from Miracles in the Madness | Encouragement for Overwhelmed Christian Moms, Biblical Parenting, & Peace

Have you ever felt like God called you to something... and then the waiting became harder than you ever imagined?In this powerful Season 4 premiere of Miracles in the Madness, Ashton sits down with author, speaker, podcaster, and adoption advocate Marcy Bursac to talk about faith, obedience, Christian motherhood, foster care, adoption, and trusting God when life doesn't go according to plan.Marcy shares her incredible testimony—from writing letters to God as a teenager, to discovering a passion for adoption, to navigating an emotional 18-month journey to adopt her two children through foster care. During one of her darkest moments, exhausted and overwhelmed by uncertainty, she felt God speak four words that changed everything:"This isn't about you."Together, Ashton and Marcy discuss what it means to trust God when you can't see the outcome, how faith sustains us in long seasons of waiting, the importance of Christian community, and why obedience often begins with simply taking the next step.Whether you're a Christian mom navigating uncertainty, waiting on God for answers, considering foster care or adoption, or simply longing to grow deeper in your faith, this conversation will encourage you to keep trusting the God who sees the bigger picture.Resources: ForgottenAdoptionOption.orgReady or Not?
