Summary

So let’s just say we reach a point where we’re pros at this gospel + motherhood thing… what do we do if it all starts to feel a little stale? As believers living in a fallen world, we know that the process of sanctification is often challenging—which is why we need more than just a framework or a system to keep us going; we need the Holy Spirit. In this episode, Emily and Laura share what they’ve learned personally through the ups and downs of pursuing gospel motherhood, encouraging us to keep coming back to the Lord time and again. Take heart, friend: our God is gracious and he will not allow you to be snatched from his hand (John 10:28). We can trust that even in seasons when we don’t see the fruit of our efforts, the Spirit is still at work.

0:13.8	worst mom on the planet which is why we need the refreshing truth of the gospel to be repeated
0:18.9	over and over giving us hope in the everyday

0:33.6	joining us. Welcome back to another episode of Risen Motherhood. I'm Emily Jensen. I'll be
0:43.4	joined by my co-host Laura Wiffler in just a minute. Today is our very last show of the gospel
0:48.7	mom series as we talk through what kind of moms we want to be. This is from chapter 11 of the book. And if you

1:00.0	book, all of the information and the essential principles are still there on our show.
1:04.8	It's also been so much fun to see you all sharing pictures of gospel mom, the book, in your

1:26.9	and it's a collection of our writings over the years
1:29.7	as we've processed the gospel and motherhood through the little years. While Gospel Mom is kind of like
1:34.6	the deep dive resource for exploring how God has wired you for your motherhood and how to walk
1:40.1	with him in all types of different situations. A million tiny moments is the quick gospel
