As moms, we quickly learn that no two children are alike. Their personalities, giftings, and temperaments are uniquely wired by God. But as one person parenting multiple kids, how do we adjust our approach to meet each child’s needs without falling into favoritism, comparison, or frustration? In this episode, we’re exploring the balance of parenting each child uniquely while maintaining consistency, fairness, and grace. We’ll discuss how to recognize and respond to the differences in our children, the biblical foundation for individualized parenting, and practical ways to nurture and disciple each child according to their strengths. Because mothering isn’t a one-size-fits-all formula—it’s about truly seeing your child and parenting them in a way that honors the calling God has placed on their life.✔️ Identify key differences in your children that should shape your parenting✔️ Gain biblical wisdom on how God parents us uniquely✔️ Avoid entitlement and bitterness among siblings✔️ Learn practical ways to nurture each child individuallyJoin us for this encouraging conversation—because your kids don’t need a perfect mom, just one who sees and loves them well. 💛Thank you to this season's sponsor, BJU Press.

Spiritual drift doesn’t happen all at once—it’s the little things, the subtle shifts, the busyness that sneaks in and quietly pulls our hearts, and sometimes our families, away from Christ. In Episode 116 of the Mom to Mom Podcast, September invites us to take a closer look at these small but significant moments and ask the big question: how can we keep our homes anchored in God’s truth amidst the chaos of life? We talk about recognizing the quiet signs of spiritual drift, why seemingly small compromises—like skipped prayer times or misplaced priorities—can add up, and how we can create practical routines to keep faith alive in our homes. From morning devotionals to dinner-table conversations and even tech-free evenings, we’re breaking it all down into simple, actionable steps. What happens if spiritual drift has already taken hold? We’re sharing grace-filled ways to lovingly guide your family back to Christ without shame or discouragement. Mama, if you’ve ever felt like your family’s faith has been slowly fading, this episode is a gentle but powerful reminder: small, intentional steps can make all the difference. Let’s talk about how we can keep Christ at the center—one moment, one habit, one prayer at a time. Let’s walk this journey together and pursue hearts and homes firmly grounded in God’s truth. 💛 Thank you to this season's sponsor, BJU Press. You can find them at https://www.bjupress.com/

🌸 Raising Daughters in Today’s Culture 🌸 Our daughters are growing up in a world unlike any we’ve ever known—one where social media and the internet shape much of their daily lives. As moms, we’re on a mission to equip them to walk in faith, pursue purity, and delight in a life that honors God. In this episode, we’re diving into the tough questions: ✨ How can we help our girls navigate the lies of the culture while building a passion for holiness? ✨ How do we teach them to value home without devaluing their giftings and future callings? ✨ And how do we protect their hearts in a world saturated with comparison, competition, and chaos? Join us for an honest and hope-filled conversation on how to raise girls who shine God’s light in a dark world. Let’s lean into Titus 2, 1 Timothy 4:12, and 1 Corinthians 6:20 as we uncover practical ways to inspire and guide the next generation of women to stand firm in truth.

How do we keep hope alive when our child’s path doesn’t look like the one we envisioned? In this week’s episode, we’re opening our hearts to the struggle of loving unconditionally and holding onto faith—even when our child questions, doubts, or drifts. Here’s what we’re diving into: 💬 How do we balance unconditional love with firm, loving boundaries? 🙏 When hope feels fragile, what promises of God do we cling to? 🤲 Practical ways to surrender our children’s journey to God, trusting His plan. With verses like 2 Peter 3:9 and 3 John 1:4 guiding us, this episode is a reminder that while we wait, God works. Even in the waiting, we’re not alone. 🌱 And as Kate Battistelli says: “God’s dare often feels risky because it’s outside our control, but He reminds us to be patient in the waiting, knowing that the story isn’t over yet.” Grab your coffee, take a deep breath, and join us for a conversation filled with encouragement, wisdom, and love that never lets go.

