Episode description
Got a question about today’s episode or something else you’d like to hear us talk about on the show? Let us know!
It’s difficult to accept the fact that we can’t protect our children from all suffering, but no matter what, we can trust that God has a plan. In this episode, we share a Mother’s Day talk Dot gave, where she shares the lessons she learned from reading about Moses’ mother. Dot explains how we can do our best to raise our children well, and then trust God to do what only He can. Grab your Bible and a journal and listen along!
