Hey friends, Mother’s Day is right around the corner and today’s conversation with Katie Faris is an important conversation about the hardships, sorrows, and grief that can come with motherhood.
Katie Faris is an author, married to a pastor, and mother to five children. Katie lives with her family in New Jersey. Her most recent book, God Is Still Good: Gospel Hope and Comfort for the Unexpected Sorrows of Motherhood acknowledges that while there is so much joy and love that comes with motherhood, there are also challenges that can bring pain and heartbreak. Katie encourages mothers to embrace the grief that comes from motherhood and experience God’s comfort as you put your hope in Christ during the unexpected trials of parenting. God is Still Good offers a biblical context for suffering and hope, addresses common questions, and addresses temptations and lies that mothers likely face.
Today Katie reminded me that God is still good even when life feels hard. With today’s conversation, I hope you know that there is hope and you are not alone. Share this episode with a mother that needs to hear that today!
