Hey friend, you're listening to Truth Talks with Tara, a podcast dedicated to helping you know, love, and live God's Word.

I'm your host, Tara, and I am so glad that you're here.

Each week, we'll dive into scripture together.

We'll answer questions we all have about the Bible and about how to live for God,

as well as learn from some of my amazing friends and guests.

If you want to see how God's word can truly change your everyday life, this show is for you.

My prayer is that we would all grow in our knowledge of God

so that we can live boldly for Him. So, what do you say? Let's get into it.

Hey, hey, sweet friends, and welcome back to Truth Talks with Tara. It is your friend and host Tara.

And I'm so excited about today's episode. It is going to be a really special and heartwarming one.

And I cannot wait to have you come along. But before I do that, it's Mother's Day week.

If you're listening to this on Tuesday, May 9th, Mother's Day is this coming Sunday. And in honor of that,

I wanted to invite some of my incredible friends to speak some wisdom over you. And these are

people who are mothers at literally every stage of motherhood. And I wanted them to write a few

sentences, a paragraph of wisdom and encouragement for you, and they totally delivered.

Now, I don't know about you, but sometimes buying gifts for a mom figure or someone, you know,

this doesn't have to be your actual mom. If your mom is not with you anymore, or if you don't

have the mother figure in your life, if there's someone who's even like a mom to you,

sometimes it can be really challenging to find a gift for someone who means so much.

Or maybe they say, you know, I don't want anything. I have everything I need, but you want to get

them something special and meaningful. And also easy to get because perhaps you're down to the wire

as it is Mother's Day week. So I want to propose a suggestion for you. Grab a copy of my book, surrender your story,
