The Heidi St. John Podcast

You long to be the mom your kids need, but often you’re convinced you come up short. The label “not enough” seems to be stamped across everything you do—and yet parenting is the one thing you want most to get right. What if the solution is simply to embrace the truth that you are not enough—but God is?

In Gospel-Centered Mom Brooke McGlothlin reveals how our entire approach to motherhood shifts when we stop chasing our vision of a perfect family and start full-out pursuing God.

Brooke McGlothlin is co-founder and President of The MOB Society, author of Praying for Boys: Asking God for the Things They Need Most, co-author of Hope for the Weary Mom: Let God Meet You in the Mess, and the Hope for the Weary Mom 40 Day Devotional. She’s also creator of the Fight Like a BoyMom Program, and a mother of two boys who believes God has chosen her to fight for the hearts of her sons. Her newest book, Gospel Centered Mom, has just released. Brooke can be found most often with her nose in a book, or cheering like a mad woman as her baseball boys take the field.

Your job as a mom is to encourage your kids to follow in Jesus’ footsteps. You (and all other Christians) will let your kids down, so they need to know that Christ is the one they should be depending on. It pleases God when we focus not only on ourselves in the battle, but on the One who has won the battle. You will be blessed as you have the opportunity to lead others around you to follow Jesus!

2 Timothy 2 1-7

We either believe that Romans 8:28 is true or we don’t believe it.  We choose to believe God works all things together for good for those that love Him – or we don’t – and what we choose to believe frames how we see and handle hardships when they come.  So listen today and let’s talk through this.  Where’s God when it hurts?

The Heart of Anger – Anger! Is it ever a problem in your home? Do your children ever speak to you in angry, disrespectful tones? Or do they fight between themselves? Have you ever lost your patience when dealing with an infuriating situation? If you honestly answered “yes” to any of those questions, you could use this book. Of course Christian families experience episodes of frustration and anger. Here’s a book which goes beyond the external manifestations of anger and deals with the internal source: the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

 

Have you ever been so angry with your kids that you turned into “that” mom? Me too. It’s funny how the sweet children we love from morning until night can also be the ones who see the worst in us.

Join me as I talk about the very real issue of mommy anger with my friend, Wendy Speake, and learn how God offers help for the weary mom. Find Wendy on Facebook here.

Do you believe your struggle with anger stems from the wrong behavior you see displayed in your children? The knee-jerk reactions and blow-ups you’re facing are often a result of a bigger set of “triggers.” Some of these are external, like a child’s disobedience, backtalk, or selective hearing, while others are internal, like an overflowing schedule, sleep-deprivation, or perhaps your own painful experiences from childhood. Triggers: Exchanging Parent’s Angry Reactions for Gentle Biblical Responses examines common parenting issues that cause us to explode inappropriately at our children.
