At Risen Motherhood, We Believe the Gospel Changes Everything.
In a world full of five-step lists and silver-bullet solutions, moms feel pressure to do it all. But the gospel gives us a better way, lifting our burdens and giving us hope. Join us as we learn to live in light of redemption.
New Here? Here's What You'll Find at Risen Motherhood.
Our Mission
If you hang around here long, you'll see the tagline “gospel hope for moms”—which is exactly what we’re all about. The gospel is the good news of Jesus Christ. We use the mnemonic device “Creation, Fall, Redemption, Consummation” to help us remember the message and meaning of the gospel. As you interact with our ministry, you’ll get to know these terms and how they transform your motherhood.
While the gospel has implications for current events and personal choices, our focus isn’t a specific experience of motherhood, a facet of culture, or the news of the week. Instead, we aim to encourage, equip, and challenge moms all over the world to grasp overarching, timeless, transcultural biblical principles, rooted in the good news of Jesus Christ.
As a parachurch organization, we come alongside the church (global and local) in its mission. We never intend to serve as a replacement for the local church or genuine, Christ-centered friendships with the people God has placed around you.
The Risen Motherhood Podcast
The Risen Motherhood podcast follows a mini-series format, where new episodes on a specific topic are released on Wednesdays throughout each series window. It's here that hosts and co-founders Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler discuss relevant topics to everyday motherhood, through the lens of the gospel. From potty training and cooking dinner to social media and work, Emily and Laura touch on a wide variety of topics in a relatable way.
Articles & Think-Pieces
Each week, we create supplemental content with real-life encouragement and practical application that all moms can relate to. Written by moms, for moms, our site features articles from women around the world, sharing what they're learning about the gospel and motherhood
The Risen Motherhood Book
The Risen Motherhood book is a great way to learn the basics of the gospel, the purpose of motherhood, and how to "do what we do." Written by our co-founders Emily and Laura, it will walk you through how they apply the gospel to sixteen common topics moms face in motherhood. It makes a great gift—for yourself or a mom pal. The book comes in three formats: audiobook, ebook, or hardback, and it’s been translated into Spanish, Portuguese, and Chinese.

We've developed free tools and resources to train you in a way of studying the Bible that puts God first, which we call The Abide Method. Visit the page to find beautifully and thoughtfully designed Bible study worksheets, how-tos, and printables for prayer and Scripture memory, all free for your personal use.

For Every Mom
We say it at the beginning of every podcast episode: Motherhood is hard. We know that every mom has different struggles and challenges, and some of you are in significantly hard seasons.
Because of Christ, God meets you exactly where you are. There is hope for you in the gospel. But we also want you to know that there is zero shame in seeking real, tangible help as you walk through certain seasons. That’s why we’ve created a series of resources to encourage and guide you in various seasons of motherhood, with topics such as suffering, new motherhood, burnout, depression, anxiety, overwhelm, self-care, and more.
