mission as a child of God.

Becoming a mom really DOES change a woman. It changes her body, her emotions, her priorities, and even sometimes her entire direction in life...but it shouldn't change her mission.

Join us today as we chat with Michelle Myers, Founder of She Works HIS Way, about following God in motherhood AND in ministry! You might just walk away with a whole new understanding of your calling!

030 - Raising Boys Who Respect Girls (Dave Willis) Dec 03, 2019

Show notes

There's a push in our culture today to elevate women over men. People say, "The future is female" speaking to the idea that as we progress women will have more and more influence. We're not saying it's wrong for women to have influence, just that God made both sexes to work together for His glory. The future doesn't exclude males, and the call for men to treat women with a respect that honors God is independent from cultural norms.

It can be a confusing time for boys, as they try to juggle being respectful of the girls around them, while at the same time refusing to demonize true masculinity. Our guest today says his mission with this conversation is to help restore a broken view of manhood, and call boys to a high standard of manhood without shaming them for being male. We love the sound of that!

Join us as we chat with Dave Willis, author of Raising Boys Who Respect Girls: Upending Locker Room Mentality, Blind Spots, and Unintended Sexism, on today's episode! You won't want to miss this one!

As your kids grow up, the realization that "home" feels different now can be daunting and filled with all kinds of different emotions. It really isn't the same as before they left, but it can still be so good!

How do we create a place our kids want to come home to?

025 - How Our Purpose in Marriage Extends to Our Mission as Parents (with Jennifer and Aaron Smith) Oct 29, 2019

Show notes

Most people, at least in the United States, marry for love and because they want to be happy and share their lives with someone. But according to Aaron and Jennifer Smith, authors of Marriage After God: Chasing Boldly After God's Purpose for Your Life Together, the purpose of Christian marriage is much more than just that.

Intentionally choosing to prioritize our marriage once we're parents is difficult at best. Small humans require lots of time and energy, and often leave their parents with little left over for each other. But having a "missional" marriage is more than just making time for a date night.

What if a look at the scriptures could change the entire way you see yours?

Rather than "you and me against the world," God calls each couple to the rich and meaningful mission of "you and me for the world." Tune in to today's episode to learn more!

024 - Learning to Put Jesus First in Your Own Life (Katie Orr) Oct 22, 2019

Show notes

As Christian moms, we all want to prioritize making sure that our kids know and love Jesus...at least as much as it depends on us...but we forget that one of the best ways, if not THE best way to do this is to make sure our own relationship with Christ is growing first. This is one of the hardest things to do during a time when we most need it. There are so many things vying for our attention as moms. Even before we get out of bed it can feel like our to-do lists are overwhelming. Who has time to set aside for developing relationship with God? Our guest today would say that we don't have time NOT to invest in our relationships with God...that our very happiness depends on it. Please welcome Katie Orr to the Million Praying Moms podcast!

022 - The Effect of "Reality Living" and How to Help Our Kids Find Their Worth in Christ Instead of Clicks Oct 08, 2019

Show notes

What kind of effect does it have on a young mind when they're living for the next like?

How does having constant access to their peers likes and dislikes, words of encouragement or discouragement, and touched up pictures affect the way our children see and understand themselves?

How does a caring parent make decisions about when and whether to allow their children to enter the "reality living" rat race when we often struggle with it ourselves as adults?

021 - Addressing the Epidemic of Anxious Girls Oct 01, 2019

Show notes

Anxiety among girls is at epidemic rates.

Our guest today says childhood anxiety rates are soaring, especially among girls, and she should know because she counsels them and their families every day in her practice outside of Nashville, TN. Because of this issue, we thought it was important to dedicate an entire episode to helping parents know what contributes to anxiety and worry and how they can empower their daughters to overcome their fears.
