The Grace Filled Mom Show: Faith-Filled Routines and Biblical Mindset Tips for Moms

Episode Summary
Welcome back to The Grace Filled Mom Show! In this first episode of Season 2, I’m sharing a heart-to-heart about what God has been teaching me in this season of pregnancy — the gratitude, the discouragement, and the faithfulness He’s calling me to in the middle of it all.

We’ll talk about how the story of Gideon’s 300 in Judges 7 has been reminding me that when things look impossible, that’s when God gets the glory. If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, worn out, or like your dreams are out of reach, this episode will encourage you to keep pressing into faith and faithfulness, even in the small and unseen moments.

Plus, I’ll share what’s new for Season 2, including deeper conversations, practical tips for simplifying your routines, and resources to help you grow closer to God as a busy Christian mom.

Thanks Dad. My earthly Dad and my Abba.

This is a completely raw, unedited bonus episode with all the pauses, tears, and filler words but I pray it blesses you today and you know you are loved and you have an Abba, a Heavenly Papa who loves you.

There is a long pause at one point but stay with me I was emotional.

 "For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father." Romans 8:15

"For thy Maker is thine husband; the Lord of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. For the Lord hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God." Isaiah 54:5-6

In today’s powerful and heartfelt episode, we’re diving into the ancient Japanese art of Kintsugi — the practice of repairing broken pottery with gold — and how it beautifully reflects what God does in our hearts as Christian moms.

Motherhood can leave us feeling tired, stretched, and even broken. But what if the very places we feel cracked are where the Lord wants to pour in His healing, His strength, and His glory?

If you’ve ever felt like you’re not enough, this episode will remind you that God doesn’t waste your weakness — He transforms it into something beautiful. You’re not broken beyond repair, mama. You are being restored by the hands of the Master.

✨ In This Episode, You’ll Hear:

• What Kintsugi is and how it applies to your life as a mom
• How to see your cracks as sacred, not shameful
• Encouragement from Scripture for moms who feel weary or inadequate
• Practical ways to invite God to fill the broken places with His gold
• A prayer for moms who feel overwhelmed or unseen

📖 Bible Verses Mentioned:

• 2 Corinthians 12:9 (KJV) – “My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.”
• Isaiah 61:3 – “To give unto them beauty for ashes…”

How Shedding Pride Leads to Patience, Joy & Deeper Connection

Do you ever feel like you've lost yourself in motherhood?

You’re not alone, friend — but maybe the real answer isn’t about trying to find your old self. Maybe it’s about finding new life by losing yourself in Jesus.

In this heartfelt episode, we’re flipping the script on that worn-out narrative of burnout and rediscovery. Instead of desperately trying to hold onto who we used to be, let’s talk about the freedom that comes from laying it all down at the feet of Jesus — pride, selfishness, striving — and allowing Him to transform us into the mom, the woman, the daughter of God He created us to be.

You’ll walk away with:

• A biblical view on “losing yourself” that actually brings more joy, patience, and peace

• A fresh understanding of how motherhood can sanctify, not strip away your purpose

• Matthew 16:25 (KJV) – “For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.”

• Galatians 2:20 (KJV) – “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me...”

If this episode spoke to your heart, would you share it with a friend who needs encouragement too?

And if you’re struggling with your identity as a mom, I want to personally invite you to join the Grace Filled Mom Collective — our warm, Christ-centered online community.

Inside, you’ll find a whole exclusive Identity in Christ for Moms series, including:

• A breakdown of the Do-Be-Have model and why it doesn’t work

• A biblical look at how to stop striving and live from your true God-given identity

• Encouragement and support to walk this out in your everyday life

The Collective is just $7/month, and I pray it becomes a space of deep encouragement and transformation for you and your family.

and don’t be afraid to lose yourself in Jesus.
That’s where you’ll truly be found.

Do you ever feel like slow living sounds dreamy… but impossible for your real, busy mom life? Like you’d need to live in a cottage, wear a linen dress, and grow your own sourdough starter just to get started?

In this episode of The Grace Filled Mom Show, we’re redefining what slow living really means and how you can start practicing “slowish living” right where you are—even in the middle of laundry piles and snack crumbs.

You’ll learn:

• What slow living is (and isn’t)

• Why slowing down is essential for your faith, your family, and your health

• How to embrace a slower rhythm even in a fast-paced world

• Simple, realistic ways to bring more peace and presence into your daily routine

We’re not aiming for perfection—we’re aiming for more connection with God and more joy in the everyday.

📝 Key Takeaways:

• Slow living isn’t about aesthetics. It’s a mindset of presence, purpose, and peace.

• You don’t have to overhaul your life—just start with one small shift in rhythm.

• Slowish living means making space for what truly matters: your faith, your health, your family, and your joy.

• God calls us to be still—not to hustle harder. Slowing down is often how we hear Him more clearly.

• “Be still, and know that I am God.” – Psalm 46:10 (KJV)

• “And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.” – Luke 5:16 (KJV)
