The Balanced MomCast | For Overwhelmed Christian Moms Seeking Time Management, Work Life Balance, and Focus

This essay was part of a series I wrote on my blog, Exposing Lies Moms Believe. In it, I identify the root of a lie I hear every single day and the Truth that sets me free. This is Chapter 20: Exposing Lies Moms Believe: I Don't Have Enough Time. Listen in.

Today I’m reading one of my favorite essays of all time and one I wish I could speak to each and every one of you personally. It was part of a series I wrote on my blog called Exposing Lies Moms Believe. Also, you’ll notice a reference to Facebook, because I wrote it when I was still active there. This is Chapter 19: Exposing Lies Moms Believe: I’m a Bad Mom. Listen in.

If you're weary and wondering if your hard work will ever produce any fruit, this one's for you.
