Ep. 154: Does It Really Take a Village? (A Chat with Jennifer Flanders)
Podcast:M Is for Mama Podcast Published On: Wed Aug 12 2026 Description: We’re back with season 4 of the M is for Mama podcast, and we’re kicking it off with one of my favorite people, Jennifer Flanders. In this episode, we chat about all things “village” in motherhood.It’s no secret that moms need help, but the ultimate question is from where? And what do we do when we’re in seasons of little or no help from our community?We tackle these questions (and lots more) with personal experience and, so much more importantly, truth from God’s Word. Whether your mom lives down the street and comes over every day to help or you live 500 miles from your closest family member and don’t even have a reliable babysitter you can pay, be encouraged that the Lord’s strength is sufficient for all He has called you to, and that strength is perfected, not diminished, in your weakness.
