A mother wears a lot of hats. She’s the family grocer, cook, housekeeper, nurse, teacher, and so on.  She is also the family spiritual director and interceder for her family. Mother and author Rachel Jankovic tells how she finds snatches of time during the daily rush of life to offer up prayers for her children.  She reminds moms that it’s okay to pray while cooking or rocking or other chores, and reminds them not to feel guilty if they can’t find time for the perfect devotional time or Bible reading.

So, you wanted to be a Mommy. Now that you’re there, is it all you expected? Author Rachel Jankovic, a mother of six, reminds listeners that motherhood is largely sacrificial, a daily laying down of your life that mysteriously fills you the more you give out. Rachel talks about her own leap into motherhood early in her marriage and the challenges and blessings motherhood ushers in.  Rachel encourages moms who are trying to figure out who they are just to look at “their people” – the husband and children looking back at her that give her purpose and meaning.

Do you and your spouse have different romantic needs? Consider then, that your spouse’s differences, as odd as they may seem, may be God’s gift to you. Dennis and Barbara Rainey talk about the differences between men and women in the romance department. While women spell romance r-e-l-a-t-i-o-n-s-h-i-p, men most often spell it s-e-x.  The Rainey’s encourage husbands and wives to enroll in a lifelong “Romantic Language School,” and become more fluent in their spouse’s unique language of love.
