How do you feel about Mother's Day?

I have always been part of churches that sought to celebrate mothers. Honoring the women in our midst for the brave and difficult work of mothering is right and beautiful! 

But it’s not that simple. 

Mother’s Day has been a complicated holiday for many women. So much so, that they stay home from church on that day. 

This year, I read a piece by Amy Young at the beginning of our service—words that acknowledged both the joy and the ache this day can carry. It resonated deeply with so many women, I decided to share it on the podcast.

Whether you love Mother’s Day or find it painful (or somewhere in between), I pray you’ll find today’s episode encouraging and insightful.
