Advancing God's Kingdom in the Family System
Hooray! We are celebrating Christian Mommas’ 4th anniversary today! Wow! We started off as a personal blog in 2018 and transitioned to a community blog the same year. We added a mentorship program and an app this year. We have partnered with other ministries to advance God’s kingdom in the family system. We will spend […]
In 2020, God opened up a door of partnership with YouVersion, the Bible App. Since then, I have made it a goal to write one or two devotionals/reading plans monthly. Other members of the Christian Mommas team have also freely contributed devotionals. Together, we have written 49 devotionals/reading plans to encourage our brothers and sisters […]
Happy Independence Day, America! I love this great nation. Despite her imperfections, the United States is a symbol of hope and freedom due to her Judeo-Christian-values informed constitution. Mommas, let’s raise children who love their country of residence. That’s an important way to lay a foundation for them to prosper and have peace where they […]
Each summer brings opportunities for social gatherings, extended travels, and moments of reprieve and relaxation. Summer is one of my favorite seasons of the year. Growing up as a “Cali Girl,” there was never an absence of things to do and places to go, especially in the summertime. Although summer as a child looks very […]
Today, the United States Supreme Court reversed a law that resulted in the murder of millions of innocent babies for 50 years. I see the enemy in anguish as more women will no longer deal with the guilt and anguish of abortion, and children who will terrorize the enemy’s kingdom will live to accomplish their […]
Paternal Postpartum Depression (PPD) is estimated to affect one in ten men. It is predominantly caused by stress, and the risk for paternal postpartum depression doubles when the child’s mother develops a perinatal mood and anxiety disorder. I believe it is crucial to address PPD in the discourse about supporting fathers because Paternal Postpartum Depression […]
Today we celebrate fathers around the world, and I want to encourage every Christian Momma to continue being a blessing in your homes as you raise godly children with your spouse. Fathers have a huge responsibility to lead, provide and protect as they display the character and nature of our Lord. And we likewise have […]
In honor of fathers, I am sharing three practices that can strengthen the father-child relationship. Be blessed as you read! Connection with Positive Role Models Studies show that fathers experience hormonal and psychological changes when transitioning to fatherhood. The physiological and psychological changes fathers experience often enhance their capacity to nurture their children. The concept […]
On June 30th, 2022, I read about the confusion, pain, and isolation Christian families face when a child COMES OUT. That day, I realized Christian families desperately need more education on LGBTQ issues. I wrote a post about creating a safe haven. However, my post was limited in its scope. Tonight, Sara Hall will offer […]
A short clip from Tuesday’s event. I am already practicing! Sara taught us how to teach our children to say “no” and accept “no”, respect themselves and others, and deal with sexual temptations. We invite you to create time on Tuesday, June 14th, to learn more about talking to children in your family or circle […]
Yesterday, we celebrated my first little one’s birthday with extravagant love. Seeing him smile as he played with his gifts and best friend and beheld his little cake made my heart glad. God also delights in seeing us happy when we receive the material gifts He provides (Psalm 35:27). The little one’s birth has been […]
The story of Noah is one of my first little one’s favorite Bible stories. Last year, I asked him, “Can you tell me about the rainbow?” He said, “It rained for forty days and forty nights. There was a storm. The boat on top of a mountain. A rainbow appeared in the sky. It was […]
Today, we remember those who paid the ultimate price for the freedom we enjoy in the United States of America, the land of the free and the home of the brave. America shall win the war. Therefore, I will work. I will save. I will sacrifice. I will endure. I will fight cheerfully and do […]
Reflecting on the role music plays in mental health, I remembered the passage in scripture that talks about David playing music for Saul to calm down. In 1 Samuel 16, King Saul went through a tough time because an evil spirit would torment and terrify him. His advisers advised him to look for a skillful […]
Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord. 2 Peter 1:2 (KJV) We grow in the knowledge of God, and Jesus our Lord through the Word. As we study and meditate on the Word, we see God’s will and the Holy Spirit empowers us to practice […]
We are living in a time of global chaos. Bible-believing Christians should not panic; instead, we should focus on cultivating inner peace and giving peace (2 Peter 1:2; Matthew 10:13). According to the Cambridge Dictionary, cultivating means nurturing, developing, and improving something. This blog series will help you nurture and multiply your peace and become […]
The Children of Israel murmured, turned their backs on God, entered into captivity (mental and physical), and were destroyed because they forgot God. They forgot God’s Word, God as their provider, and forgot God after they entered their promised land. See Judges 8:28-35; Hosea 4:6; Numbers 14:20-45; 1 Corinthians 10:10 We will experience unnecessary challenges […]
In 2021, Our Given Purpose: Bible Study and Daily Devotional extended Christian Mommas a collaboration opportunity. The opportunity was taken with delight to continue advancing God’s kingdom through written words. Collaborating with fellow believers often provides the encouragement we all need to keep walking in our God-given purpose. Here is this month’s contribution. Righteousness exalteth […]
Here I am again addressing a major thorn in my flesh, impostor syndrome. Three master’s degrees and a Ph.D., but I have found myself feeling and thinking I have nothing to offer. I am constantly resisting the enemy’s lies. Also, focusing on what I lack is a major snare. I must live conscious of my […]

Trust in and rely confidently on the LORD with all your heart. And do not rely on your own insight or understanding.

Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD [with reverent awe and obedience] and turn […]
