Summary
There is just something about music that helps us remember things we've learned in a way that other methods can't match! In this episode, Laura and Emily celebrate our opportunity to worship God through song. No matter what our singing voices sound like, we can all benefit from remembering God's goodness and faithfulness through shared songs in the Christian faith. By inviting these moments of worship into our homes, we're able to experience the joy of knowing God and resting in his promises as a whole family.

| 0:39.0 | Well, welcome to another episode of Risen Motherhood. I'm Laura and I have my sister-in-law, Emily |
| 0:43.4 | here with me. Hello. And today we are talking about a very fun topic. We're talking about music |
| 0:49.1 | and moms and motherhood. But before we get to that topic, we wanted to ask you guys real quick. |
