Summary

As you make the meals, change the diapers, settle the arguments, and fold the laundry day after day, do you ever wonder if any of it really matters? With so many immediate needs in front of us, it can be easy to lose sight of our eternal purpose. In this episode, Emily and Laura discuss some simple (yet profound) truths that help clarify our destination and goal as believers in Christ. When we remember that we’re being conformed to the image of Jesus and one day we’ll dwell with him for eternity, we can hold things loosely in this life and embrace our role as servants doing the Master’s work—even if it’s the same work day after day.

We’re grateful to Harvest House Publishers for making this week’s show possible. Check out Love Made by Quina Aragon, Bible Infographics for Kids; and Courageous World Changers by Shirley Raye Redmond at harvesthousepublishers.com.

0:00.0	Today's episode is brought to you by Harvest House, a publishing house that produces fresh,
0:04.2	innovative products that inspire creativity, encouraged families,

0:11.8	encourage kids to grow in their faith, including Love Made by Keena Ergon, Bible Infographics for Kids,
0:17.5	and Courageous World Changers by Shirley Ray Redmond. By all these books and more,
0:21.4	Harvest House Publishers.com. For the rest of April, you can receive free shipping and 40% off
0:26.3	books purchased on their website with the code Stay Home, S-T-A-Y-H-O-M-E. We're so thankful for Harvest House
0:33.6	support. Motherhood is hard. One second, we think we're doing a good enough job, and the next,
0:44.3	we feel like the worst mom on the planet, which is why we need the refreshing truth of the gospel
0:49.6	to be repeated over and over, giving us hope in the everyday moments. So, mama, whether you're
0:55.8	sipping cold coffee or doing a sink full of dishes, we hope you'll find truth, encouragement,
1:01.2	and laughter here. This is the Risen Motherhood Podcast. Thanks for joining us.
1:17.3	Hey friends, it's me Laura Poppinin again. Just to remind you all that today's show was
1:21.7	recorded quite a while ago, well before coronavirus affected all of our lives. You're going to hear
1:27.1	Emily and I talk about this on the show, but today's episode is actually one part of a two-part
1:31.9	series on sanctification in the life of a mom. I think right now, all of us can say we are being
1:36.7	sanctified majorly by the changes and effects in our lives from the coronavirus, right? Which is
1:41.9	why you might find it kind of weird that we didn't mention it on today's show if you didn't know
1:45.5	that we recorded it a while ago. Anyway, I just wanted to give you a heads up about that and let you
1:50.6	know that you're going to hear us about kind of lighter, regular life things that are sanctifying
1:54.6	us and it might feel a little off for our current moment. But we do trust that God can use it and
2:00.1	hopefully it will still be an encouragement to you. And actually, it's been really fun to hear
