Deepen your Christian walk with the Finding Your Identity In Christ devotional workbook!

Episode 249 // It’s easy to get caught up in the flow of everyday life. But do you realize that there is an Enemy at war against you? At war against your family?

As Christians, we often think about the power of Jesus Christ in our lives and we pray for the Holy Spirit’s help as we struggle, grow, and journey through life. And the Bible is clear that these things are true and good.

But the Bible is also clear that we must be careful, alert, sober-minded, and intentional in how we live - because “your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” (1 Peter 5:8)

If you find yourself struggling against things like distraction, family conflict, big emotions, or other common worldy issues today - there is something bigger going on, and there is something that the Lord wants you to do about it!

Join me today, friends, for biblical encouragement along with some practical tips to keep the Lord first in our lives and to care for our families well.

hugs & blessings,

Jess

Last week, we looked at caring for our hearts when our kids struggle. Today, let’s dive into some practical tips for how to HELP them when they are struggling.

I’ve been a family counselor for over 10 years, and I’ve thought through these tips based on what will help ALL kids - teens and toddlers and beyond. Every person is different, every relationship is different - but there are some tried and true strategies that help all of us.

Join me, friend, and let’s help each other, encourage each other, take a deep breath, and wade into the dark waters that our kids are sometimes swimming in.

Episode 247 // When you are hurting because your kids are hurting… what can you do?

We usually want to jump to action steps to help them. What should I say? What can I do?

Those things are important… and we’ll tackle that next week :-) But we can’t just jump over the pain that WE experience when our kids are struggling. And that’s what we’re looking at today.

When our kids hurt, we hurt. When they are sad, we are sad. When they are anxious, we are stressed. It’s hard when they’re toddlers, harder when they’re teens, and might feel impossible once they’re grown and moved out.

But it’s not impossible to help, and it’s not impossible to manage our own big emotions about it all.

Join me today for 10 ways you can care for your own heart as you walk with your children through the dark waters they sometimes swim in.

These aren’t tips that will make it all go away. It won’t mean that you stop caring and helping. But hopefully, it can make a difference in allowing the Lord to comfort you and shepherd you through a hard season of motherhood.

Let’s dive in.

hugs & blessings,

Jess
