Ruthless Mothering
Yvette Curtis-Brown
“So Monoah asked him, “…what kind of rules should govern the boys life and work?” (Judges 13:12) Welcome to Ruthless Mothering! Hi, I'm Yvette! I'm a homeschooling mom of three beautiful girls. Sometimes, I’ve felt like the epitome of an undeserving mom. Sometimes, I've messed up thoroughly, but I thank God for His help, teaching, discipline, and restoration and for choosing me to raise these God-loving girls!Ruthless Mothering is about raising whole children, rather than piecing them out to the world. Moms, today, feel the need to be more vigilant and proactive than ever before. The Bible is our best Resource if we want them to grow up knowing how to live well in this world.  I believe God understands the challenges moms face and wants to help us.   As I was preparing Ruthless Mothering, a few questions that came to mind.    - Am I stewarding our family based on what God and His Word says or based on how my parents raised me, on trauma, or on what others are saying/doing?    - Who do I want my children see me pleasing more:  God or others?    - Do my children see me spending more time on my phone or with God and my family?  Ruthless Mothering (RM) is focused on being a mom God's way because His direction is the only one that counts. He created us, and He knows what He thinks about us. (Jeremiah 29:11)   Thank you for your interest in Ruthless Mothering!   Please remember to rate and review the Podcast!   If you have show suggestions, comments, or questions, feel free to email me at [email protected].
Things Moms Are Afraid to Talk About
This is a general episode of a Series that I'll be talking about for the next few weeks. Moms, our lack of grace for ourselves is causing us so much loneliness, fear, doubt, shame, and insecurity. These are not the things that God thought of us before we were created. He is higher than these negative feelings. When we're thinking low of ourselves, remember: God's ways, including His thoughts, are higher than low self-esteem! Of course, this doesn't mean God is okay with us mistreating o...

Why God Isn't Into Disney
Today's episode is short, but we're talking about the trust we put in media. Is it that we believe they have our children's good interest at heart or that we just want to keep them busy while we do other things? There's a price to pay when we're not paying attention to our children. We'll talk much more about this in future episodes! Thanks for listening! Thanks for listening!

Welcome to Ruthless Mothering!
Welcome to the first episode of Ruthless Mothering! In the Book of Judges, Samson's dad, Manoah, asked the Angel of the Lord the most important and humbling question any parent can, and really should, ask God: How do we raise this child? (Judges 13:12) Ruthless Mothering is for moms and women (because we're all born from moms) who know that they're flawed and aren't afraid to talk about it. We're here to have discussions about what's going on in the world, and how to equip our childre...
