The Miracle in the Stretch: When God Asks You to Move First

Not Everyone Wants a Hug: Teaching Your Kids to Love Hurting Friends Well

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2446673/fan_mail/new] What if the best way to love someone… isn’t to step in—but to gently stay nearby? In this episode, we’re talking about something every mama—and every child—will face: how to respond when someone is hurting. Because not everyone processes pain the same way. Some people want to talk.  Some want a hug.  And some… just need space to ugly cry on the floor without explaining a thing. So how do we love well in those moments? And how do we teach our kids to do the same? In this episode, I’m sharing a personal look at how I process grief, what real friendship has looked like in my hardest seasons, and four practical, biblical ways to support a hurting friend—without overwhelming them. We’ll also talk about simple, age-appropriate ways to help our kids:  ✨ ask what others need  ✨ respect boundaries  ✨ offer comfort through prayer  ✨ and show love in meaningful ways Because we’re not just raising kids… we’re raising comfort-givers. And that matters more than we know. ✨ Scriptures in this episode * Proverbs 17:17 * Galatians 6:2 * Psalm 30:5 * 2 Kings 2:2 * 2 Corinthians 1:3–4 Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2446673/support] 🥰BECOME A PART OF MY SUPPORT TEAM🩷 LINK: Real Moms Real Faith with Jenna Marie Masters (Real Moms, Real Faith Support Team🩷) [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2446673/support] Join me over @jennamariemasters SUBSCRIBE to my website for encouraging articles and free content:  www.jennamariemasters.com

The Miracle in the Stretch: When God Asks You to Move First

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2446673/fan_mail/new] Motherhood has a way of stretching us in every direction.  Schedules. Expectations. Laundry piles. Spiritual pressure. And sometimes… it makes us feel like we’re shrinking instead of growing. In Luke 6, Jesus sees a man with a shriveled hand and tells him something surprising: “Stretch out your hand.” The miracle didn’t happen before the movement.  It happened in the stretching. ✨ I also created a 5-Day “Stretch Out Your Hand” Family Challenge to help you practice this with your kids. Comment ROOTED on my Instagram and I’ll send it to you. 🎧 Listen to the episode and share with a mom who might be feeling stretched this week.

You are never alone.

Building What Matters: A Spiritual House for Our Kids

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2446673/fan_mail/new]  3 Ways to Craft Christlike Hearts at Home  What are you really building as a mom? When the Bible calls Jesus a “carpenter,” the original word is tekton—a builder, a craftsman. In a region where homes were made of stone, Jesus understood foundations deeply. So when He spoke about building a house on the rock, He meant it. In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to build a spiritual house that lasts—through prayer, loving others well, seeing the overlooked, and remembering that we are still being built too. Mamas, the houses of wood and stone may fade, but what you build in faith will stand forever.
