(F3) What is Christian forgiveness? The Connection Between Humility, Wisdom, And Admitting When You’re Wrong

Episode 118.5 // Friday Faith Followup
 
One of the hardest things about faith is understanding (and then living out!) Christian forgiveness. It takes so much humility, courage, and godly strength to forgive others! 
 
Apologizing to your husband and your kids is not easy work. It requires you to set aside your pride, admit when you’re wrong, and seek restoration. 
 
None of us can apologize or forgive well if we are not growing in humility. And when our feelings are hurt or we are fuming about something that happened, it takes wisdom to step back and work toward resolution. 
 
These are important topics, and we all need some encouragement in how we handle apologies and forgiveness in our homes. So join me today for a look at how humility, wisdom, and courage play a role in this important aspect of Christian family life.
 
Let’s dive in.
 
hugs & blessings, 
Jess

(F3) Find Encouragement In 3 Biblical Examples Of Jesus Keeping A Positive Attitude In Really Difficult Situations

Episode 117.5 // Friday Faith Follow-up
 
We struggle with our thoughts, emotions, attitudes, and interactions. They aren’t always as positive and godly as we want. 
 
So to get a little perspective, let’s flip open our Bibles and take a look at 3 examples from the life of Jesus. Examples of times when he faced really difficult, painful, emotional situations… and dealt with it in a positive and godly way. 
 
Of course, we’ll never handle things perfectly. Only Jesus was tempted and never sinned! We are tempted and try to sin less and less. As we try to become more and more Christ-like, looking at his example helps us get ideas for how to handle the realities of our lives in more God-honoring ways.

Keeping A Positive Attitude As A (Busy, Tired, Struggling) Christian Mom: 6 Real-Life Tips To Help

Episode 117 // Can you enjoy family life when your attitude is crummy?
 
Nope. Your attitude has everything to do with how your home feels, how you engage with your family, and how you handle frustrating moments of your day.
 
As Christian moms, we need to figure out how to hold onto a positive attitude even when things aren’t going the way we want. And we don’t want a rose-colored-glasses positive attitude, with a fake smile and bitterness in our hearts. No! We need a genuine, biblical, healthy attitude as we go about the good and hard moments of Christian family life.
 
So today, we’re taking a look at 6 real-life tips to help you maintain a biblical perspective, a healthy mindset, and a positive attitude.
 
Let’s dive in.
 
hugs & blessings, 
Jess

(F3) The Daily Habit of Loving God Well… Keep A Right Perspective With This Devotional In Psalm 90

Episode 116.5 // Friday Faith Followup
 
One of your best daily habits as a Christian mom is building a habit of prayer. 
 
Prayer will take you into the Lord’s presence, and invite him to take charge - our Lord who is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-good, and always faithful. 
 
You see, it’s basically impossible to hold onto a positive attitude during hard and frustrating moments of your day… UNLESS you had a right perspective on God. 
 
Who is He? What is his character like? How does He act toward us, and what’s the impact on our daily lives?
 
Well, friend, join me for a devotional today through Moses’ prayer in Psalm 90. As we build a right perspective on God, we’ll find it much easier to hold onto a Christian mindset and positive attitude in our day-to-day family life.
 
hugs & blessings,
Jess

I am loving being back from our podcast hiatus, my friend! It feels good to be behind the mic again and chatting with you about Christian family life. Marriage, motherhood, faith - there are so many important elements of a happy home life!
 
We’re kicking off a mini-series this week, digging into how to be the wise woman of Proverbs 14:1 who builds up her home… and how to avoid being the foolish one who tears it apart with her own hands.
 
But first, sit with me for a bit to hear more about how God used this 10 week hiatus in my life (and in this podcast!) and find some encouragement in his wisdom, his Word, and his faithful love.
 
Let’s dive in.
