Have you ever caught yourself thinking...

"Seriously? I thought I already dealt with this."

Maybe it's overwhelm.

Maybe it's anxiety.

Maybe it's that same frustrating pattern in your marriage that you thought you'd already worked through.

When old struggles resurface, it's easy to believe you've gone backwards. But what if you've been measuring growth the wrong way?

In this episode of Faithful Mama Rising, we're talking about why recurring struggles don't erase your progress, what Jesus teaches us about pruning in John 15, and how learning to recognize unhealthy patterns sooner may actually be one of the greatest signs of spiritual growth.

If you're an overwhelmed Christian mom who has ever wondered, "Why am I here again?" this episode will encourage you to see those familiar battles through a completely different lens.

In this episode, we'll talk about:

  •  Why recurring patterns don't mean you've failed. 
  •  The difference between recognizing a pattern and living in one. 
  •  What Jesus teaches about pruning and continual growth in John 15. 
  •  Why the enemy wants you to focus on the recurrence instead of your growth. 
  •  One simple question to ask the next time overwhelm, anxiety, or an old pattern shows up. 

Scripture

John 15:1–2

Philippians 1:6
