Itâs no secret that the Internet has changed and shifted multiple times over since Risen Motherhood kicked off in 2016âas technology moves at an ever-faster pace, Emily and Laura thought it would be fun to think about what the future of motherhood in the digital age will look like. More importantly, they share a few practical thoughts on how we as Christian moms can think wisely about the way we consume content from online influences. The cherry on top? They end with a few fun predictions for one another: what their future projects may look like, how the Lord will continue to work in and through them, and more. Fortunately for us, God has already planned every step; we canât wait to see what he has in store.

Over the years, so many moms have shared that our Scripture shows on the podcast have been ones they go back to time and again, remembering the truths of Godâs Word as they wash dishes, head to school pickup, and more. As we think about the legacy we want to leave at Risen Motherhood, itâs so important to us that we remember this was never about us; it was about Christ. We hope this Scripture show encourages and emboldens you, dear mom, to keep coming back to Godâs Word and rooting yourself in the truth of the gospelâbecause it changes everything.

When weâre organizing the family calendar, packing lunches, or making a snack for our toddler, it can be tempting to feel as though no one sees our work as momsâbut hereâs the thing: God does see. God cares! Loving our children and faithfully tending to the tasks in front of us is a way we live a life of worship and make a Kingdom impact. In this episode, Emily and Laura unpack the phrase âevery moment mattersâânot because weâre expected to be perfect in every moment, but because no act of love and service is ever wasted. When we recognize that seemingly unspiritual, everyday things can be a chance to enjoy God and point others to his love, we can live for him in moments big and small.

Anytime you produce something public, you open yourself up to criticismâand Risen Motherhood was no different. Over the years, we received feedback of all kinds: encouraging, loving, constructively critical, and at times, hurtful. Maybe youâve experienced the same in your own ministry work, or simply in everyday life. In this episode, Emily and Laura unpack some of these critiques and share their hearts for why they did or didnât make certain decisions throughout the life of the ministry. Honestly, R|M wasnât for everyone. But the gospel is for everyone, and weâre so grateful for the ways the Lord used us to bring the hope of Christ to so many moms. To him be the glory!

We know these moments come rarely: when a season of life has such a clean end that you get the opportunity to stop and reflect on all that God has done. As we had a chance to serve in this capacity over the years, we were also deeply changed. Even though we haven't shared all the details publicly, trying to faithfully deliver quality content, lead a team, and navigate the online world with grace shaped us tremendously. God has worked through his Word on our hearts too, and today we want to take some time to share a bit about those lessons we've learned. No matter the season God has placed you in, he's growing you. We hope this episode encourages you to reflect on the ways God is teaching you to align your heart to his.

So letâs just say we reach a point where weâre pros at this gospel + motherhood thing⊠what do we do if it all starts to feel a little stale? As believers living in a fallen world, we know that the process of sanctification is often challengingâwhich is why we need more than just a framework or a system to keep us going; we need the Holy Spirit. In this episode, Emily and Laura share what theyâve learned personally through the ups and downs of pursuing gospel motherhood, encouraging us to keep coming back to the Lord time and again. Take heart, friend: our God is gracious and he will not allow you to be snatched from his hand (John 10:28). We can trust that even in seasons when we donât see the fruit of our efforts, the Spirit is still at work.

Weâve spent a lot of time in this series looking at how gospel motherhood brings freedomâso what do we do when our freedom feels in conflict with another momâs preferences? (Oof. Tricky, right?) In this episode, Emily and Laura discuss how we can honor moms who think differently than we do by asking questions while holding to our own convictions, being charitable, treating others the way we want to be treated, and prayerfully trusting the work of God in another momâs life. Loving one another well often requires patience and sacrifice, but by Godâs grace, we can learn to love other moms while standing unified around the most essential gospel truths.

Many of us know it from memory: âthe heart is deceitful above all elseâ (Jer. 17:9). So in a world that shouts we should âfollow our heart,â what does it look like to be in the worldâacknowledging our human interests and passionsâwhile not being of the world, pursuing these things at all costs? In this episode, Emily and Laura share a few examples and questions we can consider when evaluating our heart motivation behind decisions big and small. The application will look different for all of us, and thatâs the beauty of it! God has wired each of us differently, and he knows our hearts inside and out. In the words of the psalmist, âno good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightlyâ (Ps. 84:11). Will you trust him with it, friend?

