On the M is for Mama Podcast, you’ll hear encouragement for all things motherhood, practical helps and systems to help you thrive in your home from day to day, ...
In a world which champions ungodly parenting philosophies, mocks the traditional family unit, and glorifies self over sacrifice, it can feel daunting to swim against the current of culture.
But I have seen (and heard from) so many mamas who are doing just that and making a difference for good in their communities and the world at large.
This episode is “an attagirl” and an encouragement to buck the status quo and value God’s wisdom above man’s.
I am honored to stand with the Mama Bears who fear God not man and are invested in raising their children in the “teaching and admonition of the Lord.”
Keep going. Your work matters, and the Lord is with you every step of the way.

This week, we continue with our chat with my pastor, Rick Witmer (or “Wit”), as he lays out a biblical case for reformed theology.
We also get into some real-world examples that answer the question, “If God is truly sovereign, then why choose to take action at all?”
Come unpack the “mystery box” of God’s sovereign will in conjunction with man’s responsibility to make choices in today’s thought-provoking episode!

If you’ve ever heard of the doctrine of election or the five points of Calvinism, you may feel like you have more questions than answers about what those and many other tenets of Reformed theology mean.
Since it’s Reformation Month—when Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door of a Catholic church—I thought it would be the perfect time to chat all things Reformed with my pastor, Rick Witmer, whom I call “Wit.”
In this episode, he’s giving us background and answering some of your most pressing questions that you always submit on WWKW anytime I talk about attending a reformed church.
I am so grateful for Wit’s wisdom, clear articulation, knowledge of church history, biblical prowess, and kindness.
I know, no matter what your theological background, you’ll enjoy the conversational way he breaks down the essential beliefs of the Reformed movement with clarity and compassion.
Stay tuned for Part 2 next week!

Ep. 80: Nobody is Killing It All the Time (Priorities and Preparation for Seasons of Limited Capacity)
It’s easy to see someone doing well in an area (or multiple areas) and assume they’re killing it in every other arena as well.
The truth is, while we strive for the balance of doing all things excellently to the glory of God, we often found our capacities particularly limited during certain seasons and generally limited all the time (bc no one is good at everything).
Whether we are unusually busy (where I find myself right now), postpartum, solo-parenting, or something else altogether, we find ourselves needing to focus on the main things while being forced to let other areas go for a time.
When we are careful to prioritize the needful things and prepare our hearts with reasonable expectations, we can still thrive through seasons of limited capacity while recognizing everyone will find themselves in a similar boat at some point—and the Lord can still use us all!