In a culture where the lines between right and wrong often seem blurred, our children are being bombarded with messages of “my truth” and cultural relativism. As Christian moms, it can feel overwhelming to teach our kids to stand firm in God’s absolute truth when the world says otherwise. But here’s the good news—we’re not alone in this journey! In this episode of the Mom to Mom Podcast, Kate, September and Jamie dive deep into raising kids in an age of cultural relativism. We explore how to equip ourselves and our children with biblical values that don’t change with the shifting culture. We talk about practical tips for every age group, how to address tough issues like gender and identity, and how to have those important conversations that will strengthen your child’s faith in the face of opposing beliefs. It’s not easy, but it’s crucial. Romans 12:2 reminds us to be transformed by the renewal of our minds and not to conform to the patterns of this world. We’ll show you how to apply this truth as you guide your kids to discern what is good, acceptable, and perfect in God’s eyes. Tune in to be encouraged and equipped as you to raise strong, faith-filled kids in a culture that often rejects truth. Let’s pass on the torch of faith to the next generation!

We are living in a world of quick fixes and instant everything. In just a few clicks, we can have nearly anything we want in less than 24 hours. We want it fast, and we want it now. But God isn’t in a hurry, and as we grow in our relationship with Him, we have to learn to trust His timing in everything, no matter how long it takes. As moms, how do we resist the urge to expect immediate results in both our spiritual lives and with parenting our kids? How do we model it, teaching them to trust God’s timing? Our culture is speeding up, but He’s calling us to slow down and do the opposite of what the world is doing. So, how do we learn to slow down and trust His timing in a world shouting at us to hurry up? Join Kate, September, and Jamie as we share what has helped us develop spiritual patience and endurance for the long haul of parenting. "Wait for the Lord; be strong and let your heart take courage. Wait for the Lord." -Psalm 27:14 Thank you to this season's sponsor, BJU Press. You can find them at https://www.bjupress.com/

Today we’re chatting about the overwhelm of motherhood. Between the three of us, we have 16 children and have experienced more than our share of overwhelm in our mothering journeys. This episode originally aired in Season 1 of our show. Be sure to head to https://momtomompodcast.com/5 for the show notes.

There are plenty of issues that can divide Christian moms, with well-meaning and Jesus loving women on both sides of any argument. Yet the debate runs deeper than the typical "mommy wars" because at the heart of the division is our commitment to God and His Word. Today, we’re going to be talking about the differences between personal convictions (sometimes called freedoms) and Biblical commands. As we chat, we’re not necessarily going to share our individual beliefs about specific issues, but rather how to put our convictions in their rightful place. This episode will conclude season 5 of the Mom to Mom podcast. In the coming months, Kate, September, and Jamie will be taking a hiatus to enjoy some rest. They'll be back in September with new episodes, eager to join the conversation around the long and wide table of motherhood. In the meantime, we all hope you’ll still tune in as we rewind through some of the most popular episodes of the first four years.

In the American church, there's been a growing, gaping hole between the generations. Older women often feel disconnected and irrelevant to younger women, easily intimidated by modern technology and navigating social media and it’s easy for many to feel out of touch. Many younger women feel like they’re doing just fine on their own and don’t see the need for biblical mentorship. Others find that when they do ask an older woman to mentor them, they get turned down and they wind up navigating as best they can but desperate for help from someone who’s been there and done that. Our goal in this episode is to encourage the hearts of both older and younger women and give strategies to help you connect and share creative ways to bridge the massive gap between the generations.

We live in a crazy, mixed-up world, vastly different from the world 20 years ago. Back then, there were no cell phones, only very rudimentary computers, no internet or social media and the world seemed much calmer as we all had more time to spend in face-to-face communication. We weren’t looking more at our phones and less at the world around us, the way many of us do today. Just stand in line at a restaurant or sit at your gate in the airport: ninety percent of people are staring at their phones rather than interacting with the ones around them! But even 20 years ago, parents still needed to impart basic life skills to children, skills all kids need to learn before they move into life as an adult. There are several critical ones that Kate, Jamie, and September are going to chat about today. Listen as they hit on some of the major topics for the current culture we are living in right now.

For Christian families, discipleship that goes to a child’s heart will give them a passion for Jesus like nothing else. We mamas do our utmost to raise our children according to biblical principles and standards as we do our best to model Christ’s love to them and everyone in our lives. To chat all about how to focus on discipleship and why it’s so critical for our kids, we’re welcoming Leslie Nunnery, an author and mom of four who along with her husband, David, founded Teach Them Diligently, the nation's premier source for gospel-centered homeschool events. Leslie has been on our podcast before, on Episode 53 which is all about finding your parenting vision and is well worth listening to. She’s the author of two books and she’s written multiple homeschool courses. But whether you homeschool or not, Leslie is full of wisdom about how we can focus on discipleship and why it’s absolutely critical to Christian families, especially in the times we live in.
