The Holy High Five that All Christian Moms Need

Motherhood is no small calling—and if you’ve ever felt the weight of it, you’re not alone. 

In this special Mother’s Day week episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, Rachael Culpepper and Melissa Bearden bring encouragement, honesty, and a little holy boldness to the conversation. From late-night theological questions in pajamas to the everyday rhythms of meals, messes, and meaningful moments, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that motherhood is full-contact ministry—and none of it is wasted. 

With her signature passion, Melissa sets the tone by reminding moms that shame has no place in the life of a believer. Drawing inspiration from Scripture, she paints a powerful picture of walls falling, voices rising, and freedom found in Christ. Because as mamas raising girls in today’s world, there’s no room for fear or silence—we are called to stand firm, speak truth, and walk in confidence. 

In this week’s Raising Godly Girls Minute, Patti Garibay reflects on the sacred calling of motherhood and the daily dependence on God it requires. Through prayer, humility, and grace, moms are invited to partner with the Lord in shaping not just their daughters—but generations to come. 

You’ll also be reminded that motherhood was never meant to be done alone. God provides His presence, His strength, and His people to come alongside you—lifting your arms when you’re weary and reminding you that you don’t have to carry it all by yourself. 

Whether you’re in the thick of toddlerhood or navigating the young adult years, this episode is your invitation to take courage, lean into community, and trust that God is working in every faithful moment. 

Because even on the hardest days, your King is still on the throne—and He is making all things new. 

Two Things to Remember 

• Nothing is wasted with the Lord. Every prayer, every tear, and every faithful moment matters in God’s greater story.  

• Take courage—Jesus wins in the end. Your hope is secure in the One who is making all things new.
