As a woman who wants to follow Jesus in her everyday life, you yearn for intimacy with God. You long to know his presence, to be satisfied in heart and soul, but you don’t know how.

People of faith are lined up in lanes all over this globe, batons in hand, running the race that matters most in this world - the divine relay! The divine relay is tough. The track is treacherous.

Why do moms find themselves settling for a depleted and frustrated existence when motherhood is truly one of the greatest gifts from God? Being a mom is one of the most important-yet-difficult roles a woman will ever fill. Deep in their hearts, many women believe they are failing their families, are emotionally anemic, and are utterly helpless to maintain their peace while raising kids.
