“Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can urge the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self -controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.
”
The purpose
As moms we are super busy! We are pulled in many different directions at the same time in all the while, wondering how we will survive. Our kids are our life. We live and breathe for them. But have we truly invested in our children? Have we gone to the Truth source to gain knowledge on what our children truly need? Our children deserve to be raised by mothers who equip themselves with God’s Word as their guide. Moms Like Christ is ready to guide you through God’s Word to discover His Truths for your daily life decisions as wives and mothers. Set up to be completed with other Christian moms, Moms Like Christ, will lead your group through discussions about 14 attributes of a Christian mom documented by scripture. You will parallel these attributes with women from the bible whose lives can give us guidance on righteous living. Ladies, God’s Word never returns void. As you meet together you will draw closer to Him, to one another, and you will become more confident in fulfilling your God given gift: motherhood.
“Start children off in the way he should go, and even when they are old they will not depart from it.”
About the author
Inspired to write my testimony at age 40, I discovered God among the mess I called my life. At age 20 I married the love of my life, only to discover the hardships of keeping our marriage God-centered. At age 24 I experienced my first heart wrenching miscarriage which led me towards the road of depression. As my life continued it's up and down journey, I found myself in a very dark place. All the while God was standing by ready and waiting for me to surrender my will to His. During this dark season of my life I became a mother to three children, carried a full-time middle school teaching job, and worked in various ministries. My life was a constant busy schedule that never seemed to decline in activities. With the help of my loving husband and close Christian friends, I learned to rely on God as my strength. God surrounded me with many different Christian woman mentors; women to help me through when I was unsure of what, where, or how to make it. As I wrote my life story, God revealed to me 14 attributes of a Christian mom. With a deep love for God’s Word, I found 14 women from the Bible that paralleled these attributes. From my written testimony and Gods Word I wrote Moms Like Christ. ! wanted to create an environment where older women could mentor the younger women (Titus 2:3-5). Together as sisters in Christ, women could study scripture, discuss the struggles of being a wife and mom, and develop relationships that would last a lifetime in the process. I am a farmer’s wife of 23 years, mother of 3 amazing children, taught school for 20 years, and continue to mentor women in and out of my home as God leads.
