Summary

Today I want to talk about something that I refer to a lot in my podcasts: the sovereignty of God. This particular doctrine has been absolutely pivotal in helping me trust God both in the everyday and in times of crisis. It’s one that has been a safety net and indescribable comfort when nothing else could comfort me. Many Christians say that they believe in the sovereignty of God, but there are varying perspectives on what that actually means. A few questions that come to mind and will be answered in this podcast:  Is God active or passive with regard to the world that He made? Is there any sense in which God wound up the world, set certain parameters, and then let it go? Or is He actively governing His creation and making determinations about what will and what will not happen?

Hey moms, welcome to this episode of the Dorenda Wilson podcast. I'm Dorenda, wife to one, mom to eight,

Nana to nine, and 26-year veteran homeschooling mom. I'm also the author of the Unhurried homeschooler,

0:22.9

a simple, mercifully short book on homeschooling, and the four-hour school day, how you and your

0:27.9

kids can thrive in the homeschool life. I also wrote a devotional maid specifically for

0:33.6

homeschooling moms, and it is called Unhurried Grace for a Mom's Heart, 31 Days in God's

0:39.6

Word. I encourage you to check out all three of those books. You can find them on Amazon. You can find

0:45.3

them at my website, Dorinda Wilson.com, and the four-hour school day can be found in both of those

0:50.6

places and at any of your favorite booksellers. Well, I think most of you are

0:55.5

somewhat familiar with the passage from Titus II that talks about older women, teaching the younger

1:01.1

women, sort of mentoring them. We don't see a whole lot of that going on these days. And I just want

1:07.9

to know you to know that there is actually a resource that I've made available

1:11.8

for moms to be mentored.

So I'd love for you to listen in and hear a little more about it.

1:24.1

If you're like me, you've struggled to find community.

1:30.7

Finding a community that is truly grounded in the Word of God and provides that balance of mentorship and friendship can feel impossible. I want to offer you a place

where you can find your tribe of like-minded moms, moms that are seriously wanting to grow in their faith,

2:02.8

This community is where my primary attention will go so I can really serve you well.
