Identity in Christ for Moms | Biblical Confidence, Freedom from Guilt, Healing from Shame, Closer with God
There is a yearning inside of you for a deep and meaningful relationship with God. You love Him, but not as much as you know you could. Or should.
You struggle with feelings of guilt because you know that often you’re just going through the motions rather than eagerly drinking from the well that never runs dry.
You go through spurts of motivation and excitement and then crash down on feelings of discouragement, apathy, or hopelessness.
I know what it’s like to feel just a little lost. A little bit stuck. Or even, just flat-out complacent.
I understand that the reality of mom life and the day-to-day tasks can get in the way of all our best intentions. I also know that sometimes it’s just sheer exhaustion that keeps us from moving forward and growing in the Word of God and in our faith.
God knows that motherhood is demanding. Yet He made a way for you to be a mom and have a vibrant spiritual life and connection with Him at the same time. He means for you to thrive in life, not merely get by.
Let me be that voice in your ear (literally and figuratively) pushing you forward. Encouraging you. Sharing stories of healing and victories. Reminding you of His amazing love and amazing grace.
And, maybe, giving you a swift kick in the pants to keep you going.
My name is Helen Siemens, and in this podcast, I want to talk to you like I would to a friend over a hot cup of coffee, reminding you of the truth you already know. Stirring you up to love and good works. Cheering you on as your sister in Christ, walking with you through spiritual growth and intentional living.

Why are Christians using the same kind of language that unbelievers use and fail to honor God as the true and Holy God that He is?
God is not like us. He deserves our reverence.
The world is in need of a Savior! And they need one that is better than your coffee. Let's have a little chat about it.

This is the story of how I met my husband. It's not all pretty. It wasn't a smooth ride to the altar, so to speak, but we serve a great God who redeems, who heals, who saves.
Whatever it is that you're holding onto, that thing that He's asking you to surrender, trust Him with it. His plans for you are bigger than your plans for yourself and He does indeed make beauty from ashes.

Although Betty Klassen has a rich heritage, her faith had to become her own.
In today’s episode she shares how, through witnessing the faith of another in the midst of tragedy, she went from being merely a believer in God to having an intimate and vibrant relationship with Him.
I trust her story will bless and inspire you as it does me!

Pornography isn't just a "man problem" and we need to be speaking on the issue! Research suggests that 13% of female practicing Christians aged 13-24 use porn at least once per month. And that's just the ones who admit to it.
Sexual sin, as well as sexual struggles, especially in marriage amongst Christians, are too often dealt with in secrecy due to guilt or shame. This, ironically, leads to more guilt and shame.
Let this be an open door for you to reach out with any struggles you may be having with a trusted source and find your way to healing, forgiveness and freedom.

What do you see when you look in the mirror? What are the voices that you hear? How do you define beauty and where did you get that definition from?
Let's examine and re-evaluate the definition of beauty and look through God's lens rather than the world's.

Is there a difference between secular work and spiritual? How does God view what we do? There are many tasks that beckon us on a daily basis that are rather monotonous and certainly don't feel very spiritual but, still, they must be done. So how does it all fit together? How do we do both?

Do you find yourself a little bit stuck? Not moving forward? Just kind of same ol', same ol'? Or worse, you're feeling like the victim of your circumstances?
We don't have to stay in that place. Even when we go through difficult seasons, taking tiny action, little by little, we can move forward.
I hope this gives you a gentle push forward to get you just that much closer to where you want to be.

Who do you think you are? No, really.
The world tells us everyday what we should think about ourselves and who we are but does it align with what God says about us?
Don't trade a cheap philosophy for the amazing truth!
