The Again Podcast for Christian Moms: Encouragement In the Repetition of Biblical Parenting – Détails, épisodes et analyse

What if one of the most peaceful, steadfast people you knew also happened to be an expert on one of the most overwhelming and confusing aspects of your life? That's exactly what this interview is with our friend Emily. You won't walk away with a list of do's and don'ts from an expert. You're going to get wisdom and encouragement from a real mom that will restore your joy in feeding your family. You'll walk away with your shoulders a little bit less burdened because we want to help redeem an area of life that God has always wanted to bless you with. Instead of adhering to an endless list of evidence, restrictions and shoulds, in part one of this interview, Emily will share how you can still have fun with food. Our whole purpose with the Again Podcast is to bring purpose and joy to the repetition of motherhood, and we think this interview will do just that!

Scriptures mentioned:

Hebrews 11:6

Daniel 3: 16-18

Proverbs 6:6-8

Is it important to help our children obey? Is it just for our convenience or is there a benefit to them? This has become a controversial topic--even in Christian circles and that's why it's important for mothers to look to Scripture for clarity. Listen as Betsy, Emily, Jen, and Steph discuss what it means to have a healthy reverence for the Lord and how this is a pivotal peace in training our children. They even delve into practical topics such as a clean room and what our expectations should be for older children. As always staying true to the foundation of God's Word as the guide is key in Christian parenting. This lesson corresponds with Lesson 8 of Entrusted with a Child's Heart.

Scriptures mentioned:

Proverbs 1:7

Psalm 25:12

Psalm 39:19

Join Betsy, Emily, Jen, and Steph as they discuss how a correct perspective of sin lays the foundation for Christian parenting and the need for salvation. Do children need to be directed, distracted, or disciplined? These important distinctions are incredibly countercultural, so mothers need to be discerning. Listen to make sure Scripture is the foundation, rather than the world. This episode corresponds with Lesson 7 (The Inherent Nature of a Child) of Entrusted with a Child's Heart, a biblical study in family life written by Betsy Corning of Entrusted Ministries.

Scripture Mentioned:

Romans 5:12

Listen in as Betsy, Emily, Jen, and Stephanie untangle our partnership with God. This could easily be misconstrued or misunderstood, but it affects us daily, so we need to know what The Bible says! What is God's role in drawing our kids to Him and what is our responsibility as Christian mothers? As we seek to parent biblically, we need to make sure we don't try to control our children's behavior or take on more ownership than God has called us to. So what should we do? This lesson connects with Entrusted with a Child's Heart: Lesson 7, The Nature of A Child.

Scriptures Mentioned:

1 Cor 3:6-7

Psalm 127:1

Proverbs 22:6

James 3:16

Hebrews 6:19
