It may be that you are seeing your child struggle. There's something hard. You want to help out, but you know that no matter how much you pour into that child or try to solve the problem, it's not enough. In that situation,

then where do you turn for help? Well, I'm John Fuller, along with our vice president of

parenting, Dr. Danny Werta, and I turn to Danny for help. But right now let's go ahead and hear from

Jim Daly. He and I had the opportunity to speak with Rhonda Stapi and she shared very candidly

about some of the ways that she's

struggled as a mom and how God has carried her through those difficult times.

I was really intrigued by your observations about King David's mom.

We normally don't, you know, we think of King David.

I had never thought about it.

You don't think about his mom.

What caught your attention about the kind of mom King David must have had?

Okay, the first thing is, her name is not mentioned in the Bible.

I mean, I'm like, are you kidding me right now?

She phrased David, King David, and she doesn't get a shout out with her name.

But what I love about the story of King David

is, you know, we know the story when he was going to fight the giant

and he goes to Saul and he says,

I'll fight him, I'll fight him right now.

He's like a 17 year old when God gets a hold of a teenager's heart right and Satan knows that and he comes to kill, steal and destroy and we get to be the mother in there that guards them and guides them.

But he tells Saul, God gave me victory over a lion and he gave me victory over a bear.

I know he will give me victory over this giant. Time out. This is a teenager. When did

this little boy fight a lion and a bear when he was protecting his father's sheep on a hillside?
