Friend to Friend: Hope for your Heart and Help from His Word

A Mother and Her Sons: The Ties That Bind


Listen Later

My friend, Michelle Cowling, joins me today on the podcast! She’ll share about her own insecurities as a first-time mom, how her philosophy of motherhood has changed over time and how God has taught her to not only receive grace but to also extend that same grace to her children. We also discuss the important role a mother plays in her son’s life and how that role changes as our children grow. Whether or not you have sons, this episode is for you! Friends and relatives of mothers, I believe this episode will give you insight -equipping you with knowing how to better pray for and graciously walk along side your mom friends.You will find Michelle’s transparency and humble approach to motherhood refreshing and encouraging! If you, like myself and my guest, have sons, then count it as an added bonus! She shares insight and resources from walking the same path of mothering sons. We take time to speak hope and courage to single moms and conclude that a mother’s heart to see her children succeed cannot rest alone in a husband, mentor or "perfect home” but can only truly rest in the heart of her Savior. Happy listening!
