Faith in Parents #71 | Gospel hope for everyday moments. A conversation with Risen Motherhood's Laura Wifler

Join Ed, Amy and Risen Motherhood's Laura Wifler as they chat through finding and thriving in gospel moments in the everyday challenges of parenthood. They chat through the highs and lows of parenting expectations and reality with a good angle in on prayer and praying with your kiddos.

People: 

Ed Drew - Director of FIK
Amy Smith - FIK 
Laura Wifler - Author, podcaster, and the executive director of Risen Motherhood.

Quote from Laura:

'Just seeing the different ways that people prayed in scripture... The emotions that are there, the longings that are there, the suffering that is included, the questions that are asked.... Remember that you have 18 years, you don't have to cover all the prayers in one night. Take some time and build that into some routine of things that you discuss and talk about for kids to see a more robust view.'
