Unhurried Grace - Finding Meaning in the Mundane (Podcast 196) Feb 26, 2021

Show notes

The other day my grown daughter who is a mom of little ones was sharing with me how hard it is to continue to do the same, seemingly mundane things every single day and feel like what she is doing is actually important...that it matters. This is a common struggle for moms.

Today we are going to read through a passage of scripture that is so encouraging as it reveals God's goodness in taking what seems meaningless to the world and use it for His glory!

Homeschooling - How to Deal with Opposition From Others (Podcast 191) Feb 08, 2021

Show notes

Opposition. It's something we face from the time we begin making decisions for our children and intensifies when we decide to homeschool.

Opposition can come at the most inopportune times and sometimes makes us feel as though we have been broadsided. Often it can make us feel inadequate.

This is why it's imperative that we keep some very important principles at the forefront of our minds.

Expecting opposition and positioning yourself to respond well will help grow your confidence and show your kids that homeschooling is a great choice for your family!

Unhurried Grace - Wisdom for Everything (Podcast 190) Feb 04, 2021

Show notes

If you've been a mom for more than 10 minutes, you've felt it-the blaring realization that you really don't know what you're doing. It's one thing to watch other people parent, but when the responsibility of raising and caring for children falls directly on your shoulders, the weight can feel almost unbearable at times.

Welcome to Unhurried Grace, a series of short devotionals created to get right to the point of our struggles and apply God's Word to them.

I hope that you are encouraged today!

Mentoring Moments - How to Have Patience When My Kids are Misbehaving (Podcast 187) Jan 24, 2021

Show notes

Welcome to a new episode of Mentoring Moments! In this podcast series, I share my 30 years of experience as a mom and 25+ experience homeschooling!

When people found out I had eight kids they would often say “You must have a lot of patience” as if having children automatically makes you a patient person. We all know how untrue that is! However, I have learned much over the last 3 decades of parenting, and today I'm sharing from that experience to help equip you to be able to enjoy these years with your kids!
