The little years might not seem like the season for mentoring. But we don’t have to have it all together to have something to offer—the beauty of mentoring is growing together.

With a little thought and planning, the summer can be a great opportunity to guide our children toward a deeper walk with Christ.

Children are a good gift we can enjoy, but motherhood isn’t the source of our happiness—it’s a context where we can glorify the One who gives us true joy. 

As moms we spend a lot of time caring for our nuclear families, but what a blessing that we’re part of a much larger spiritual family! In the church, we get to love and be loved by our brothers and sisters in Christ.

We believe the Bible is trustworthy and true, but how do we explain that to our kids? Here are four helpful reasons from a theologian and dad of three.

With a little gospel imagination, we can see how the things that frustrate us about our kids now could be refashioned to glorify God and serve his kingdom.

Mother’s Day can be a time to mourn over what is broken, rejoice over what is good, and look forward to God’s final redemption.

Though much of our daily life may be marked by change and challenges, our ultimate hope and purpose in motherhood remains the same—even in a pandemic. We can live faithfully in this season as we depend on the Lord and point our children to him.

Even when our hearts feel cold, we can come to God’s word trusting in the promise of his presence to meet us.

At Risen Motherhood, we'd love for you to join our team for a Day of Prayer for moms across the world who are struggling with various effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. On Friday, April 24, once every hour from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. CST we want moms to pray for other moms around the world.

Instead of teaching our children to “follow their hearts,” we can help them understand that our hearts are meant to be led, not followed.

The idea of callings can be confusing. Instead of viewing callings as a way to find fun and fulfillment, let’s remember they’re fundamentally an opportunity to glorify God and find our purpose in him.
