Beginning of something new...

Ok, ladies- Corrie has officially inspired me to start a Bible study blog. I thought I was going to have this really clever Mom's the Word website, but someone more clever than I already stole the address. So...this is the next best thing- Mom's (in) the Word.

I'm a busy new mother trying to balance working full-time with my 4 month old son. Like many others, unfortunately, I have found that my Bible study and prayer life has struggled due to a million excuses--mostly time!! But no more excuses. I'm hoping this blog will inspire me and hold me accountable for reading the Word daily, studying it, and applying it in my own life.

I've spent awhile this evening googling Bible studies on motherhood and haven't had much luck. There's tons of individual books written on the topic, but most are fairly general and few seem to be actual, in-depth looks at Biblical mothers. I did find a website that suggested some Biblical mothers to read about and gave Scripture references, so I think I'll start there and we'll see where I end up!... Feel free to take this journey with me- read, comment, let me know what you're studying as well. Let's all start something new.