You know that feelingâwhen your shoulders tighten or your stomach turnsâwhere something youâre doing just doesnât feel quite right. Thatâs often your personal conscience, and we know firsthand how challenging it can be to discern your conscience vs. conviction from the Holy Spirit. The encouraging news? God has given us both for our good! In this episode, Emily and Laura share some questions we can consider as we evaluate the decisions and beliefs we hold most tightly to in motherhood, as well as where we can extend grace to the moms who do it differently. With Godâs Word as our anchor, all of us moms have freedom to make different choices and still pursue a gospel motherhood.

Take a quick look aroundâsee anyone that has your exact life? Same, friend. And yet, how often do we feel the pressure to do things exactly the way another mom does them? As believers, we know God made us uniquely in his image⊠so how does this play out in our lives as moms? In this episode, Emily and Laura share how our differing seasons and life circumstances not only free us to pursue Godâs design for our motherhood, but also serve as the setting for his work in our lives. May this reminder free you to plant your feet firmly in the life God has given you, trusting his path forward for you and your family.

For most of us, the idea of spiritual disciplines isnât new: we know as moms pursuing Christ, itâs important to be in Godâs Word, pray, and enjoy godly community. But⊠we also know itâs easier said than done. How do we find time between packing lunches and keeping everyoneâs schedules straight to pursue spiritual habits and disciplines? In this episode, Emily and Laura give us a fresh take on what it means to evaluate our individual needs as moms, and how this frees us to look at spiritual growth differently than many of us have before. By Godâs grace, these practices will become less of a checkbox and more of a canât-miss as we move forward in faith.

In this episode, Emily and Laura walk through the gospel framework, providing questions and Scripture along the way for you to apply to your own motherhood. Let this news bring hope to your weary heart today, mom: the Bible really does provide the answers to your modern motherhood questions.

Think fast: when you first became a mom, what expectations did you have? Chances are that many of us planned to be a certain type of mom, intentional or not: the crunchy mom, the do-it-all mom, the âlittle bit of everythingâ mom, and so on. But it doesnât take long in motherhood to realize that our ideal doesnât always match our life circumstances: thatâs why in this episode, Emily and Laura dive into the freedom of gospel motherhood. Inspired by their new book, Gospel Mom, they share three truths we find for motherhood in Scripture and the everlasting hope they bring. Letâs break free of the labels and find our true identity in Christ.

Weâve spent the past nine weeks talking about all of the ways we can pursue Godâs design for us as women, but hereâs what it really boils down to: mom, do you know how loved, how cherished, how valued you are by your Creator? Do you believe youâre made for more than eating PB&J leftovers at the sink and skipping a shower for days on end? (Ask us how we know!) In this final episode of the Whole mini-series, Emily and Laura remind us that we have dignity and valueânot because we claim it for ourselves, but because we bear the very image of God. Even in the busyness of motherhood, we can live as women who are loved by God, redeemed in Christ, and have an important mission in his kingdom. What would it look like to honor his fullness of love for you today?

Letâs talk about the elephant in the room when it comes to the Christian life: forgiveness. Itâs hard, right?! But as we see with every command God gives us, the act of forgiveness is for our own good and flourishing. Many of us have seen how unforgiveness doesnât stay contained; it seeps out until it permeates a lot of areas of our lives, including motherhood. Thatâs why Emily and Laura spend this show taking a hard look at forgiveness: what it is, what it isnât, and why it matters. In this world, we will have troubleâbut our Redeemer has overcome it all. In him, we find the power and freedom to forgive as weâve been forgiven.
*Note: We know this is a broad topic and understand we couldnât possibly cover all of the intricacies and experiences at play for you personally. Our hope for this show is to provide you with a few thought-starters and Scripture references to understand forgiveness, but if needed we encourage you to reach out to a trusted friend, pastor, or counselor to speak into your personal situation and circumstances as you work through forgiveness in your own relationships.

Mom, whenâs the last time you had FUN? For so many good reasons, our tendency as moms can be to stay behind the scenes and keep the trains running on time. We know this is a big responsibility, and we go all-in on taking it seriously. But what if we let our hair down a bit, and experienced the joy of a motherhood rooted in Christ? In this show, Emily and Laura remind us that as whole women of God, we can experience joy, laughter, thrills, and funâknowing that in Christ, weâre not as fragile as we may feel. When we set our fears down and remind ourselves that Godânot momâis our familyâs refuge, strength, and protector, the goodness that awaits on the other side may just take us (and our kiddos) by surprise.
