Summary
Maybe it's related to a petty thing, or maybe it's rooted in a big daily decision, but all moms face familiar feelings of guilt. The question isn't, "Do we battle guilt as moms?" but, "What will we do with it?" Will we continue to live under a dark cloud of condemnation, or bring our questions to the throne of grace? In this episode, Emily and Laura explore the common underlying reasons for mom guilt, and start the conversation about how to deal with. Regardless of what you discover about your heart as you examine your guilt in light of scripture, there is only one outcome in the gospel: freedom. Glorious freedom.

| 0:37.4 | Well, welcome back to another episode of Risen Motherhood. I'm Emily Jensen here with my sister |
| 0:42.2 | in law, Laura Whiffler. Hello, hello. Before we jump into our topic today, we wanted to share, |
| 0:48.0 | we have another awesome free new print from Give It Pretty and its Colossians 32. Such a mind on |
| 0:57.6 | things that are above, which is something that we like to talk about a lot here at Risen Motherhood |
| 1:02.7 | is just keeping our eyes fixed on Christ and remembering the gospel and living in light of those |
| 1:07.2 | truths and not being controlled by our circumstances or the things of the earth. So again, go to our show |

| 1:26.2 | Okay. I just whizzed through that one. You did whizzed. Because today we're talking about a topic |
| 1:34.8 | that I think every single mom is going to identify with. We're talking about mom guilt. |
| 1:40.1 | Yeah, mom guilt is kind of, I don't know. I think it's kind of a topic we don't address very much |
