Episode 37: Love Like a Mother with Elizabeth Berget

Today we are sharing a conversation with author, Elizabeth Berget about her upcoming book, “Love Like a Mother: How the Sacred Work of Motherhood Reveals the Maternal Heart of God.” Elizabeth and Katy discuss what inspired her to write this book as well as the pressures placed on young moms to get it right and the misconception that God is male and how it may impact our theology negatively. Elizabeth also recounts the ways she experienced women and mothers particularly caring for the immigrant community in Minneapolis during the ICE raids this winter.
