No Such Thing As a SuperMom with Alice Churnock and Hannah Dow
In this final episode of our season Can't Do It All, Anna welcomes back Rooted podcaster Alice Churnock and introduces our brand-new executive director Hannah Dow. We invited them to talk about the (potential) overwhelm of being a mother. Both of these moms juggle full-time jobs while running their households, caring for elderly parents, serving at church, and attempting to maintain friendships and good health. Additionally, Hannah is a single mother. You'll want to hear how they find rest in the gospel, but you'll also glean some practical tips. Be encouraged by their wholehearted pursuit of Jesus in the midst of their busy lives. Alice Churnock is the Founder of BrainCore of Birmingham, and a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor with more than 20 years of experience counseling adolescents. She and her husband have two teenage boys. Hannah Dow is the Executive Director of Rooted; she previously served on Rooted’s Board of Directors and wrote articles for the blog. She and her daughter, Neal, love road trips, local bookstores, and dabbling with watercolors.  Ask Alice podcast on RootedAlice Churnock author pageHannah Dow author pageRest for Your Soul: A Bible Study on Solitude, Silence, and Prayer by Wendy Blight (this needs a link from Amazon; for some reason I have lost access to that account!)Erin Condren Planners Matthew 11:28-30 Phil 1:6, 4:13Daniel 3 Follow us @rootedministry! Subscribe to the Rooted Parent Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts.

Can't Afford It All- The Stress of Limited Finances
Parents often live with the fear that they won't be able to give their children everything they need- much less the things they want. And let's face it, with the rising costs of housing and groceries, parents have a lot to juggle just to pay the bills. In this episode, Cameron and Anna address the heartache that comes with our limited financial resources, and they offer the reminder that God does not expect us to provide Disney vacations and private tutors for our children. Rather, he asks us to show our children what it looks like to love him, and this is something where every Christian parent has ample resources to give their family.  Luke 18:18-30Parents, What Are You Teaching Your Kids about Money? by Tracey Rector The Grace of Giving by Katie Polski

You Can't Do It All- And That's a Big Relief with David Zahl
David Zahl's new book The Big Relief offers a mess of help for parents who are in urgent need of grace in this worn-out world. David will take some big theological concepts like justification, imputation, and surrender, and show how these terms are not just ideas, but solid truths that set parents free from the pressure to do it all, and do it all perfectly, for the kids they love. David Zahl is the director of Mockingbird Ministries and editor-in-chief of the Mockingbird website. David and his wife Cate reside in Charlottesville, VA with their three boys, where David also serves on the staff of Christ Episcopal Church. He is the author of numerous books, including Seculosity: How Career, Parenting, Technology, Food, Politics, and Romance Became Our New Religion and What To Do About It.   The Big Relief: The Urgency of Grace for a Worn-Out World MockingbirdBurn Babywise Burn by Cameron ColePaul Zahl - New Persuasive Words, Talk 1 Pt 1
