Podcasts about this mother

Paul McCartney wrote “Let It Be” about a dream he had that his deceased mother Mary came to him in his dream and said “Let it Be.” This Mother's Day let's have some fun with the idea that “Mother Mary” represents the archetypal Mother, full of love and grace for her offspring (you and me) . Will we heed the lesson and Let it Be? Would that bring us peace this Mother's Day?

This Mother's Day, let's remember that the most powerful ministry happens not on stages or in spotlights, but in living rooms and kitchens where ordinary people do ordinary things in Jesus' extraordinary name. Tomorrow, as you're facing a sink full of dishes or a mountain of laundry, whisper to yourself, "This too is done in Jesus' name." When you're driving to another sports practice or helping with another project, remind yourself, "This too is ministry." When you're the referee for a sibling fight or explaining the same concept for the tenth time, say, "This too is sacred work." Whatever you do - every word, every deed - do it all in the name of Jesus, with a heart of gratitude. Because when we do, our addresses become beacons, our homes become sanctuaries, and our families become living testimonies of the Gospel at work in everyday moments.

This Mother's Day, we're celebrating the strength, resilience, and dedication of moms — both in life and in fitness. In this episode, we dive into how motherhood mirrors the mindset of a committed fitness journey, how moms can prioritize their health, and how they inspire the next generation through movement. Whether you're a mom or just love one, this episode is all about honoring the strongest people we know — inside and out.

Too many believers today are simply DRESSED to IMPRESS, & DRESSED for SUCCESS, but rarely DRESSED for the BATTLE. This Mother's Day we are going to teach you how to fight! CONNECT: Text “BRBELONG” to 651-419-4409 DONATE: bethelsrock.org/give LEARN MORE: bethelsrock.org NEW SERMONS | EVERY SUNDAY

This Mother's Day, Shane Willard brings a powerful message on Pentecost—not just a moment in history, but the beginning of something new: God's Spirit dwelling in people, not buildings.Through Acts 2 and rich Old Testament imagery, we see that God's presence now lives in us. The wind, fire, and voices mark a new kind of temple—a community of love, peace, and blessing for all people, everywhere.

Sermon Summary:In our "Rooted" series this Mother's Day, we explored what it means to be rooted in love through 1 Corinthians 13. We acknowledged both the celebration of motherhood and the pain this day can bring for many, recognizing that being rooted in love offers strength even in difficult seasons.We examined how the Corinthian church valued impressive spiritual gifts, knowledge, and eloquence – much like our culture today – but Paul challenged this value system, declaring that without love, these accomplishments amount to nothing. Paul's definition of love in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 culminates with "love never ends" – a truth that resonates with our deepest intuitions about meaning and purpose.We reflected on Ephesians 3:17-19, where Paul prays for believers to be "rooted and grounded in love" and to know "the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge." This reveals two different ways of knowing – intellectual understanding versus experiential relationship.The sermon highlighted how love alone endures eternally. While our beliefs, gifts, and achievements will pass away, only what is done in love lasts forever. When our actions are motivated by love, they create eternal ripples that extend beyond our lives.We considered how church exists to create bigger ripples of love together than we could individually. When we gather as the body of Christ, we participate in something that doesn't end.Finally, we explored how God's love is always present in the now – not holding our past against us or withholding love because of our future. Like Jesus weeping with Mary and Martha before raising Lazarus, God's love meets us in our present moment while knowing our entire story.This Mother's Day, we're reminded that whatever our experience – whether celebrating or grieving – love always has the final word.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

This Mother's Day, three mothers shared heartfelt messages about drawing closer to the Lord, placing their trust in Him, and embracing a childlike faith. May 11th, 2025

This Mother's Day, we honor the incredible strength and love of the mothers who shape our lives for the better. Those of us lucky enough to have them, or other nurturing parental figures, are truly blessed. But remember, not all maternal bonds are pure. What you think is love may be something darker, something that lingers long after the last breath. Proceed with caution, for not all mothers are what they appear, some don't live up to the title, if they're even living at all.

This Mother's Day, we'll explore the heart of motherhood through the lens of John 17, where Jesus said, “For their sakes I sanctify Myself.” In moments of fear, frustration, or uncertainty, God invites us to parent from a place of peace, faith, and purpose—seeing our children through their identity in Christ and speaking life into their future. Be encouraged and equipped to walk in your calling with renewed confidence, knowing your prayers and presence matter deeply.

