Are you tired of your over-reactions to life’s everyday issues?
Have you lost hope that your marriage will ever get out of this rut?
Maybe you’re utterly spent emotionally, totally depleted of reserves, and feel like you’ll never be the wife or mama you imagined?
As I often say, “Sister, you’re not alone. There is hope.”
This latest episode on the More to Be Podcast reiterates that message for every weary woman, every triggered mama, every disheartened wife. Amber Lia, author of Marriage Triggers with her husband, Guy, and co-author of Triggers: Exchanging Parents’ Angry Reactions for Gentle Biblical Responses, with Wendy Speake, shares such deep biblical wisdom with relevant action steps.
You’ll be encouraged to pursue God for real and lasting transformation, not only in your relationships but in yourself. Count this as your marching orders, girding you up by the power of the Holy Spirit, to face the most daunting daily struggles with fresh hope and perspective.
