Momming With Jesus

Ever prayed, “God, help me grow,” and then immediately thought, “Okay, but does it have to feel like THIS?” 😂 Girl, same.
In this episode of Momming with Jesus, we’re talking about the pressure, the pruning, and those stretching seasons that make you want to take a U-turn. I’m sharing honestly about feeling overwhelmed, learning to stop burying my emotions, and how a counseling session, a good cry, rest, and some time with my kids helped me reset.
Through Scripture and the imagery of pressed olives, pruned branches, and developing pearls, we’ll explore how God can grow something valuable in uncomfortable places. We’ll also talk about why you’re allowed to feel tired, ask for help, and admit something is hard while still trusting Him.
If life has been feeling like a lot lately, this one’s for you. God hasn’t abandoned you in the pressing, and there may be more growing in you than you can see. 💕
Listen, share with a friend, and follow Momming with Jesus for more biblical encouragement through everyday life.

Every one of us has a race God has called us to run—but let’s be real: the calling isn’t always glamorous, and it definitely isn’t always easy! In this episode, Lauren shares what God has been teaching her through a personal running challenge about capacity, perseverance, purpose, and pushing past the limits we place on ourselves.
What if you’re more capable than you realize? What if the moment you feel like stopping is the very moment your endurance has a chance to grow? And what if your decision to keep running is inspiring your children, family, friends, and people you may not even know are watching?
It’s time to strip off the fear, shame, doubt, burnout, and every lie trying to convince you to quit. Focus on your next step, keep your eyes on Jesus, and press on toward everything God has placed before you. You’ve got more in you, girl—so run your race! 💜
“Let us run with endurance the race God has set before us.” —Hebrews 12:1 NLT

We’re wrapping up the Ask Anything Q&A series with Part 4 💜
In this episode of the Momming with Jesus Podcast, we’re talking about the real-life questions that don’t always have quick or easy answers. How do you keep trusting God when you’ve prayed and nothing seems to change? How do you recognize and prevent burnout? How do you actually study the Bible? What Scriptures can you pray over yourself and your children in hard seasons? And how do you love someone who is struggling deeply when you feel like nothing you say is helping?
I’m also sharing more of my personal story—how my relationship with Jesus began, where my joy comes from, lessons I’m learning about slowing down and being present, and even a few lighter questions about life outside of ministry. We’re also touching on discernment and Halloween as we close out the series.
My prayer through this entire series has been that we would become women who aren’t afraid to ask the hard questions, search Scripture, seek God wholeheartedly, and trust Him even when we don’t have all the answers. Grab your Bible, get comfortable, and let’s talk. 💜

We’re back for Part 3 of ASK ANYTHING, and y’all did NOT hold back with these questions. 😂💗
In this episode of Momming with Jesus, we’re having some honest conversations about the things many of us wrestle with but don’t always know who to ask. How do you know when it’s time to wait, let go, or make a move? Is therapy okay for Christians? What do you do when you’ve been hurt by the church? How do you trust people again after being hurt? How do you handle jealousy and protect trust in your marriage? Can you be baptized more than once? And yep… we’re even getting into questions about the rapture. 👀
There’s a little bit of everything in this one—mental health, relationships, church hurt, friendships, family, faith, and some questions we definitely had to pull the Bible out for. 😂📖
Grab your coffee and come hang out with us. No perfect answers, no pretending—just real conversations, personal experiences, and biblical truth for real life. 💗

We’re back for Part 2, and the questions just keep getting better! 👀 In this episode of Momming with Jesus, we continue answering the real, honest, funny, personal, and sometimes uncomfortable questions women are actually asking.
We’re talking about the things that don’t always make it into Sunday conversations—the things we wrestle with privately, wonder about spiritually, and sometimes just need another woman to say, “Girl, let’s talk about it.” 😂
As always, we’re keeping it honest, sharing personal experiences, and bringing it all back to biblical truth and what God’s Word has to say. 📖
There are still SO many questions left, so this conversation isn’t over yet!
Grab your coffee, get comfortable, and join us for ASK ANYTHING: Part 2. 💗🎙️
Real questions. Biblical truth. Honest conversations. Nothing off the table.
