Do you long for joy in your parenting again, but aren’t sure how to get it back? If you have ever wondered: “How do I parent with joy when my heart feels broken?” This episode will show you exactly how Jesus meets you, heals you, and leads you back into joy.
We explore how Jesus restores joy to your heart and home, even when you are parenting through pain, exhaustion, or emotional wounds. Many Christian parents want to cultivate a peaceful, joyful atmosphere, but the chaos of daily life — along with unhealed parts of our own story — can slowly drain that joy away.
Drawing from John 17:13–15, Galatians 5:22–26, and Matthew 6:33, we uncover the biblical truth that joy is not something you produce — it is something Jesus gives.
This episode will equip you with practical “how-to” steps for Christ-like parenting in the middle of real-life chaos, helping you experience joy that isn’t dependent on your circumstances, but on the presence and power of the Holy Spirit and prayer spoken by Jesus
Blessings, ✨ Tricia

Galatians 5:22–26 — The Holy Spirit produces the fruit of joy in us as we learn to “keep in step” with His leading, letting Him shape our reactions, attitudes, and emotional responses as parents.
Matthew 6:33 — Seeking God’s Kingdom first creates the daily space where the Holy Spirit cultivates joy, restores the heart, and provides everything we need as we parent through pain.
