Summary
You're not the first mom to wonder, "How often should I bathe my kid?" or "How do you teach a stubborn child to obey?" Since other moms have asked these same questions, there may be someone with the biblical insight you need in your season of motherhood. In this episode, Laura and Emily remind us that looking to and learning from a mom who is in a season ahead of us can be a helpful way to apply biblical truth to the difficult situations in our lives! Despite our different life circumstances, we can learn from and teach one another because of our common status as believers in Christ. From one momma to another, let's pass on God's wisdom.

| 0:00.0 | Motherhood is hard. One second, we think we're doing a good enough job and the next we |
| 0:09.6 | feel like the worst mom on the planet. Which is why we need the refreshing truth of the |
| 0:14.4 | gospel to be repeated over and over, giving us hope in the everyday moments. So, mama, |
| 0:20.7 | whether you're sipping cold coffee or doing a sink full of dishes, we hope you'll find |
| 0:24.9 | the truth, encouragement and laughter here. This is the Risen Motherhood Podcast. Thanks for joining us. |
| 0:37.5 | Welcome back to another episode of the Risen Motherhood Podcast. I'm Emily here with my |
| 0:42.6 | sister in law Laura. Hello. And before we get into our topic today, we just wanted to let you guys |
| 0:48.0 | know, in case you didn't, that you can actually read our shows. We have transcriptions |
| 0:53.3 | through our show notes. And we started this a while ago, a year or two ago. Yeah, because we were |
| 1:00.4 | hearing from moms that maybe English was not their first language and their browser, Google |
| 1:05.6 | Translate can translate those transcriptions into their language. We also heard from moms with |
| 1:11.8 | hearing impairments that this was just an easier way, maybe to consume the podcast. And just even |
| 1:18.2 | for any mom to be able to read it on her phone or read it on her computer, I mean, maybe it's just |
| 1:22.2 | easier if you're working, you're nursing, whatever. There are probably a lot of reasons. And so we |
| 1:27.0 | know that quite a few access those, but if you haven't seen those, there's a super easy button to |
| 1:31.4 | click on on every show's show notes page, which you can find on our website. And you can access |
| 1:37.4 | those and read the shows. So yeah, and a huge thanks to our patrons because you guys are the ones |
| 1:43.0 | who fund this because this actually does cost us money to do. So we are really thankful for you guys |
| 1:50.5 | and excited that hopefully more women get to consume the show this way. Yep. All right, so we're |
| 1:56.0 | going to get into our topic today. We are talking about a fun topic for Emily and I because we have |
| 2:01.0 | been really, really blessed in this area over different times of our lives. And we're talking about |
