Have you become a victim of the Toxic Mummy Culture? In this episode, Cass helpfully highlights 4 mainstream 'personalities' of motherhood that are easy to fall into but not great at giving God glory. Perhaps as you listen, you may find yourself aligning with one or all: Negative Nelly, the 'I Deserve' mum, the 'Hot Mess' mum and the Perfectionist. Wherever you're at, (mum or not!), this is a super helpful conversation to remind us of who we need to be and what we need to exemplify  in our character as a mum.

Bible Passages Used:

Psalm 127:3-5
Titus 2:7
Proverbs 1:8-9
Colossians 3:21

 “Prose discourse” is a form of language that doesn’t have any metrical structure to it. It isn’t the fast-moving action of narrative, nor is it the metered, imaginative language of poetry. Yet when you read biblical law codes or Paul’s letters, you’re reading prose discourse. https://www.facebook.com/jointhebibleproject/posts/prose-discourse-is-a-form-of-language-that-doesnt-have-any-metrical-structure-to/1052568501613210/
