EP 110 PT 2: How’s That Workin for Ya?
Remember Dr. Phil saying to someone stuck in a bad situation and continuing to make the same bad choices, “How’s that workin for ya?” The question makes you stop and think, “Is this working?” And then, if it’s not, why in the world do you keep doing it? But WE DO! And that’s the definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. In this two part episode, we’re talking about what IS actually working for us, what ISN’T and what we can do about it. TRUTH:...

EP 107: Are we cool with the Easter Bunny?
We’re tackling the strange celebration of a bunny who leaves eggs, why we call it Easter and how we can use all of this to point to Jesus. For Christians, the big deal about Easter is the Resurrection. We can follow the example of Christians of old to take secular holidays and use them to share Christ. We don’t have to be afraid of the bunny because yall, Jesus loves every BUNNY. SPONSORS: Dr. T Acupuncture and Chiropractic Rockwall Ford Support Us: Monthly Donation | One-Time Donation Connect...

EP 103:Listen, Sis: You don’t have to
You don’t have to have a Stanley cup. You don’t have to look at the scale in the doctor’s office. You don’t have to pack your kids lunches, cut the sandwiches into shapes and leave a note every day. There are SO MANY things we’ve adopted as things we have to buy, do or be because someone else said or modeled that for us. The freeing truth is, we don’t answer to anyone but our Father in heaven. When we look to Him, we find the true *musts* of lie; what is truly non-negotiable. The rest of it may ...

EP 102:Listen, Sis: It may be time for a phone break
I (Rebecca) put down my phone for a week and am thrilled to share what I learned and experienced. As I am typing these show notes, my phone just notified me that my screen time was down 86% last week. Was it easy? No. Was it worth it? Yes! Our phones constantly distract us as we subconsciously convince ourselves that we need them more than anything else. We literally can’t leave home without them. We also spend our precious time checking social media and appeasing our boredom with apps and game...

EP 101:Listen, Sis with Jenny Worsham
The fabulous Jenny Worsham joins us in this episode as we talk all about the podcast live and our favorite table at the event; the “Come alone? Sit with me” table. That’s what we’re all about here at Gather Moms; making space for each other. Momming can be LONELY. If you feel alone, you’re not alone. We have to do the work to reach out to make friends and an easy way to connect to moms is with our Gather Moms Groups. Jenny tells us all about groups and how you can get connected. She also mentio...

EP 99: Listen, Sis: What’s Broken Can Be Beautiful
We’re all operating out of places of brokenness. Brokenness, in God’s eyes, is being so crushed by the sin and darkness of the world that we recognize there is no place to turn but to God. I think it’s important for us to recognize this because it affects the way we listen and receive messages from others. If we’re all broken by sin, then I can either turn in desperation to God or turn in search of worldly fixes. Jeremiah 2:13 compares this search to broken cisterns that hold no water. A cister...

EP 98: Listen, Sis: Don’t Be a Punk to Yourself
Did you know that you talk to yourself more than anyone else? What are you saying to you? So many of us are talking to ourselves like we would never talk to someone that we love. We’re being punks to ourselves, bullies even, and it has to stop. We have to pay attention to what we’re saying to ourselves and speak true things instead of lies. TRUTH: Psalm 13:1-6 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 Philippians 4:8-9 YOUR CHALLENGE: Stop being a punk to yourself. Pay attention to what you are saying to you. ...

EP 97: Listen, Sis Season Launch
NEW SEASON! Welcome to a new season of the Gather Moms Podcast that we’re calling ‘Listen Sis’. We’re not just mom friends, we are sisters in Christ. Our desire for all the people in our house to listen to our voice also means we need to be aware of what messages are filling our ears. We are all listening to something; some messages are good but most distract us from what really matters. God has great plans for us this year. He wants us to seek him with our whole hearts. Lean in, MAMAS, because ...
