Everyday Prayers with Million Praying Moms

Weariness tends to resurface over and over again throughout motherhood, and in this season, we want to help you learn to recognize it for what it is, understand why you're feeling it, and identify ways you can be refreshed. And we're not talking about a day at the spa, or a cup of whatever warm drink you prefer...although those things aren't bad. The problem is that they're temporary, and moms today need a permanent source of hope. Thankfully, Brooke McGlothlin and Stacey Thacker offer exactly that in their new book, Unraveled: Hope for Moms at the End of Their Rope. All this season, Brooke, and special guest, Stacey Thacker, will look beyond the surface to what's actually causing our weariness, by exploring three main roots: Root #1: A Misunderstanding of the Role of Motherhood. Root #2: Hiding Behind Pride. Root #3: Choosing Weary over Worship. And finally, the last week of May we'll share a bonus episode where Brooke reads chapter six of Unraveled for you. It's called, "When the Gentle Words Won't Come," and it covers an issue almost ALL moms struggle with from time-to-time—mastering their emotional response toward their children. Tune in now!

Mary DeMuth wasn't raised in the church, so when she came to know Jesus, she had no idea what prayer even was. A survivor of sexual abuse, abandonment, and a challenging church plant, Mary has a depth of experience and wisdom that makes me want to listen, especially to what she has to say about prayer. In today's episode, Mary talks about how God welcomes our words, because He welcomes us, and teaches us that if we're in a dark place, and don't know what or how to pray, Jesus already knows and is praying for us.  All this season, I'm interviewing REAL moms, with REAL challenges, who have overcome to have REAL, vibrant prayer lives. Their stories are, well, real, and I've picked 6 of them to share with you over the next six weeks. If you like them, follow MPM on IG at MPM and listen to them all. The ones I've chosen for this season are intended to give you a diversity of personal story, and my hope is that you'll hear your story reflected in one of theirs. Maybe in all of them.

And not necessarily the way you might think.  Hannah Anderson is a fellow Appalachian Writer, mom, wife, and author of several books. We spent time together many years ago inside of a writers critique group that was deeply meaningful and useful for both of us. I love to listen to her speak about the rhythms, and stories, and deep faith of this beautiful area I call home. In this interview she talks about growing up a homesteader and how the need to pray for something as simple as rain set the tone for her entire prayer life, helping her realize that what seems out of our control, is not out of God's control.  All this season, I'm interviewing REAL moms, with REAL challenges, who have overcome to have REAL, vibrant prayer lives. Their stories are, well, real, and I've picked 6 of them to share with you over the next six weeks. If you like them, follow MPM on IG at MPM and listen to them all.

Welcome to a new season of the Million Praying Moms Podcast! For the next six weeks, we'll be getting real about prayer.  I'm interviewing six different moms—REAL moms, with REAL challenges—who have overcome to have REAL, vibrant prayer lives. The purpose in these interviews is to give you a diverse group of women—from various walks of life, and different backgrounds—whose stories you might find your own in, and be encouraged by the way God used their challenges, not to keep them from prayer, but to help them to go deeper in prayer.  Make plans to join us!  SHOW NOTES: www.millionprayingmoms.com/s11-e1-new-season-real-moms-real-challenges-real-prayer MILLION PRAYING MOMS ON INSTAGRAM: @millionprayingmoms MILLION PRAYING MOMS ON FACEBOOK: @millionprayingmoms PRAYING MOM BOOK: https://www.millionprayingmoms.com/the-book/ SUBSCRIBE TO THE MPM PODCAST EMAIL LIST and get a free copy of Brooke's How to Pray God's Word for Your Children eBook: bit.ly/how-2-pray Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
