Session One : Introduction

In this curriculum, we explore the pervasive anxiety moms face throughout different stages of motherhood, from fears about newborn safety to concerns about teenage decisions and adult independence. We'll talk about how these anxieties often stem from a lack of control, external influences, and deep care for our children’s well-being and spiritual growth. Karen encourages us to find comfort in shared experiences, Scripture, and faith, reminding us that anxiety has been a part of human experience for generations and can be tackled together.

Session Two: Moses 

This session draws parallels between Moses’ journey and the challenges of motherhood, emphasizing feelings of loneliness, inadequacy, and the struggle to navigate an unexpected path. We'll talk about God’s faithfulness in Moses’ life—from the Nile to the Promised Land—and remember to trust that God is present and guiding us in our parenting journey. Through personal anecdotes and scriptural insights, Karen reassures us that we are not alone and that God provides support and direction every step of the way.

 Session Three: David

In this session, Karen shares how she’s often felt overlooked and undervalued, much like David, the youngest of eight brothers who was initially dismissed by his family. She opens up about the challenges moms face—feelings of loneliness, self-doubt, and like life is passing us by—and encourages us to use those hard seasons to draw closer to God. By trusting His timing and surrendering our plans to Him, God can work through us in amazing ways, even when we don’t see it. This session is a great reminder that we matter deeply to our families, our friends, and most importantly to God.

Session Four: Woman at the Well

In this session, we talk about the struggles of feeling “not good enough” as a mother, and comparing ourselves to others in moments of failure and guilt. We'll draw parallels to the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman, and take a closer look at how Jesus meets us in our physical, spiritual, and future needs, with grace and transformation. This session is a much needed reminder to trust God, accept help, and find our worth and purpose in Him, rather than in our perceived shortcomings.

Session Five: Martha

In this session, we focus on the challenges of balancing the responsibilities of a busy mom, including stories of stress, misplaced focus and being overly concerned with household tasks. Using the story of Mary and Martha from Luke 10:38-42, we'll dig into the importance of prioritizing time with Jesus and meeting our spiritual needs over busyness and distractions. We'll give practical steps for scheduling quiet time with God and being present in the moment.

Session Six: Jesus

In this session, we'll reflect on Jesus’ time in Gethsemane, emphasizing His humanity as He faced overwhelming sorrow and submitted to God’s will despite unanswered prayers. We'll highlight the importance of trusting God, even in difficult circumstances and challenges of motherhood. This session encourages moms to deepen their relationship with God through stillness and trust, reminding us that God provides strength and peace in every season of life.
