The Battle Is the Lord's June 15–21 | 1 Samuel 17–18; 24–26; 2 Samuel 5–7 Hey mamas! This week we're diving into the life of David—and while we often focus on David and Goliath, I discovered something powerful during my study: Goliath wasn't David's biggest battle. David faced giants, betrayal, jealousy, waiting, heartbreak, anger, uncertainty, and years of not knowing how his story would unfold. Yet through every chapter, David continued to trust God. And honestly, that's exactly what motherhood feels like sometimes. In this episode, we talk about: ✨ David and Goliath: Facing the giants in our own lives ✨ Why David saw God when everyone else saw a giant ✨ The battles that come after the victory ✨ Saul's jealousy and the danger of comparison ✨ Jonathan and the power of covenant friendship ✨ Abigail's wisdom and how she saved David from acting out of anger ✨ Forgiveness, healing, and finding beauty for ashes ✨ Learning to let God fight your battles ✨ What it means to let Christ be the Author and Finisher of your story Questions to Ponder This Week ❤️ What giant are you facing right now? ❤️ Are you focusing more on the giant or on God? ❤️ Who are the Jonathans in your life? ❤️ Who needs you to be a Jonathan for them? ❤️ Is there a situation where you need to respond more like Abigail? ❤️ What chapter of your story are you trying to control instead of turning over to God? Giants Moms Face Today
Financial struggles Marriage struggles Depression Anxiety Faith crises Health challenges Exhaustion Loneliness Going back to work Difficult relationships Wayward children Spiritual struggles
Whatever giant you are facing, remember:
"I come to thee in the name of the Lord." (1 Samuel 17:45)
David teaches us that faith is not believing the giant isn't real. Faith is believing that God is bigger. Favorite Takeaway The battle isn't yours to carry alone. David trusted God through Goliath. David trusted God through Saul. David trusted God through waiting. David trusted God through uncertainty. And God never left his side. The same is true for you. This Week's Invitation Take one battle, one burden, one giant you're carrying and place it before the Lord. Pray specifically. Invite Him into the struggle. Ask Him to help you see your circumstances through His eyes. Then take the next faithful step forward and trust Him with the outcome. Remember, Mama... Maybe your giant isn't standing in a valley holding a spear. Maybe it's anxiety. Maybe it's depression. Maybe it's uncertainty. Maybe it's a relationship that needs healing. Maybe it's a child you're praying for. Maybe it's a chapter you never would have chosen. But David's story reminds us: The giant isn't the end. The waiting isn't the end. The heartbreak isn't the end. God is still writing. Let Him author your story. Let Him fight your battles. Let Him bring beauty from your ashes. Because the same God who led David through giants, Saul, Abigail, and finally to the throne is leading you too.

Episode 42: Beauty for Ashes — Letting Jesus Christ Transform Our Motherhood | Isaiah 58–66 Come, Follow Me Moms | October 12–18, 2026 “The Redeemer Shall Come to Zion” Mama, what are you living without right now? Maybe it's sleep, peace, friendship, hope, or simply the energy to make it through another day. Maybe you're carrying grief, disappointment, or a burden nobody else knows about.

Episode 41: He Hath Borne Our Griefs & Carried Our Sorrows | Isaiah 50–57 + General Conference This week on Come, Follow Me Moms, we’re studying Isaiah and talking about some of my favorite messages from General Conference! Isaiah teaches us something every overwhelmed, exhausted, worried mama needs to hear: You were never meant to carry everything alone. Isaiah prophesied of Jesus Christ as “a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.” He didn't just come to save us from our sins—He came to bear our griefs and carry our sorrows. He understands the worry, loneliness, exhaustion, heartbreak, mom guilt, and seasons when life looks completely different than we thought it would. Pasted markdown Sometimes we pray for God to take the hard thing away, but instead He says, “I'm going to walk through it with you.” In this episode we talk about:

And when what you’re carrying feels too heavy—He will carry you. Isaiah begins with the word comfort, and these chapters are filled with reminders for anyone who feels tired, overwhelmed, afraid, lost, or unsure of what comes next. We talk about:
Come, Follow Me Moms | September 21–27 Isaiah 13–14; 22; 24–30; 35 “A Marvellous Work and a Wonder” What if the things that feel broken in your life aren’t actually finished? This week in Isaiah, we see warnings about pride, worldliness, and turning away from God—but we also see an incredible message of hope, healing, and restoration through Jesus Christ. Isaiah describes broken walls, barren ground, heavy burdens, wandering people, and things that seem beyond repair. But that isn’t where the story ends. He also describes the wilderness blooming, the blind seeing, the deaf hearing, sorrow disappearing, and God’s people being restored. In this episode, we’re talking about what all of that means for us as moms. We’ll dive into:
