Lilies and Manna

Manna Crumbs for Parents: ”come what may, and love it”

Manna Crumbs episodes are where my husband and I will talk about common 'crumby' parenthood moments and how finding 'crumbs' of Jesus Christ's gospel such as a scripture or talk can help parents turn to Jesus Christ and rely on Him during harder days of parenthood. 
Today's episode we focus on the classic talk, "Come What May, and Love It" by Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin, and how the manna crumbs taught in this address can help us remember Jesus Christ and be strengthened during even the crummiest moments as parents.

Consider the Ointment part 2: a job that is eternal

In today's episode of Consider the Ointment Part 2, we continue to use ointment as an object to tie back Jesus Christ in motherhood. This episode's focus is on the eternal perspective of our divine role as mothers and the generations that will be blessed by our selfless service to our children. 

Consider the Ointment part 1: our greatest work

In this Lilies episode, we will talk about how ointment that we use on our children can tie back to Jesus Christ and His life. We will be focusing on how our time and talents are truly best spent on our children, and that as we use our individual gifts in showing our love and devotion for our children, we are truly using them to show our love and devotion for Jesus Christ. 

Quickbread: Small and Simple Things

In this week's episode, Katey and I will be following up on last week's invitation to read Alma 37:6. We will be discussing how it truly is the small and simple things we do daily that can lead us to Jesus Christ and back to our Heavenly Father. 

Manna with Katey: scriptures, temple, garments and rising above the world

In today's episode, Katey joins us to share her favorite ways to partake of the manna of Jesus Christ's gospel. We will talk about how by daily actions like scripture study and wearing temple garments can help us rise above the world as we focus on our covenants and relationship with Jesus Christ. 

Consider the Crayons part 2: judgments in motherhood

In part 2 of this Lilies Episode, we will remember to drop our stones of judgement we may hold against ourselves, our children, and other women. Instead, we will focus on the love of our Savior, Jesus Christ and how He is the one perfect judge, and how He can help us become righteous judges in all areas of our life. 

Consider the Crayons part 1: comparison in motherhood

In this Lilies episode, we will talk about how crayons can tie back to Jesus Christ and His life, becoming a parable for us to remember in everyday motherhood. As we see our children coloring, it can remind us of Him and His desire for us to avoid comparisons with other women and instead compare ourselves to who we can become, to our children, and ultimately to Jesus Christ. 

The what and why behind Lilies and Manna

Manna interpreted in Hebrew means "what is it?", and so for this first episode I will be explaining the what and why behind Lilies and Manna podcast and what you can expect on each episode.
