For Those Who Have Some Fears About Their Family Growing

Marriage After God

About this episode

Afraid of your family growing? Aaron and Jennifer Smith, recorded while expecting their fourth child, talk honestly about the fears that can come with adding children and how to combat them biblically. Jennifer shares three fears: not being able to handle the demands of the home, missing out on time with the kids you already have, and losing personal time. They answer each one with Scripture, including 2 Timothy 1:7, Psalm 127, 2 Corinthians 12:9, and Psalm 34:4. Aaron talks about accepting human weakness, being intentional when you are present since you will inevitably miss some things, and charges husbands to cultivate a safe home and actively give their wives time to recharge rather than piling everything on them.
