Risen Motherhood

Most of us know that good storytelling captures our attention and impresses lessons on our hearts. The same is true for our children! The adventures, battles, victories, and resolutions whisper biblical truths that impact our children, often without them fully understanding how or why. In this episode, Emily and Laura share how stories can help us pass along the gospel and give examples of godly character to our children. A good story represents the Great Story, and wonderful tales laced with hope invite our children to know the greatest storyteller of all–God himself.     RM APPLY QUESTIONS VIEW TRANSCRIPT   Related Content: The Story of the Bible: How the Good News About Jesus Is Essential - Tim Keller, TGC Are Fairy Tales Just for Children? - Joe Rigney, Desiring God Finding the Gems Among the Rubbish: A Guide To Selecting Quality Children’s Literature, Part I - Laura Wifler: RM Co-Founder & Co-Host, Twin Cities Mom Blog Seeds of Faith, Awe and Wonder - Autumn Kern: RM Blog Editor, Rosemary & Thyme  Three Objections to Fairy Tales and C.

One of the most exciting things we can teach our children is that Jesus came to earth as a tiny baby and that he’s coming back as the King. This past-and-future perspective is at the heart of the Advent season as we celebrate what has happened and wait expectantly for what is to come. On this episode, Emily and Laura explain the meaning of advent, sharing ways to celebrate, and encourage moms to find freedom in the Christmas season. Instead of running into the holidays with added pressure of one more thing, we can look to Christ and celebrate the gospel story in our homes from an overflow of joy.   RM APPLY QUESTIONS VIEW TRANSCRIPT   Related Content: Why We Celebrate Advent - Timothy Paul Jones, TGC Celebrating Advent: Looking Back and Looking Forward - Melissa Kruger, TGC Christmas is a Mystery - Michael Douglas, TGC Jesse Tree Devotions - RCA Advent Begins Today - David Mathis, Desiring God Advent is for Adoring Jesus - Desiring God  Good News of Great Joy - John Piper, Desiring God  Three Wise Men Walk Into A Barn - Knowing Faith podcast Resources: RM|Resources for Advent (Check out all our favorite items that we use for Advent - many that we mention on the show!)

From the rude friend in the neighborhood to the scary show at Grandma’s house, our children will face negative influences. Even more so, their own hearts will lead them to worship the wrong things. So what do we do as moms to train our children in godliness? In this episode, Laura and Emily talk about building a gospel culture within our homes by offering grace, not guilt, to our children. By creating an environment of conversation, repentance, and joy, we can extend the welcoming attitude of Christ towards our children as they learn to live like Jesus. Our children are not the things they see or do, and we have the privilege of teaching them to look towards Jesus, again and again.     RM APPLY QUESTIONS   VIEW TRANSCRIPT   Articles, Resources and Related Content: Mothering a Rebellious Heart - Courtney Reissig  Parenting: 14 Gospel Principles That Can Radically Change Your Family - Paul David Tripp Parenting with a Big Gospel Picture - Mitch Chase, The Gospel Coalition  A Practical Guide to Culture: Helping the Next Generation Navigate Todays World - John Stonestreet, ERLC 6 Truths about Parenting That Reorient Everything - Paul David Tripp, Crossway How to Raise an Alien Child - Jen Wilkin, The Gospel Coalition Offensive vs. Defensive Discipleship - Eric Geiger Jesus is God - Matt Chandler, The Village Church Resources X-ray Questions: Drawing Out the Whys and Wherefores of Human Behavior - David Powlison Loving Someone in Their Mess - Colleen Chao, Revive Our Hearts How Do We Keep Ourselves From Idol Worship - David Powlison, CCEF 12 Ways to Love Your Wayward Child - Desiring God Don't Raise Good Kids - Jon Bloom, Desiring God What if I Ruin My Kids - John Piper, Desiring God Parenting Is Like Jazz - William P.

