gospel Mom: How to make Biblical Decisions and Discover the Mom God Created You to Be

ORDER NOW!

All of us want to be called “good moms,” but what exactly that is feels like a moving target. Each decision in motherhood seems to present a thousand overwhelming options, or our circumstances suddenly change and we can’t keep up with “the plan,” or we see another mom making different choices and begin to doubt our own.

But when we can plant our feet firmly in the hope of the gospel, we find the freedom to be the unique mom God created each of us to be. Suddenly, the pressure to fit the mold doesn’t carry as much weight—and that’s where we find freedom.

We need more than just to know what to do. We need to know who to be.

Join Risen Motherhood cofounders Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler to explore what it truly means to be a gospel mom—a woman who is renewed by Christ’s righteousness, knows her mission and purpose, and lives free from guilt and unhealthy comparison. 

Making decisions in motherhood is hard. But not impossible.

  • Longs to understand what kind of mom God wants her to be 
  • Feels confused about her circumstances and wants to be content with the motherhood God gave her
  • Wants a tested method for applying the gospel to every situation
  • Needs direction and wisdom from Scripture about a big decision she's facing in motherhood
  • Worries about making different decisions than her friends, the influencers she follows, or even her own mom
  • Feels like a “bad mom” and needs hope and guidance
  • Desires to remove the fangs of fear from the threat of "doing the wrong thing" as a Christian mom

pick it up for you or a mom pal

Wondering if "Gospel Mom" is for you? Here's a checklist, friend.

A Gospel Mom isn’t loyal to a modern lifestyle or method, subculture, or stereotype. She doesn’t just blindly copy her mom or her friends at church or her favorite influencer. She’s loyal to the King of Kings and submits to his leading in all things.
