Summary

God is the source of all good things, and it’s critical that we pass this concept on to our children. Join me with my new friend, Katie Bennett as we talk about living simply in light of eternity. It’s another way we can join in #becomingmomstrong !
Katie Bennett is the creator of the Embracing a Simpler Life blog and podcast, and the author of Heavenly Minded Mom, through each of which she encourages women stop loving the world and instead follow Jesus with everything they’ve got. She and her husband Mitch live outside of a small town in rural Missouri along with their three children.

More About Heavenly Minded Mom: The lives of moms are all too often consumed with wearisome, empty striving. We work to keep up appearances, meet worldly standards, and find satisfaction in the offerings of this life such as success, admiration, and ease. However, God has set eternity in a mother’s heart, and deep inside, we long for more.
In Heavenly Minded Mom, Katie Bennett beckons us into a new way of viewing our present reality by rising above the ordinary and routine to see a bigger plan and purpose for motherhood.
This uplifting book offers moms the wisdom of Ecclesiastes, wrapped in the hope of the Gospel, and presented in bite-sized portions. The 90 compelling meditations, scripture readings, and invitations to journal and reflect, will encourage us to reevaluate how we envision our lives and to claim a heavenly mindset towards our mothering tasks. These inspirational readings will help us discover a new way of looking at our responsibilities as a mom through God’s eyes.
Embrace a simpler life filled with God’s promises and love as you reflect on God’s powerful work as it has woven through your past and present in anticipation of its impact in the future and your spiritual legacy.
