Hey friends, happy summer. You know how I talk about community and how important that is?

Well, my community told me that I need to take a stinking break because I am not very good at that.

And so what I did is I listened. and so this month I'm going to be

ringing you the most popular most downloaded episodes from three years of

archives still come find me though on Facebook and Instagram because I want to hear from you and I hope you enjoy this episode.

Hi and welcome to the Mom Struggling Well podcast. My name is Emily Thomas and I am a mom on a mission to get a new perspective.

Y'all I am not proud of it but I spent far too long waiting for my daily irritations to resolve before the good times can begin.

And I'm thinking the struggles are just going to keep coming, so I might as well get a new plan.

God promises if we persevere through our daily struggles, our character will be built and

we'll end up with a hope that doesn't disappoint.

And I don't know about you, but my hardest days happen when I've lost sight of that hope.

So if that's your story too, join me each week as I interview

someone who is passed from just struggling to struggling well.

Hey friends, welcome back. You have episode 42 here and this week I am honored to share the story of my sweet friend in real life

Amber Newberry her journey has been a bumpy one all of ours have really right one of my main goals of this whole beautiful time-consuming

labor of love that the Mom Struggling Well show is is to bring you a chance to

either identify with a woman and say, oh man, me too, or that you'd hear a story that's not in any way like yours and begin

to see, if you hadn't already, how comprehensive is God's love for us and the forgiveness

he bought, it covers all different kinds of mistakes.

This is an episode you may not want to have your kids around for or go ahead.

It will make for some really interesting conversations afterwards.

The topics that we're going to cover are rape and abortion.
