SPEAKING TOPICS FOR
PARENTING EVENTS / HOMESCHOOL CONVENTIONS / MOMS' GROUPS
THE MISSIONAL MOM: LIVING THE GOOD LIFE!
Cloistered within our churches and homes, we have denied our children the adventure of missional living because we’ve kept them safe. Safety, however, is no substitute for strength. Dynamic, on the edge, radical Christian living would be so appealing to our kids, but they have to first see it in us. As mothers, we have a unique opportunity to show our kids the authenticity of the Christian life and the reality of a walk with Christ on a daily basis. Can everything we do come to rest on a point of focus that consistently calls us to connect others to Him? Don’t miss the mission!
