May 19, 2021 Jess Hammond -- Teach, Train, and Hold 'em with an open hand!
Listen in on the conversation between my friend (who also happens to be my pastor's wife), Jess Hammond. She gives amazing insight into recognizing your own season of motherhood and cheering for others as they step out into their callings. When we do this, it helps curb comparison and ultimately changes our heart. Jess also brings light to the hard truth that it's our responsibility to train our children up to have an experiential knowledge of who Jesus is and not shy away from the task -- even if we feel ill equipped. Learning from Jess is like gulping water from a fire hydrant...be ready... because she brings so much thirst-quenching goodness!

May 12, 2021 Call the Midwives: Shiphrah & Puah
This is a biblical lesson about two brave women who were midwives to the Hebrew women. Their names were Shiphrah and Puah. When faced with a difficult decision — Take a life or potentially lose their own — they chose to follow their calling and preserve the sanctity of life. God rewarded them for their obedience. And even though they did not see all of the fruit of their bold choices, God used their story to fulfill the covenant He made with Abraham four generations earlier. These brave women help us understand the importance of fearing (having a reverential awe) for God, more than fear of the thoughts and opinions of man. We will always sacrifice for things (and people) we value. What’s God calling you to be obedient about? Are you being challenged to stand firm on beliefs, convictions, and ideologies that may not be popular opinion? Blessings don’t often come without a sacrifice and Shiphrah & Puah’s story is no different.

May 05, 2021 Angela Buck - Mission vs. Method Mothering
Kids don’t come with an owner’s manual… But we do have The Word of God as the ultimate mothering guide. Sometimes, it’s easy to be distracted with all of the self-help and parenting books available, and it’s even easier to become discouraged when we fall short and don’t measure up to worldly standards of parenting. One of Angela’s key mothering verses is Isaiah 30:21. It says, “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” Angela knows when she strays off course - as we all do - the Lord is gracious in helping us steer back on track to the mission of training up our children in His ways; seeking to raise up a generation of Godly men and women. There is no perfect child, there is no perfect parent - but we do have the perfect Heavenly Father who guides us through every single step of our warrior raising journey.

April 29, 2021 The Shunammite Woman
Her story is found in 2 Kings 4 and 8. She was a prominent woman who believed God would keep His promise. This Old Testament Warrior Raiser has a commendable faith that modern-day mothers can learn a lot from. When our dreams seem dead and gone — we can seek The Promise-Keeper because He is always faithful to fulfill His word.

April 21, 2021 Julie Savageau, Empowered in a Hidden Role
Julie has a beautiful testimony of finding purpose in pain. She brings a story of hope and encouragement to any mother – whether they are in a season of a cute grief or working behind the scenes, day in and day out — without any acknowledgment from the world around her. Julie knows the Lord has given a message for her season: to be, “Empowered in her hidden role.” And even if no one else notices all that she does… God, El Roi does. He sees her, knows her, and hears her… And he sees, knows, and hears you too!

April 13, 2021 HAGAR, A Warrior Raiser Seen By God
We find Hagar, an Egyptian slave to Sarai (Abram’s wife) is found in Genesis 16. She had no rights, was given away to be a surrogate for her barren mistress, and was treated harshly by the very woman who’d offered her up as a replacement. Hagar became a single mother and ended up as an outcast. But even when the people who were meant to care for her mistreated her — God saw her, heard her cries, and met her at the point of her need. Hagar’s story is one of hope — because no matter what you’ve done, or what’s been done to you, God will meet you wherever you are. He is El Roi, The God Who Sees!

April 07, 2021 MY MOTHER, THE WARRIOR RAISER
In this series of learning about Biblical Warrior Raisers, I’ve invited my own mother, Lynn Petrosino – the first Warrior Raiser in my life – to share her motherhood journey. She’ll share her experience as a military mom who was newly married, newly acquainted with the Lord, and she’ll share some of her motherhood struggles and successes as well. Now a grandmother, Lynn has a wealth of knowledge to impart to this generation of mothers. Our children model our behavior and I am grateful to have such a Godly influence on my life.

March 31, 2021 Eve - The First Warrior Raiser
The first.
Doing something that has never been done before. Exploring a world and leaving your mark for others to see. We all strive for that in some ways. There is only ONE woman who has ACTUALLY been the first in almost everything – Eve.
As we begin the series in Biblical Warrior Raisers...it just makes sense to start at the very beginning...so let's start with The First Warrior Raiser.

March 24, 2021 We Are the Warrior Raisers
Women, regardless of our status, consistently struggle with how we value ourselves and the work we do. Young, old, married, single, working or stay-at-home — all women, especially mothers, have a longing to be seen, known, and valued. God has called us to steward our lives - and our children - well because, ultimately, we are raising warriors.
