Prayer is so important. Jesus took time to pray often and for long periods of time. We as believers, should be spending time in prayer as well. However, some people find it difficult to spend much time in prayer. Today we will talk through tips for prayer as well as specific things we can pray for our kids.

Mom guilt is real! Pinterest, social media, and more can leave us feeling inadequate. How can we tell the difference between guilt and conviction? Will our kids be ok if we aren't perfect? What should we do when we make a mistake or sin?

I am so incredibly excited to get to speak with Marnie Swedberg today!! I admire her and love her faith and contagious love for God. She is so wise, and it is a privilege to have her on this show!

We discuss what success looks like from a biblical perspective, partnering with God, and how we can make sure we are growing in our spiritual walk with God. She provides so many practical tips, and I know you will learn so much from listening to her speak.

This was such an inspiring couple to speak with. Andrew was raised in foster care. As a couple, they have had many foster children, plus worked in a group home with kids. They are passionate about loving foster kids and investing in them. Plus, they provide practical tips for ways families can minister to foster families. This was great information for me since we have too many children to be able to foster kids.
