126- Parallels Between Moms of the Bible and You — Rhonda Stoppe on Overcoming Mom Guilt

Join host Jennifer Bosma on the Front Parking Spot Podcast as she welcomes bestselling author, speaker, and podcaster Rhonda Stoppe. In this encouraging episode Rhonda dismantles mom guilt and speaks directly to faith-based mothers who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or inadequate. Rhonda shares candid stories from her life and ministry—including honest reflections on past choices, youth ministry experiences, and her advocacy around preventing teen abortion—and explains how Scripture and older mentors transformed her motherhood. Topics covered include: practical faith-filled parenting, the power of intercessory prayer for wayward children, navigating shame and forgiveness (including a moving account of past involvement in a teen abortion), and how biblical stories of moms like Mary, Rahab, and Herodias provide insight and freedom for modern mothers. Rhonda also discusses premarital counseling and healthy sexuality within marriage, the need for honest conversations with teens, and the importance of older women mentoring younger moms (“Old Ladies Know Stuff”). Rhonda describes her new book Moms of the Bible (released March 10) and the resources that accompany it—audio and Spanish editions, free chapter previews, video teachings and small-group discussion guides available at her website (noregretswoman.com). She highlights concrete next steps for listeners: find godly mentors, pray fervently for your children, seek forgiveness to break bitter ties, and lean on community to run the race of motherhood with eyes fixed on Jesus. Expect an honest, gospel-centered conversation full of practical encouragement, scriptural insight, and real-life stories. This episode is for any mom who needs permission to be enough, wants tangible ways to grow in faith with her family, or seeks healing from past wounds.
