(F3) Why I believe self care is not only healthy for a Christian mom but is biblical, necessary, and good

Episode 70.5 // Friday Faith Followup

 

As we talk about self care this week, let me address a common pushback that I hear in the church. Some people believe that “self care” is not appropriate for Christians.

 

I disagree. And in today’s episode, I want to encourage you with the biblical reasons I see for investing in self care (good, healthy, and genuine self care!) and ideas for how to live it out in the best possible way - for God’s glory and your family’s good.

 

Let’s dive in.
