Mom-guilt is a widely accepted reality for many of us, but Beth and Christi debunk this so called "truth" this month as they chat the difference between guilt and conviction. Sit back, relate, hear ideas on how to conquer mom-guilt and remember freedom and permission aren't cuss words. Mom has needs too! Bible verses for the month are Galatians 5:13 and I Corinthians 6:12
