Whether or not a woman has been called to traditional motherhood, she demonstrates her nurturing gifts daily through caregiving, hospitality, discipleship, teaching, raising children, and serving others.

He is the goal of our missional motherhood. Seeing the big picture of Scripture is so important to our missional motherhood.Session 2: Motherhood in the Grand Plan of God (18:00)--Gloria helps us step back to see the full story of redemptive history and shows how motherhood fits in the grand plan of God during this session.Session 3: New Creation Life in Christ is the New Normal (15:55)--In this session women will address kingdom confusion and how new life in Christ is the new normal. We can't just settle for our best life now. We are to live with eternity in mind. As women we wear a lot of hats, but what is our true purpose?Session 4: The Priestess Next Door (17:45)--In this session Gloria encourages us to take seriously our role as kingdom priests, proclaiming the excellencies of our great God.Session 5: The King's New Creation (13:45)--This session reminds us that no matter how talented, organized, and focused we may be, in our own power we are not enough. But with the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit, that story changes.Session 6: Missional Motherhood Reaches from the Home to the World (9:20)--In this final session of Missional Motherhood we are reminded that Jesus sent out His disciples to change the world.
