The 5 Minute Mom Podcast

I think we can all agree that we want our children to be full of joy! Right? But, I think I'm too often guilty of confusing joy and happiness- temporary wonderful feelings or circumstances- or maybe even a jolly disposition.  What if we prayed for our children to have MORE than a feeling that can come and go. But what if we started praying for our children to have a deep, abiding, unrelenting JOY...

That he is a faithful friend and a compassionate, loving Father.   But- even with this knowledge- as an adult- it can be so difficult to pursue a consistent, disciplined, passionate prayer life. However, I desire to ra...

I want my children to have a supernatural love for Jesus. I want them to follow him wholeheartedly. I want them to live passionately for him- with so much trust and abandon.

And in order to truly know God- they must know HIS WORD. Today- let's pray th...

I often say to my husband and my friends- "There is no Christian bubble wrap for this world we are living in."

A couple of years ago, my husband and I went on a retreat to talk about our vision for parenting.  It was so powerful and I walked away with a desire for my kids to be WHOLE in this generation- physically, spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and relationally. And, God affirmed this in a BEAUTIFUL way through scripture! I share that story in this episode. Spend 5 minutes praying with me as we belie...
