Episode 3: Permission to Answer Multiple Callings in Motherhood

Most moms recognize that motherhood is truly one of the greatest callings they have ever received. But many women also feel God calling them to do other things alongside their motherhood. Sorting out these multiple callings in motherhood can sometimes be a challenge. When mothers feel God calling them to serve the church in a meaningful way alongside their motherhood, it becomes a dance to figure out how to make the other things they feel called to fit into motherhood without taking away from it.

Today, Laura Fanucci and I discuss exactly that! How can mothers really answer multiple callings without distracting from their motherhood? How are we to know what God is actually calling us to? And, how do we interpret the challenges we face when we hit roadblocks on the path of pursuing what we feel God is calling us to do?

It’s such a great conversation! You are going to love it.