RM|APPLY: Questions for personal reflection or conversation with others, to dig deep and allow the transforming work of the gospel to impact every part of your motherhood While we cannot keep our children from all of the negative influences of this world, we can create a culture within our homes that continually points them to Christ (Deut. 11:18-20). Jesus modeled perfect obedience to God during his life, teaching us how to be in this world but not of it. Because of his perfect life and death on the cross, we experience deep grace every day. As you work through these questions, consider how you can draw your children to Christ through the normal rhythms in your home. Our family culture influences our children at home. What does your family value most? As a mom, you have the opportunity to live an authentic life of discipleship to Jesus in front of your children. How are you teaching your children to walk in his ways? The biggest problem our children have is inside of them. So we need to address negative influences with our children at the heart level. Consider an issue in your home right now. What does it look like to bring it back to the heart issue? We need to be praying constantly that our children will grow to love the one true God as we work to protect them. What practical things can you do to surround your children with godly influences in different settings? Ultimately, we do not change the hearts of our children, only God can do that. When we understand that God is in control of all things, we no longer have to strive to control our children. Are there are any areas of motherhood that you still try to control? How does your identity in Christ free you to trust God?  

In the years of little ones, it seems almost impossible to carve out a quiet moment to read our Bibles and pray intentionally. Most moms want to be in the word amidst the busyness, but we just need a little help. This is why founders, Raechel and Amanda, started She Reads Truth – to see women get in the word of God everyday. In this episode, Raechel and Amanda, wives, mothers, and authors, discuss how women need to be rooted in God’s word, taking the first step by just getting started. By changing our expectations of “quiet times” and studying with other women, we can find the refreshing hope of the gospel in the Bible that has relevant application in each season of life.

From elaborate, Pinterest-worthy birthday bashes to simple celebrations with donuts and family, birthday parties can look wildly different in every family. But for moms today, planning a birthday party can feel a little like a competition against online strangers, our friends, and even ourselves. One thing all parties do is reveal a mom’s heart. In this episode, Emily and Laura discuss birthday parties and ask, “What’s our heart motivation?” Since our worth is secure with Christ, moms can stop chasing perfection, even in something like party planning. The gospel invites us to see each birthday as pause for a yearly celebration of God’s work in our children’s lives.     VIEW TRANSCRIPT   We want to recognize that birthdays can be hard for moms who have lost a child too soon, either inside or outside of the womb. Moms who have experienced miscarriage and infant loss can also glorify God as they mourn and celebrate what God did in and through that child’s life, even if it was short. Even though we don’t address this directly in the show, we’re thinking about you, and hope you will be blessed and encouraged by some of these resources: Ep. 23: Hope After Miscarriage: Two Moms Share Their Stories and Loss Ep. 39: Infertility, Miscarriage and Motherhood with Courtney Reissig RM’s Collection: Hope for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Articles, Resources and Related Content: FAQ: Should I Curtain Grandparent Gift-Giving - Jen Wilkin Raising Grateful Kids in an Entitled World - Kristin Welch Mom Enough - Desiring God Recovering From Perfect Mom Syndrome - Melissa Kruger, The Gospel Coalition  They Shall Know Us by Our Parties - Catherine Parks, Christianity Today  The Amazing Calling of Being "Mom''- Trillia Newbell, Desiring God  More From Risen Motherhood: Ep. 42: Making Christmas Traditions Matter Ep. 64: Making a Home: Decorating for the Glory of God Ep. 70: Is Motherhood the Most Important Thing  For More: To subscribe: on iOS, go to our iTunes page and subscribe.

The idea of eating around the table with little ones may bring to mind little tea cups in front of stuffed animal friends or fidgeting children and food-covered floors. No matter what mealtimes look like in our homes, each meal is a chance to share how God’s love impacts our children’s lives. In this episode, Sally Clarkson, wife, mother of four, and prolific author, offers her wealth of experience and insight on sharing Christ with your children around the family table. By making our times at the table something special and an opportunity for training, moms can tackle the hard work of sharing gospel truths in a natural way within the daily rhythm of mealtimes.   VIEW TRANSCRIPT   Articles, Resources and Related Content: The Lifegiving Table - Sally Clarkson The Mission of Motherhood  - Sally Clarkson The Ministry of Motherhood - Sally Clarkson The Lifegiving Home - Sally Clarkson At Home with Sally Clarkson and Friends - Sally Clarkson's Podcast  Meal Time Prayers - John Piper (Desiring God) Songs from The New City Catechism - The Gospel Coalition The New City Catechism Your Child is Your Neighbor - Jen Wilkin (The Gospel Coalition)  Why we Teach our Children to be Christian - Jason Helveston (Desiring God)  Sharing the Gospel with Your Children - Jill Nelson (Children Desiring God) Help Me Teach the Bible: Marty Machowski on Teaching Theology to Kids - Nancy Guthrie (The Gospel Coalition)   For More: To subscribe: on iOS, go to our iTunes page and subscribe.

