... let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us… (Hebrews 12:1 - NIV)
The race we are on takes perseverance, friend.
We need the Lord's strength. We need his grace. We need his help.
Join me today for a short time of prayer, lifting our families and needs before the Almighty God. May He bless us with exactly what we need for THIS season of family life.

Discipling our kids is important... and it can feel totally overwhelming.
When something really matters, it's easy to start worrying about it. Stressing about it. Sometimes we feel paralyzed by how big it feels, and wind up not doing very much at all.
Thankfully, God is bigger! He is the One who tells us how important it is to love him, follow him, and share about him with others. He gave us our children, and gave us the calling to teach them about the gospel and show them what a relationship with Jesus looks like. He promises to give us wisdom (James 1:5), to give us the right words (Luke 12:12), and to be with us always (Matthew 28:20).
So, join me today for a short prayer for our sweet kiddos. Let's pray together for our words, for their faith, and for the Lord to bless every discipleship effort in our homes.
hugs & blessings,
Jess

Episode 207 // There are a lot of things that feel important as a parent. Things that really are important! But as Christian parents, there is one true priority in our parenting - discipling our kids.
“Bring [your children] up in the training and instruction of the Lord,” Ephesians 6 tells us. “Impress [my commandments] on your children,” Deuteronomy 6 tells parents.
But life is busy! The days are full! Kids have tiny little attention spans! How do we do it??
Today, I want to share 5 things that my husband and I prioritize in our daily rhythms to ensure that discipling our kids is a priority. It might be loud and crazy, and it rarely looks like the perfect picture in my head, but it’s happening. And it matters.
Join me today for some encouragement in parenting your sweet little ones for the glory of Christ!
hugs & blessings,
Jess

We need Jesus. Join me today for a short time of prayer to seek the Lord's blessing in our family relationships.

Episode 206 // What is family life all about? CONNECTING with our people.
If you get all the stuff done and your house is spotless and the bills are paid… but you aren’t connected with your people, it won’t really matter. Without depth and intimacy in those relationships, life can’t feel full and joyful.
So today, as we continue to look at some family rhythms that can help us love our people well, we’ll take a look at how to deepen our family relationships day by day - no matter what kind of crazy season of life you’re in.
Join me to walk through some of the daily rhythms in my home that help me stay connected with my people. With 4 kids ages 4 and under, the days are busy and time goes fast. And just like you, I want my marriage and my relationship with my kids to grow deeper every day. Here are my tips for making that happen.
hugs & blessings,
Jess

Pray with me, friend!
We all want to feel successful in our days. But ultimately, success comes from the Lord. He fills us, leads us, helps us, strengthens us. We need the endurance, patience, creativity, and grace that He gives.
So today, let's take a few minutes to pray together for our families, the things that fill up our days, and for the Lord to bless all of it.
hugs & blessings,
Jess

Episode 205 // Being a stay at home Christian mom is SUCH a great blessing. But we live in such a busy, distracting, technology-filled world that it can be hard to understand what “success” really looks like… let alone, how to get there.
So today on the podcast, I want to share all the details of my morning routine - which sets up my day for success. These are the activities that help me put Jesus first, stay present with my kids, get the housework done, and ENJOY my time with my family.
It’s not a checklist to follow and it’s not a magic wand to solve every problem. But being intentional about how you start your day is a key part of deepening family relationships and enjoying family life.
Ready? Let’s jump in!

God teaches us and shapes us through his Word. Reading the Bible is so valuable! And one of my favorite parts is that we can give those Scriptures back to God in prayer.
So, join me for a few minutes today as we pray together through a few of the Proverbs that have been jumping out to me over the past few months, as I've been reading Proverbs daily.

Jess

Episode 204 // There are some daily habits that will change your life. Over the past few years as a mom, I’ve found that reading the Bible every day is DEFINITELY one of those habits! And over the past few months, I’ve started reading the Proverbs every day too…
… And I love it.
Do I miss a few days a month? Of course. Is the book of Proverbs the only Bible reading I do each day? Usually not. Am I finding that God is changing me through this daily Proverbs reading?
You bet He is!
God is so good. So faithful. And Proverbs is a GREAT place to dive into daily Bible reading. In today’s episode, I’ll talk through why this is the case and share my own personal experience with reading Proverbs daily. Join me for some biblical encouragement today, friend!
