this is a great podcast for all moms. Heidi and Melanie do such a great job at reaching into the depths of mom hearts. They dont tell you what to do but show you through God's word what has happened in their life and how they have used their mistakes and opportunities as guidance in bringing up children. They also include stuff that tear at us mom's that doesn't matter how old our children are. definitely listening and following each episode of this podcast

Must listen for mom's of all stages

Great parenting podcast! Heidi and Melanie have clearly spent time in the parenting trenches and have come out on the other side with biblical wisdom to share. As a mom of elementary kids and teens, I found so much encouragement and wisdom in each episode that applies to every parenting stage.

I love that the episodes are short enough to listen to while I unload the dishwasher or fold a load of laundry- a great way to get a boost or biblical encouragement throughout my day. Looking forward to more episodes!
