About this episode
In this episode, my friend and fellow mom + author, Laura Wifler, and I dig into a plethora of motherhood topics from a biblical perspective—listening to the Lord for direction in our callings, grief in unmet expectations, struggles which are hard but not bad, and even those which are hard and bad. Through it all, a central theme emerges: We are not victims of our circumstances, and Christ did not rise from the dead for us to wallow in our troubles—real and heavy though they are. Or, to put it more succinctly: Jesus > pity parties. Make no mistake, though, Laura knows whereof she speaks as she has walked a challenging road as a mom to a child with significant disabilities due to a rare condition. And yet, her hope is in the Lord, Maker of heaven and earth—and yours can be too, my friend. After all, as Corrie ten Boom put it, “There is no pit so deep that God's love is not deeper still.” Sponsor Info: Voetberg Music Academy Check Out Voetberg Music Academy Here Code: misformama20 Guest Info: Laura Wifler Instagram - laurawifler Site - laurawifler.com Check Out kidlitlab.com If You Want To Write Books With Her!