In Part 2 (of 2) of our series on John 20, we return to the locked room where Jesus appears not in triumph, but in tenderness. This Mother's Day, we reflect on Thomas—the twin, the questioner, the one who names what so many of us carry: Unless I touch the wounds, I cannot believe. But Jesus does not shame him. Instead, Christ invites him—invites us—into the liminal space where wounds meet grace.Through Thomas's story, and through the witness of all who mother from their own woundedness, we glimpse a deeper truth: that faith can emerge from doubt, that healing begins with touch, and that even our broken places can become sacred portals. Blessed are those who mother, who mend, who believe without seeing—and who dare to reach for peace. Message by Pastor Jason Storbakken.

In a culture that celebrates open-mindedness and endless spiritual options, the claim of Jesus is strikingly clear: “I am the door.” Not a door. The door. The only access point to salvation, to eternal life, and to joy that doesn't fade. Religion can't save us. Good works can't unlock eternity. The door to Eden was closed by sin, and only Jesus can open what we lost. This Mother's Day, we'll explore the joy and hope found in the One who invites us in, not just to heaven someday, but to abundant life today. Because when you walk through the door of Christ, everything changes.

What's your one thing? In a world full of distractions, Jesus invites us to choose what matters most. This Mother's Day message dives into the story of Mary and Martha, exploring the tension between doing and being, and the power of choosing presence over performance. Join Laurie Hoyt as she calls us back to our first love, encouraging us to remember, repent, and repeat.

Have you ever noticed how the messiest, most unfiltered family photos often capture the truest moments of joy? Through the chaos of missing shoes, juice spills, and impromptu glitter projects, motherhood reveals profound spiritual truths that transform our understanding of God.This Mother's Day message explores three powerful "snapshots" from God's photo album that illuminate His heart toward us. First, we discover that love—both divine and human—is fundamentally a choice rather than a feeling. When the newborn glow fades and 3 AM feedings stretch our patience thin, parents choose love daily, mirroring God's decision to love us "while we were still sinners." This realization liberates us: since love is a choice, it remains possible even when emotions falter.The second snapshot reveals the sacred power of presence. Just as children demand our full attention ("Mom, mom, look!"), God prioritizes being present with us. We witness Jesus pausing amid a pressing crowd to acknowledge one desperate woman's touch—demonstrating that being present isn't a detour from purpose but is precisely the point. This challenges our achievement-oriented mindset, reminding us that relationship itself constitutes our primary purpose.Finally, we explore God as the ultimate provider, prepared for every circumstance yet sometimes offering protective "no's" rather than harmful "yeses." Like parents denying a toddler's request to lick the flyswatter, God's refusals often reflect perfect wisdom rather than indifference.Through practical spiritual practices like gratitude journaling, prayer of examine, and faith "scrapbooking," we can train our souls to recognize God's presence in both extraordinary and ordinary moments.

This Mother's Day, we're celebrating the unsung heroines of our faith and our lives.

This Mother's Day, Impact Church is going beyond the traditional narrative. Host Lindsey Burton leads a deeply moving panel discussion with brave women sharing their diverse experiences of motherhood. They open up about the challenges of infertility, the profound transformations in identity that motherhood brings, and the heartwarming journey of adoption. Whether you're a mother, hoping to be one, or simply want to understand the complexities of this role, this sermon will offer profound insights and heartfelt connection.

Motherhood often feels like a nonstop evaluation of what you do or manage in a day, especially around Mother's Day. But we are reminded that, just like Hannah, a mother's identity is rooted in being seen and loved by God—not in her endless tasks or visible results.Hannah's pivotal moment was when she opened her heart to God and was reminded of her worth, not just when her prayer was answered. This Mother's Day, discover deeper comfort and worth in God's unconditional love rather than the pressure to produce or perform. Listen to this uplifting message for more insight and encouragement for moms.Scriptures Referenced1 Samuel 1:1-28, 2:1-2; John 1:12; Galatians 5:22-23; Philippians 2:3Key InsightsYour identity isn't found in what you produce.

This Mother's Day at CCV, we're celebrating the impact of women who live out courageous faith. With special guest Jaime Wooldridge, we'll be reminded that even in uncertainty, God's faithfulness is worth trusting 11 out of 10 times.

