In this episode, we will look at the description of a mother in Psalm 128:3 - a fruitful and thriving vine.  While all women wish this could be true of them, often we find ourselves feeling dry, feeble, and fruitless.  Andie introduced an evaluation tool that will help you take a closer look at the eight pillars of thriving matrescence:  

1. Spiritual - A deep, abiding connection to God 
2. Identity - Becoming a self-differentiated person
3. Emotional - An understanding of your own emotional ecosystem
4. Physical - A sustainable & healing nutrition and movement plan that drives your health
5. Sexual - A thriving libido that deeply connects you with your spouse with a healing & redeemed sexual imagination
6. Mental - A thorough understanding of any maladaptations of your neuro system and how to overcome
7. Parenting - A confident practice of shepherding your children and managing your home 
8. Ministry - A fulfilling and clear sense of the calling you have to your broader community 

At Gospel Matrescence, we are creating a self-evaluation tool that will allow you to work through each of these eight areas with a Matrescence Coach or small group.
