Anytime you produce something public, you open yourself up to criticism—and Risen Motherhood was no different. Over the years, we received feedback of all kinds: encouraging, loving, constructively critical, and at times, hurtful. Maybe you've experienced the same in your own ministry work, or simply in everyday life. In this episode, Emily and Laura unpack some of these critiques and share their hearts for why they did or didn't make certain decisions throughout the life of the ministry. Honestly, R|M wasn't for everyone. But the gospel is for everyone, and we're so grateful for the ways the Lord used us to bring the hope of Christ to so many moms. To him be the glory!
