In this episode of The Hope + Help Project, Christine shares a bonus episode on the topic of heart change in motherhood based on stories from her book, Clean Home, Messy Heart: Promises of Renewal, Hope, and Change for Overwhelmed Moms. The episode is an edited version of a talk recorded in front of a live audience and unpacks the challenges of sacrificial love, comfort idolatry, repetitive sin habits, and self-reliance in motherhood, explaining how the gospel of Jesus Christ offers women hope and help for progressive, meaningful change.
Hope + Help Bonus Episode:
Heart Change in Motherhood
live recording with Christine Chappell
The Scripture exhorts us to be holy as our father is holy. But it also comforts us: our sanctification is a process. Don't limit Christ to being only an example, ladies. He's not just an example, he's your Savior. And if you could make these changes in your heart by yourself, you wouldn't need him. But you can't—so you do.
