  • Mom Guilt, Anxiety, and the Gospel

    Mom Guilt, Anxiety, and the Gospel
    Jan 27 2026
    Have you ever ended the day wondering if you’re doing motherhood all wrong? In this episode, I’m joined by Bible teacher, author, and mom of three Abbey Wedgeworth for a deeply honest conversation about the guilt so many mothers carry: the fear that we’re ruining our kids. Author of Help! I’m Ruining My Kids, Abbey gently dismantles the lies of shame and perfectionism and reminds us of a hope-filled truth: nothing in motherhood is beyond redemption. We talk about lifting our eyes off our mistakes and shortcomings, and fixing them back on Jesus Christ. This episode is an invitation to breathe again, loosen the grip of guilt, and to remember that God’s grace is sufficient, even in our weakest moments. In this episode, we talk about: why so many moms quietly believe they’re “ruining” their kids how shame and mom guilt distort the way we see ourselves (and God) when expectations of motherhood don’t match reality setting realistic rhythms and healthy limits without fear or pressure how God redeems our personal parenting stories breaking free from the comparison trap in motherhood If you’re a mom navigating unmet expectations, anxiety, comparison, or postpartum struggles… this episode is for you.

    When A Cancer Diagnosis Changes Everything
    Jan 20 2026
    In today’s episode, we sit down for a deeply honest and hope-filled conversation about what it looks like to trust God when life takes an unexpected and heartbreaking turn. Tveen Verano shares her journey of walking through her son’s cancer diagnosis… not from a place of having it all figured out, but through surrender, grief, and steadfast faith. This conversation is a reminder that faith doesn’t always look pretty or put together. That sometimes it looks like showing up and clinging to Jesus, even when the outcome is uncertain. In this episode, we talk about: what it means to grieve and yet still have hope how God meets us in the valley, not just on the mountaintop learning to anchor our hope in Christ rather than in outcomes wrestling honestly with fear, waiting, and unanswered prayers encouragement for anyone who is barely hanging on Whether you’re a mom walking through a diagnosis, someone facing unexpected hardship, or simply in a season where faith feels heavy: this episode is for you. You are not alone sister, and Psalm 34:18 reminds us that God is near to the brokenhearted.

    The Truth About Godly Marriage that Nobody Talks About
    Jan 13 2026
    What does it really look like to build a marriage that honors God — not with perfection, but through faithfulness? In today’s episode, I had the honor of hosting Chelsea Smith, author of I Do Today. It was a refreshingly honest, funny, and biblically grounded conversation about marriage, growth, intimacy, and keeping Christ at the center in a culture that pulls couples in every direction. With 25 years of marriage in her back pocket, Chelsea shares practical and life-giving advice that helps couples stop striving for an unrealistic “perfect marriage” and instead, commit to growing together — spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. In this episode, we talk about: how to anchor your marriage in Christ when culture says otherwise how respect and playfulness belong together in a godly marriage what surrender looks like when spouses feel pulled in different directions God’s design for intimacy — including sex — as something holy and life-giving navigating social media, comparison, and outside voices as a married couple Chelsea reminds us that the strongest marriages aren’t built on flawless behavior, but on daily faithfulness, intentional conversations, and choosing each other. And ultimately, keeping the Lord above each other. Whether you’re newly married, decades in, or praying for restoration, this conversation will encourage you to take one faithful step forward today.
