Handling Mom Life: Stress, Contentment, and Capacity

from The Christian Homemaking Podcast: Simply Convivial with Mystie Winckler · host Mystie Winckler

Do you feel like there is more you should be able to handle at home, but stress keeps shutting you down?In this episode, I share part of a Convivial Circle seminar on expanded capacity, Christian contentment, stress, sanctification, and why growth often comes through the exact circumstances we would never choose for ourselves.Expanded capacity does not come from controlling your circumstances or becoming more productive. It grows through repentance, gratitude, endurance, and learning to receive the work God is doing in your actual life instead of resisting it.You’ll learn:why stress closes you off from growthhow perfectionism and control create overwhelmthe difference between selfish ambition and sanctificationwhy God expands capacity through endurance and humilityhow to recognize “adult fussiness”why organizing your attitude matters more than organizing your houseBest next step:Join the free Smile and Start Challengehttps://www.simplyconvivial.com/smileThis episode includes discussion of:The Rare Jewel of Christian ContentmentChristian sanctificationhomemaking overwhelmstress and emotional shutdownrepentance and gratitudeendurance and growthexpanded capacity in motherhood💜 My membership & courses:
