Parenting often feels like a journey of wondering whether we’re getting it right—and it can be easy to tie our worth to the outcome of our children’s lives and choices.In this episode, Jeannie Cunnion joins the conversation to reflect on the highs, challenges, and lessons learned through years of motherhood. Together, we talk about what really matters in parenting, how to release the pressure of trying to control outcomes, and why joy grows when we place our trust in God instead of our performance.The conversation also explores the role of the Holy Spirit in parenting and the reminder that we were never meant to do this alone. God is at work in our homes in ways we cannot manufacture on our own.This episode is a meaningful encouragement for moms who want to parent with more grace, freedom, and dependence on God.00:00 The Exhaustion of Motherhood04:10 Navigating Food and Family Life06:04 Reflections on Parenting Through the Years12:57 Faithfulness in Motherhood15:48 The Importance of Instilling Faith17:03 Cultivating Joy in Parenting18:56 Relying on the Holy Spirit24:29 The Power of Scripture in Family Life30:03 Transformative Parenting Practices33:32 Trusting God with Our ChildrenConnect with Pardon The Mess:Christian ParentingPardon The Mess Courtney DeFeoResources from today’s show:Connect with JeannieCloser to God Don’t Miss Out Mom Set FreeRaising Boys and GirlsABC Scripture CardsI Can Learn The Bible - scripture memory sourceOpen a LearningRX centerMoms, Dads, and Grads Gift GuidePrefer video?
