  • Tip for filler words

    I really appreciate Abbie’s commitment to offering Biblically sound advice for moms. It is refreshing in our time! Because the message is so vital and inspiring, I have to say a practical tip is to stop saying “um” and “uh” so much which is why I can only give this podcast 1 star. Anyone in the public speaking space knows that words or gestures that distract from the message need to go. In a more recent podcast about building another house, it wasn’t even a 1/4 of the way into the discussion and... more

  • Re-centering on Christ

    These podcasts from Abbie are encouraging in my faith. She takes on some difficult issues and always presents what the Bible says and not just what she thinks. Wisdom from a fellow mama is always refreshing and biblical wisdom is exactly what God asks us to seek out.

  • Episode 139, are you getting enough magnesium?

    I know you said you were reacting that way because of hormones but I’ve noticed if I forget to take my magnesium, the next day I have a hard time calming down from small annoyances. Also I adored the episode where you interviewed your daughter!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 148: WWKW (May 2026)
Q: Is it reasonable to expect a three-year-old to obey immediately the first time you ask?
Experience with many children shows that immediate obedience isn't always realistic, but the goal is to train listening, processing, and following through by communicating clearly, being patient, and supporting them through the task at hand.
Ep. 145: Contentment for Christian Women (A Chat with Tilly Dillehay)
Q: What is the core message you want listeners to take away about contentment?
Contentment is a daily choice rooted in gratitude for the mercy we've received; it reframes everyday annoyances as opportunities to trust God and to honor Him through faithful service.
Ep. 143: We’re Building Another House!! (Q&A)
Q: What about your sport court and whether you'll build another one?
She says the sport court has been a tremendous blessing and plans to build another one in the future if possible, while acknowledging costs and the reality of potentially not recouping all expenses.
Ep. 143: We’re Building Another House!! (Q&A)
Q: One is how much of the work we'll do ourselves.
Abbie explains that the amount of DIY work is still up in the air, emphasizing past experience but noting that plans can vary with new builders and terrain, and highlighting the balance between sweat equity and professional help.
Ep. 128: WWKW—Christmas Edition 2025
Q: Do you do Santa or why not?
We don't and we never have; we believe it's important for our kids to know the gifts come from us and other loved ones instead.
