Intentional Motherhood | Mindset, Wellness, Routines, Self-Care, Presence for Stressed Christian SAHMs

In this solo Father's Day episode, host Kelsey Redd shares a personal and vulnerable reflection on faith, language, and the perfect love of God the Father. After years of using inclusive terms like "the universe" and "divine source" in her work as a mental health counselor, Kelsey opens up about a moment of spiritual clarity that prompted her to start speaking more directly about God — and why that distinction matters.Drawing on a talk by Elder D. Todd Christofferson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Kelsey explores what it means to be parented by a perfect, loving Heavenly Father, and unpacks four powerful ways God shows His love for His children:Through teaching — giving us "earth school" to learn through our own experiencesThrough example — sending Jesus Christ as a perfect mirror of the Father's loveThrough provision — sustaining us daily, body and soulThrough sacrifice — the gift of His only Son for all of humanityKelsey also reflects on motherhood, minimalism, gift-giving, and a sweet moment watching her daughter's pure joy at the pool — drawing a tender parallel to how God delights in watching His own children experience joy.Whether you're navigating your own faith journey, thinking about the role of fathers (earthly and heavenly) in your life, or simply looking for a moment of spiritual reflection this Father's Day, this episode offers an honest, heartfelt look at gratitude, language, and divine love.This episode is perfect for moms of faith, LDS listeners, Christian mothers, anyone exploring spirituality and parenthood, Father's Day reflections. Subscribe now, share this show with a mom friend, and join the conversation! Want to be in the know?
