Check out Heidi's new book, The Mouse & The Sea, from Brave Books!
"It's amazing to me. I wake up in the morning and my Bible weighs a thousand pounds and my phone weighs two ounces. And I think it's our human nature... It's so important that we're honest about it because it's a spiritual battle. So from the minute we wake up in the morning, we need to understand that it's the enemy's number one goals to keep us from communicating and talking with and leaning into our relationship with the Lord." - Heidi St. John

When you think about Christmas and the birth of Jesus, do you ever consider Mary? Who was she? How did she react to the news that she would bear the Christ child?  What was it like to be the mother of a perfect child? What pressures did she endure and how did she handle being pregnant without being married or even fully united with her betrothed, Joseph? What kind of support did she have from her family and friends? Was she scared?
Join Yvette Hampton and Aby Rinella as they talk about their favorite Christmas traditions in light of the lessons learned from this young girl who literally changed the world by simply saying "Yes" to the Lord. What is He calling YOU to do? How can you be a world changer? And, what lessons can we as homeschool moms learn from Mary? This episode was originally broadcast in 2020.
