Motherhood is a gift—but let’s be honest, it’s also messy, exhausting, and sometimes overwhelming. In the midst of endless to-dos, tantrums, and sleepless nights, how do we hold on to the hope of the gospel and let it shape our motherhood?

This week on The Love Offering podcast, I had the joy of speaking with Emily Jensen about her new book, Gospel Mom: The Grace of Christ for Weary Mothers.

Emily beautifully reminds us that we don’t have to strive for perfection or rely on our own strength in motherhood. Instead, we can rest in the grace and truth of Jesus. During our conversation, we discussed:

  • How the gospel reframes our perspective on parenting struggles.

  • Why your worth isn’t tied to how “well” you mother.

  • Practical ways to center your heart on Christ in the chaos of daily life.

  • The freedom that comes when we stop chasing worldly standards of motherhood.

If you’re feeling weary or wondering if you’re doing enough, this episode is for you. Emily’s words are like a deep breath for tired moms, pointing us back to the One who holds all things together.

I pray this conversation encourages you to see that God’s grace is sufficient in every season of motherhood. He’s with you in the mess, and His love is transforming you and your family.
