A recent post online claimed churches shouldn’t celebrate Mother’s Day because “Sunday is for Jesus, not moms.” 👀

So… should churches avoid honoring individuals altogether? Can we celebrate people without taking the focus off Christ? And why does this conversation stir up such strong opinions among Christians? 

In this episode, we lovingly unpack the tension between being Christ-centered and honoring people well. We talk about Mother’s Day in church, criticism within the Body of Christ, compassion, discernment, and why making people feel seen actually matters more than we may realize. 

Our heart in this conversation isn’t division; it’s understanding, grace, and truth. 💛 

We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments: How do you think churches should approach honoring its members?