Interactions with the grandparents in your life may leave you feeling thankful and energized, but they may also leave you feeling frustrated or misunderstood. One thing that all moms need in both easy and hard relationships is grace. In the second episode of our “Grandparents & The Gospel” series, Laura and Emily focus on how we can be the instruments of the gospel in our interactions with our children’s grandparents. When we understand how Jesus extends the most grace to us, we are free to offer unconditional love to some of our very closest neighbors, Grandpa and Grandma.   VIEW TRANSCRIPT   Articles, Resources and Related Content: Loving Difficult People – Stacy Reaoch (Desiring God) Organic Food, Essential Oils, and the Gospel of Grace – Stacy Reaoch (Desiring God) Loving Someone in Their Mess – Colleen Chao (Revive Our Hearts) 10 Common Mistakes in Difficult Relationships – Lina Abujamra (Revive Our Hearts) Simple Advice about Mommy Advice – Jasmine Holmes (Desiring God) FAQ: Should I Curtain Grandparent Gift-Giving – Jen Wilkin Faith: The Link Between God’s Love for Us and Ours for Others – John Piper (Desiring God) Love Your Neighbor as Yourself, Part 1 – John Piper (Desiring God) Love Your Neighbor as Yourself, Part 2 – John Piper (Desiring God) Audacious Grace – Diana Stone (She Reads Truth) Read Scripture: Ephesians – The Bible Project (YouTube)    For More: To subscribe: on iOS, go to our iTunes page and subscribe.

Grandparents can be some of the most loving and helpful relationships in the lives of our children, but they can also be some of the most complicated. Navigating different expectations, values, and family cultures can cause miscommunication and even estrangement. In this episode, Emily and Laura ask the question, “Why do Grandma and Grandpa get under our skin sometimes?” which is really a way of examining our own hearts in light of the gospel. What we worship determines how we respond to happy and hard relationships, and only when we reorient our eyes to Christ’s sacrifice can we approach these issues with grace.   VIEW TRANSCRIPT    Articles, Resources and Related Content:  X-Ray Questions: Drawing Out the Whys and Wherefores of Human Behavior – David Powlison Loving Difficult People – Stacy Reaoch (Desiring God) Loving Someone in Their Mess – Colleen Chao (Revive Our Hearts) 10 Common Mistakes in Difficult Relationships – Lina Abujamra (Revive Our Hearts) Simple Advice about Mommy Advice – Jasmine Holmes (Desiring God) FAQ: Should I Curtail Grandparent Gift-Giving – Jen Wilkin God’s Wisdom, Your Relationships – Paul Tripp (Desiring God) How do we Keep Ourselves from Idol Worship? - David Powlison (CCEF) When Sin is Grievous and Grace is Stunning – Tim Keller (The Gospel Coalition)  For More: To subscribe: on iOS, go to our iTunes page and subscribe.

In the little years, it’s easy to grow weary from sowing seeds without seeing much fruit. When the discouragement bears down, we wonder, “Does this even matter? Would another investment be more worthwhile?” In this episode, Ruth Chou Simons, author, artist and founder of Gracelaced, pours out gospel-rich wisdom from her years of parenting six boys. She discusses how she manages her dreams and motherhood, how she keeps her priorities straight with a blooming business, and offers practical wisdom for a busy mom to grow in her relationship with God. Through years of humble faithfulness, a mom can hope in Christ, even when she can’t see the outcome of her story.  VIEW TRANSCRIPT Articles, Resources and Related Content: Gracelaced Book – Ruth’s new book including beautiful artwork & devotionals* Gracelaced Journal – Includes 8 pieces of art by Ruth & inviting journal to use* Gracelaced.com - Ruth Chou Simons’ website Gracelaced on Instagram – Follow Ruth on Instagram Each Person Has Their Own Story Quote - The Horse and His Boy by C.S.
