Farewell 06: A Good Gospel Goodbye

Farewell
Written By Risen Motherhood

Well, friends, is our final show of the Risen Motherhood Podcast. After 260+ episodes and nearly 10 years of ministry, it’s hard to find the words for this bittersweet gospel goodbye. And yet, we know that the Lord will continue to work in and through his people—what a gift that he never changes! In this final episode, Emily and Laura share their hope and prayer for the R|M community. From a few practical tips for living out a risen motherhood to their prayer for you as we part ways, we hope this show points you to the God who is faithful to complete the good work he began in you, dear mom—he will surely do it.

Need encouragement that what you’re doing matters?

Do you find yourself wondering what all the work of motherhood is for? Or living for naptime, family vacations, or becoming an empty-nester? As moms, it can be easy to wish away one season for another, but God has given and ordained every moment in motherhood for your good and his glory. If you need the reminder that the work you’re doing is important and valuable, then A Million Tiny Moments: Reflections to Refresh a Mom’s Spirit was written just for you.

Available now, this book operates like a reference book with short, instant encouragement for every season.

R|M Apply Questions:

  • Consider journaling through this question: what does living a risen motherhood look like for you? Spend some time in prayer that the Lord will show you what faithfulness looks like in your specific season and life circumstances.

  • In the show, Emily and Laura share the importance of plugging into your local church with women who know your specific circumstances. Write down names of 1 -3 moms from your church who might be able to encourage you in your day-to-day motherhood and make a plan to reach out to them.

  • What are 2-3 practical ways you can bring God’s Word front and center, even on busy days? This might look like turning on the audio Bible while washing dishes, or swapping some scrolling time on social media for reading Scripture on your phone. Keep this list in the Notes app on your phone or on a sticky note where you’ll see it often!

  • Read 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24. In the busyness of motherhood, do you trust that God is sanctifying you? Pray that the Spirit will open your eyes to the ways God is working in your heart, life, and family.
