AM I NORMAL?

Have you ever wondered: “Am I normal?”  Have you ever looked around at the piles of dirty laundry, the dishes in the sink, and the spaghetti sauce smeared on the walls, floor and faces of your children and wondered if you’re the only one?  Have you ever wanted to put your head under a pillow for a few minutes, just to take a break from the fart noises, screaming, and general chaos around you?  We have a special guest with us today who is going to encourage you and let you know that you are not alone!

Welcome back to our regularly scheduled episodes of Redeeming the Chaos with Laurie Christine!  For the past month I have been reading to you from my book Come and See! 30 Family Bible Stories for Easter.  Today we will be starting Season 3 of Redeeming the Chaos.

Does your life feel a bit chaotic right now?  Do you feel overwhelmed by the weight of responsibility to raise those little boys God has given you?  

Do you want to raise strong, courageous young men who are fully committed to following Jesus? 

In all the chaos of raising boys, we recognize that Christ is the only who can redeem the chaos in our world, our homes, and even our own hearts.

I know that I can’t do this alone.  I desperately need God to give me strength every step of this journey.  

But guess what… I also need YOU.  We boy moms gotta stick together, right?  

I’d love for you to join me on this wild, wonderful, chaotic adventure of raising courageous boys and connecting their hearts to Christ.
