In all of our multitude of experiences with motherhood, Elizabeth invites us to see how mothering, in all its forms, and in all of its intensity and ordinariness, reveals the expansive and nurturing heart of God.
In this conversation, you’ll hear:
How viewing God through a maternal lens can expand and deepen our faith, no matter your gender or experience with motherhood
Stories from scripture—often hiding in plain sight—that show God’s love in very maternal, embodied ways
Honest reflections about wrestling with new images of God, and the courage it takes to lean into the discomfort
How ordinary, daily acts of care can become sacred ground for encountering a God who is tender, present, and nurturing
