As Christian parents, it’s easy to assume our children will naturally shine the light of Christ wherever they go—whether on the soccer field, in the classroom, or among friends. But is that a fair expectation? In this episode, we explore what it truly means for kids to “be the light,” looking at Jesus’ own thirty years of preparation before His public ministry. You’ll be challenged to reflect on whether you’re expecting too much, too soon from your children, and encouraged to focus instead on guiding, modeling, and creating space for them to grow in healthy relationships, emotional resilience, and spiritual grounding. This week’s takeaway: take inventory of your expectations, lead with connection, and remember that preparation under your roof is just as valuable as influence in the world.

In this episode, we flip the focus from kids to moms and talk about the life-changing power of spending time with God. From morning devotionals to worship, scripture listening, and even experimenting with new ways to connect with Him, we’ll explore how “God time” fills us up in ways self-care trends can’t. You’ll hear why starting the day with His presence makes parenting easier, love more natural, and life more peaceful. If you’ve been running on empty, this conversation will encourage you to shift your perspective and discover how time with God overflows into every part of your motherhood journey.

In this episode, we explore the powerful practice of letting children teach what they’ve learned. From a family discussion on sowing and reaping to the surprise of a five-year-old remembering and explaining a Kingdom principle, we discover how teaching helps kids internalize truth at a deeper level. You’ll hear practical ways to invite your children to “own” spiritual lessons—by sharing them with siblings, parents, or even grandparents—and why making it fun cements the learning in their hearts and minds.

Do you ever feel the weight of being judged—or catch yourself judging another mom? In this episode, we dive into what Scripture says about judgment and explore how our thoughts about others often reflect our own fears. Through practical reflection and God’s healing presence, you’ll learn how to release judgment, walk in greater freedom, and parent with confidence rooted in Christ.

As moms, it’s easy to get swept up in endless to-do lists, soccer practices, church events, and daily chores. In this episode, we pause to reflect on the story of Mary and Martha—reminding ourselves that the most important part of our day is sitting at Jesus’ feet. Discover how spending intentional time with Him equips us to love our families better, bring peace into our homes, and say “yes” only to what He’s truly calling us to do. This is your encouragement to trade performance for presence, and to find joy in knowing Jesus before doing for Jesus.

Do you ever feel like you’re running at max capacity all the time? You’re not alone—and you’re not doing it wrong. In this episode, we explore why life always feels full, how God stretches our capacity in different seasons, and why true peace doesn’t come from an empty calendar, but from His presence in the middle of it all.

In this heartfelt episode, we unpack a simple but powerful parenting truth: you can’t control your child’s behavior, but you can control permission, consequences, and the culture you set in your home. Inspired by a one-on-one conversation with her almost-six-year-old, we explore how to clarify roles, set boundaries, and embrace the honor of guiding our children with love and Kingdom principles.

Do your expectations of your kids reflect the grace God extends to you? In this episode, Emily invites Kingdom mamas to examine where perfectionism may be creeping into their parenting. She shares how unrealistic expectations can lead to performance-based households—and how God’s love calls us to parent differently. Discover how to cultivate a learning environment filled with connection, grace, and peace that draws your child’s heart closer, not further. Let's parent the way God parents us.
