Purposed Parent Connected Child Podcast Episode 134 - Change and Rest

Welcome to the Purposed Parent/Connected Child podcast – Episode 134 – Change and Rest
Thank you for sharing your day with me. I pray this podcast gives you the awareness and tools you need to STOP being a GOOD mom and BECOME the GODLY mom God entrusts you to be. Then you will be the SET-APART woman PURPOSELY raising children to chase CHRIST over culture.
Before we start today’s episode, I want to invite you to work with me. If you’re feeling overwhelm instead of overjoy, or you simply feel you don’t know how to do the things you think will help your kids know Christ, send me a message at info@terrihitt.com. There is a way to alleviate frustration or fear and find freedom as a godly mom. No matter the age of your kids, from infant to adult, your relationship can improve and you can find greater connection with Jesus that will affect theirs into eternity. Send me a message today for info about how easy it is to work together and begin experiencing change with my summer special for only $297. Don’t wait. As a bonus, I’m offering the first five women accepted into the program a one-on-one session plus four weeks of individualized group coaching.
Over the last several months I’ve been experiencing health issues. In fact, since September of 2024, I’ve been sick more than well. But one thing hasn’t changed. The presence of Christ and the power He works through me. That same power works within you when you belong to Jesus.
Everything experienced in this temporary world should bring us nearer to Him. Praise God that when we are His, we can live with the assurance that He is present, and that all things work together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.
Through this time I have many God stories, glimpse of hope and assurance that indeed God is with me. He carries me and He carries you. Despite what feelings or thoughts tend to make us believe. We can rest in His truths. I’m sure some of my stories will make their way into future episodes.
God has been busy. He’s working new projects and giving me changes to make for Him. Such as changes to this podcast. In the near future, you’ll notice Purposed Parent Connected Child changing to the Godly Motherhood Podcast with a tagline of Chasing Christ Over Culture. It has taken me MONTHS of prayer to discern whether I was hearing God correctly. Now it’s time to move forward in obedience.
Future episodes will focus on biblical truths and encouragement for moms, spiritual and emotional training for mothers and children, and Christian parenting. We’ll discover together how to become godly moms who purposely chase Christ over culture with our children.
If you’re a mom, you’ve been entrusted with great treasure. The Great I Am, the God of the Universe designed your children with extreme care and great purpose and meant for them to be discipled by you. Join with me to discover ways to be equipped to please God as we travel through life, preparing for eternity.
As for now, I plan to take some time off for summer. I’m in the final phase of book edits on “The Good Mom Trap: Break the Lie That Good Parenting Creates Godly Kids.” It’s been a beautiful journey I’ll probably share with a guest on the podcast sometime in the future. In fact, I’ve got more guests to be introduced to you after the podcast resumes. In the meantime, I plan to make the name change this summer. So when you return to listen, it will be with the new name, but same photo in a slightly different form.
As long as you subscribe, you’ll know when new episodes are released. In the meantime, remember that there are MANY episodes already recorded and available to hear, as well as episodes from my former podcast, Live With Eternal Perspective. My prayer is that you enjoy your summer with family and I hope you’re here for the newly named podcast before fall arrives.
Dear Heavenly Father, Your love is such a gift. Thank you for Your grace, mercy, and lovingkindness. The longer we cling to You the more we stand in awe of You. Please help each of us to follow where You lead. May we move closer to You despite trials or triumphs. May we cling to Your truths and promises. May the ground below us be a solid foundation built on Christ, not the shifting sands of this world. Help us draw nearer to You and feel You draw nearer to us. In the precious name of Your Holy Son, Jesus we pray. Amen.
If you have questions after this episode, please reach out to me at info@terrihitt.com. I’m happy to help you discover the ways you can ensure you trust and submit to God to lead your parenting.
I also have a resource that you’ll find helpful as you navigate your daily routine as a mom. If you’re ready to become the godly mother God entrusts you to be for Him and His children, you’ll love my free “Good to Godly: A 31-Day Scripture and Prayer Guide for Moms.” Visit terrihitt.com to receive this resource.
Time is short. Make yours matter for eternity. Remember - if you’re not purposed in knowing Jesus and showing Him to the next generation, the world will sway your children away from Christ. I pray that what you hear on this podcast enables you to stop being a good mom and focus on being a godly parent. Until next week, keep looking Up while focusing on new ways to parent with eternal purpose and connection with your children and Christ.
