This episode is an encouragement for all mothers in how we can reframe the work that God has called us to.

In every part of life, but especially motherhood, it can be ridiculously easy to slip your identity into how much you serve or into the roles that you fill. Today I am sitting down with my good friend to Sarah, speaker of truth and encourager, to talk about how we can learn to walk in our true identity, in Jesus. We're talking about how she has had her identity completely redefined as she walked through a divorce, life as a single mother, a recovery program and now as she enters into a beautiful marriage.