“I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.” – 2 Timothy 1:5Mother's Day invites us to reflect on the deep, often quiet influence of a mother's faith. The Apostle Paul's words to Timothy reveal that sincere faith often passes from one generation to the next through the loving guidance of mothers and grandmothers. Today, we celebrate that legacy.A Mother's Work: Beyond MeasureWhen we think about the value of moms, it's usually in terms of intangible gifts—love, wisdom, compassion, and sacrifice. These are treasures that can't be priced.But what if we did try to measure the economic value of a mother's daily work?According to Salary.com, a working mother averages 54 hours a week managing her household in addition to her job. Stay-at-home moms? They often work the equivalent of 15-hour days, seven days a week. The roles include everything from chef and nurse to financial manager, event planner, and counselor.Based on these duties, a mother's annual salary would exceed $185,000—and that's before bonuses, overtime, or hazard pay. Factoring in those extras, a stay-at-home mom could easily command over $200,000 a year. And truthfully, she's worth every penny.Still, even that figure falls short of her true worth. The value of a mother's love and faithfulness can't be calculated. It's personal. It's spiritual. It's eternal.How Scripture Calls Us to Honor MothersThe Bible doesn't just acknowledge the role of mothers—it esteems it. Proverbs 31:28 paints a moving picture of a godly woman's reward:“Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.”Honoring your mother starts with your words. Tell her what she means to you. Thank her for the sacrifices she has made and the ways she has reflected God's love in your life.But biblical honor doesn't end with gratitude. It matures into care, especially as our mothers age.Honoring Through Care: A Biblical MandateIn Mark 7:10–13, Jesus rebukes the Pharisees for neglecting their duty to care for their parents, even though they claimed their resources were dedicated to God. Their so-called righteousness became a mask for selfishness. Jesus made it clear: caring for your parents is not optional; it's a direct expression of your devotion to God.In today's terms, honoring your mother might look like:Making time for her amid your busy scheduleOffering financial assistance or managing her needsIncluding her in decisions that affect the familyListening with patience and respectPraying for and with her regularlyThese acts aren't just thoughtful gestures—they reflect the heart of Scripture and offer a meaningful way to live out our faith in everyday life.Honoring a Legacy of FaithWhether it's your biological mom, your wife, a grandmother, or a spiritual mother who's poured into your life, this Sunday is your opportunity to show them they're not alone or forgotten.Let her know she's seen. Let her know she's loved. Let her know that her quiet faithfulness—the prayers whispered, the tears cried, the meals made, the lessons taught—isn't wasted. It is, in fact, shaping generations and pointing hearts toward Jesus.Because when a mother models faith, she's not just building a home—she's shaping eternity.This Mother's Day, let's rise up and call her blessed, not just with words, but with actions that honor God and her.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Is Bitcoin something that someone should have in their portfolio?

But it also surfaces a truth we all need to acknowledge: there are no perfect families. The Bible is full of flawed family dynamics—jealousy, rivalry, favoritism, rebellion—and yet, God still worked through those families to accomplish His purposes. This message explores how even in our mess, God calls us toward something better: the pursuit of a healthy family. Not perfect—healthy.This Mother's Day message outlines three biblical traits that characterize healthy families. These traits are not reserved for "ideal" households but are accessible to any family that's willing to trust God, lean into His Word, and do the work.Dysfunction in the Bible: You're Not AloneBefore we dive into healthy family traits, it's important to recognize that dysfunction is nothing new. The Bible gives us raw and honest pictures of broken family systems:Adam & Eve's family: Jealousy led to murder (Genesis 4). Cain couldn't handle being overshadowed by his brother Abel.Isaac & Rebekah's family: Favoritism and deception led to betrayal (Genesis 27). Jacob and Esau's rivalry split their household.David & Bathsheba's family: Lust and abuse of power caused trauma, loss, and rebellion (2 Samuel 11-15).Zebedee's family (James & John): Even Jesus' disciples struggled with ambition and pride (Mark 10:35-37; Luke 9:54).These examples remind us that family pain is part of the human experience. But they also reveal that God works with broken people to tell a story of redemption.Trait #1: Families Who Are Jesus-CenteredHealthy families don't center around trends—they center around truth. That truth is Jesus.Why it matters:Every family is centered on something—money, sports, school, success, or even the family itself.When Jesus is the center, God's Word becomes the foundation, and the Holy Spirit empowers the people in the family to grow and serve.What it looks like:Time: Prioritizing church, small groups, and faith-based community.Finances: Giving generously, and including kids in those conversations.Atmosphere: Creating a culture of worship, spiritual conversation, and daily discipleship at home.Key Scripture:Deuteronomy 6:4-9...

When did motherhood become a role we disappear into, instead of a life we grow within? In this heartfelt episode of Sarah’s Thoughts, Sarah Grynberg shares a powerful message for every woman who has ever lost herself in the beautiful, brutal role of being a mum. You’ll learn: *Why losing yourself in motherhood isn’t weakness, it’s a sign you’ve been putting everyone else first for too long. *How to gently reconnect with the parts of you that have been left behind. *What it means to show up for your dreams without stepping away from your family. *How your own aliveness might be the most powerful gift you can give your children. This episode isn’t about guilt. It’s about grace. It’s about remembering the woman you were before the world called you “Mum” and realising she’s still there, waiting. This Mother’s Day, don’t just be appreciated by others. Learn how to appreciate yourself, from the inside out. Purchase Sarah's book: Living A Life Of Greatness here.
