Struggling with the overwhelming anxiety of sending your child off to school? You're not alone. This episode tackles the "spirit of fear" that grips so many mothers during this season of transition.

Many mothers grapple with the fear of letting go and trusting that their kids will be okay. But this isn't just normal "mom worry." It's often a spiritual battleground where the enemy uses our love for our children to plant seeds of doubt and anxiety, tempting us to make decisions out of fear rather than faith. Learning to combat this spirit of fear is essential not just for your own peace of mind, but for empowering your children to step into the purpose God has for them, brave and full of faith.

🎯 KEY EPISODE TAKEAWAYS:

⚠️ THE HIDDEN FEAR CHECK [14:14]:

"My feeling for homeschooling was out of fear. It's because selfishly I want to keep Chloe with me. I want to teach her all the things. I want to do that because I don't want her to go."

Are your protective instincts rooted in wisdom or a spirit of fear? This moment helps you discern the difference and avoid making decisions that could hinder your child's growth.

⚡️ YOUR 3-WORD FEAR SHUTDOWN [26:54]:

"Jesus answered it with, 'It is written.'... That is how we should answer it. Answer it, answer it with the word like Jesus did. He said ‘it is written’, and then he just came back to the devil with what his father says is true."

Get the exact, practical weapon to use the moment a fearful thought enters your mind. This simple yet powerful strategy stops the enemy's narrative and replaces it with God's truth.

✨ THE ULTIMATE PEACE PROMISE [54:03]:

"Peace I leave with you… my perfect peace I give to you... Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid. Let my perfect peace calm you in every circumstance and give you courage and strength for every challenge."

This is the ultimate desire for every worried parent. Discover how to claim this promise and replace overwhelming anxiety with God's perfect, unshakeable peace, no matter the circumstance.
