“Only the redeeming, all-powerful, transforming grace of God can raise our sin-besotted heart from the dead, give us eternal life, and set our gaze on Jesus, our blessed hope.”

“The greatest obstruction to our joy in God is not a lack of time.”

“Mothering or nurturing is not just a calling for women who have biological or adopted children. Mothering is a calling for all women. Every Christian woman is called to the spiritual motherhood of making disciples of all nations.”

“I need God’s grace and something baked with peanut butter and chocolate.”

“If we want to give grace to our children, then first we must be willing to receive it ourselves from God.”

“Through the grace shown to us in the gospel, there is something distinctly Christlike about a mother's love for her child.”

“Because of the gospel -- the news about what Jesus did on the cross to save sinners -- mothers who make Christ their treasure can rejoice in their work as God works in them.”

“What would our hospitality look like if we believed that Jesus’s death on the cross was the measure of God’s compassion for someone?”

“God has called us to something vastly bigger than our happiness or that of our children.”
