In the ongoing series Teach Me What Your Learning we get to hear more from Deb as we dig into her soon to be released book Immeasurably More: 100 Devotions on God's Extravagant Grace.

In this episode Deb shares about her struggle with shaping her children's faith as they grew, and her doubt if she was doing enough.

Have you ever felt uncertain about helping your children or loved ones in their faith walk? Wondering if you are doing it right? Or if you are doing enough?

Deb encourages us as we recognize that every moment matters, and that as we pray and trust in God, He uses each imperfect moment to point to His perfect grace.

What Deb saw was God in every unexpected moment of parenting, as she discovered joy and opportunities in places she least expected including:
-discussing the sermon driving from church
-listening to the Christian radio
-processing hard conversations and experiences with friends
-seeing God at work through others

Then she posed the question to each of the moms:
"Concerning your children, a friend or another family member's faith how have you fretted?"

Faith shared about struggling with teaching some of her new first graders who didn't know anything about faith. She felt uncertain about how she would approach it, but discovered God was already at work in the children's hearts that she got to witness and walk in.

Michelle talked about walking along side friend's whose children are struggling with their faith in God. Her friend wrestled with how she responds to her child's difficult life decisions, but they were encouraged by the story of the prodigal son, and the extravagant love that God the Father shows His wayward children. While there isn't resolution, her friend has the unshakeable faith in the grace of God and love of the father for her child.

Lindsay breaks the rules and doesn't answer the question as it was originally posed...but she shares about how she is "fretting" about her faith as a mom as she goes through a season of transition in motherhood. But she sees that God is at work in forming her faith as she trusts and rests in the process.

The moms close as they recognize the ways that they are seeing God break through as they see the evidence of God at work in the lives of those they love. While they don't have all the answers, they recognize what God is doing in the mess of motherhood, and as they share their faith with others. As they pause and see the unexpected ways the Holy Spirit is already at work, they find joy in the journey.
