Moms in the Bible–Leah and Rachel part 2
When God gave the Israelites the ten commandments, he declared, “I am the Lord your God.” (Gen. 20:3) Then he instructed that they should have no other gods before him. This includes our husbands and our children.
Moms in the Bible–Rebekah, part 2
An ordinary day, an unexpected visitor, a decision to be made. Both Rebekah and Mary experienced those things, hundreds of years apart. Their choices teach all of us how to respond when God calls us.
Moms in the Bible–Hagar, part 2
Have you ever felt that way? Hearing the voice of your child and seeing their anguish, yet feeling so completely unable to help?

Moms in the Bible–The Syrophoenician Woman

Moms in the Bible–Mary, part 2
In the weeks leading up to Good Friday and Easter, it is right that we begin to prepare our hearts in remembrance of the incredible acts of love, mercy and power that Jesus did in those three days. In this episode, as part of our Moms in the Bible series, we are going to look at those three days through the eyes of Mary, Jesus’ mother.
Moms in the Bible–The Shunammite Woman
What I see in the Shunammite’s story, and in scripture, is that hospitality is as much a heart attitude as an action.
