Summary

There are so many things pulling at mothers in this generation—the tug-of-war over our hearts is intentional. Fear, distractions, worry. Satan's goal is to distract moms from what really matters—the bringing up of our children. While the world will tell you to mother your kids from your own strength—God has another way! He wants to replace your weakness with His strength in a beautiful exchange. Your job has never been more important than it is right now. Listen in and be encouraged as Heidi talks about courageous mothering.
