Losing a baby to miscarriage or later in pregnancy is heartbreaking, especially when you are struggling with infertility. Imagine experiencing that type of loss multiple times. My guest and friend, Shawna Beucler shares the story behind her two healthy sons and the many babies she can’t wait to see again in heaven.
If you’re walking through the journey of infertility or have a friend who is, Shawna shares so beautifully why you shouldn’t walk alone in these places of pain and the power of friends lifting you up in prayer every day.
We would not have gone through and survived that time in our life had we not had people praying for us around the clock. Because sometimes the anger and the heartbreak when your heart meets tragedy... there is no prayer you can form. I needed a break from the Lord and I had other people holding that connection for me.

Powerhouse Christine Caine shares how she let go of fear and found faith for when the unexpected happened. Lots of truth and encouragement here for anyone who has encountered fear in parenting, a medical diagnosis and rejection in friendships... so all of us!
Jesus never said we’re not going to have trials. He said when trials come, not if, but when. I think sometimes as believers we forget that, but we have a grace within it. I think part of our testimony to a lost and broken world is the way we go through it.

- Christine’s reaction to her cancer diagnosis
- Jesus is the name above all other names, including cancer
- Having a “faith cocoon” of friends to encourage you in the face of fear
- Enduring suffering as Christians
- Giving in to the pain and fear and suffering is not the answer
- We serve a God who is bigger!
- Godly motherhood in this generation is harder than it’s ever been

- We’re called to train our children up and not restrain their giftings

In her new book, New York Times bestselling author Lisa Bevere tackles the question, “What is truth?”. It is a defining question in our current age which is ruled by a shifting sea of opinions and a constantly changing culture. But, truth is person, Jesus. And, he is a Rock for his people.
When I began to look at this, I thought, ‘Oh my gosh, they were looking for Christ’. The magnet that would draw, but not be drawn, the one who is light, this whole dynamic of being invincible, that’s what adamant means... invincible... it’s also immovable, constant, that rock who follows us in the wilderness... That word in Hebrew means, ‘an unassailable refuge’. That made me realize that Christ is our unassailable refuge.
Listen as Lisa shares wisdom and encouragement for moms, daughters and followers of Christ everywhere.
What we chat about:- Lisa’s background and testimony of meeting Jesus and her husband
- Parenting, discipline and setting your children up to win
- The power of positive affirmation in strong-willed children
- Explaining the why behind the rules and connecting it to God’s word
- Having grace for the season you are in as a mom
- Prayers for your kids to go beyond where you are in your walk with Christ
- Doing motherhood well is not the same as doing it perfectly
- The meaning of adamant and the background on Lisa’s new book
- Christ is our unassailable refuge, our rock, our adamant
- We can’t love what God loves if we don’t hate what God hates
- The danger of pride and how it separates us from God’s grace
- Jesus is our pattern for how to love
- You will never regret kindness and loving words
