Agape Moms is a grass roots movement that empowers everyday moms to make disciples as we live on mission in everyday, messy mom-life.

We take seriously Christ’s design for the church and His call to EVERY believer to use the gifts He’s given them, and join Him on mission every single day, not just on Sunday or during a church program.

Agape Moms is not something new, it’s returning to something old, it’s returning back to being the family of God as we see in Acts 2, and praying for this revival in our local churches too. The church isn’t a building, it’s the people of God. It’s not a brand. It’s not a service. It’s a new identity!

If you have been sensing God pull your heart towards living for Him in a way that says, “my life is all yours, use it for your glory!” then please message us or visit our website so you can learn more about being equipped to make disciples in everyday, messy mom-life, and the opportunity to start an Agape Moms.

You’ll never have this day with your children again. I have a sign with this quote hanging in our playroom, with pictures below of my three babies when they were younger. Always serves as a good reminder to slow down.

Happy Valentine’s Day from Agape Moms!

No matter how your expectations are or are not being met on this Valentine’s Day, let’s marvel at God’s unconditional, Agape love for us!

God is always pursuing our wandering hearts because He wants an intimately close relationship with us, not because He is demanding an obligatory, "religious" relationship with us. He doesn't need our talents or something from us either, He just wants our hearts.

God was overwhelming me with this truth today from Hosea 2 with this love song for His people.

Serving God in the ordinary moments of motherhood matter! Now is the time to sow seeds, cultivate the soil of our children’s hearts, provide a good atmosphere for growth, and PRAY for God to do a work in our children’s hearts and lives. While we plant and water, it is only GOD who makes the seeds of faith and good deeds grow! The days seem so long sometimes, but the years are truly short. Just look at this breakdown! Also, I just registered my daughter for Kindergarten this morning 😢

 Agape Moms’ gospel-centered resource recommendation this week is “Daring to Hope: Finding God’s Goodness in the Broken and Beautiful” by Katie Davis Majors. Our guest blogger this week recommends this book, and the reviews look incredible! Here’s a quote she highlights for moms who may be struggling with serving God in the everyday tasks as a mother.

‘’God had been teaching me the extraordinary strength it takes just to be ordinary. To dwell knowledgeably and hospitably in this place He has given me with my people is, in fact, an extraordinary call. He has shown me the beauty of being attentive to one person, in the mundane, again and again. In a full life of trying to do great big things for God and see His glory in great big ways, He showed me He is glorified in the small too.’’ -Katie Davis Majors

Did you know this famous quote ISN’T actually by Mother Teresa? It sums up the gist of her famous acceptance speech for the Nobel Peace Prize, but it stops short of her message, and God’s message for us too.

Making an impact for God STARTS at home, but it doesn’t END at home because love knows no bounds. Loving God and loving others sums up all of the law, and while our seasons may change, the command to love doesn’t.

Far too often we get hung up on the “What” or the “Where” instead of sticking to the command which is focused on the “WHO.”

For many of us moms right now, our main “who” is loving the children around us,

This week the Agape Moms Community is unpacking the theme of Idolatry of the heart, especially as it relates with motherhood. “Idolatry” might sound like a weird, outdated, Bible-y word, but I promise you it’s something each of us struggles with every day.  Idolatry is when we adore, place value, trust or worship in anyone or anything instead of God. Idolatry has been humanity’s problem since the beginning. In this post, we’ll take a look through scripture as our history, but the bottom line is this.

We HAVE the Spring of Living Water, Jesus Christ, as our ultimate joy and hope, but instead we foolishly dig for ourselves broken vessels that are incapable of holding water for more than a couple minutes, and then we’re left desperate for water again. This is a metaphor for many of our frantic mom lives, panting for help, and looking in all the wrong places to fill our holey-cups when Jesus is right there offering an endless supply, and our thirst quenched for good. This is how tragic our idolatry of the heart is. What are the cisterns that you dig instead of running to the Spring of Living Water?

 This song by Bethel Music and Josh Baldwin has been on repeat! “My fear doesn’t stand a chance when I stand in your love.” This is what Agape Moms is all about.

💕Agape love is God’s unconditional love for us and the unconditional love we can have for each other in Jesus, this is the heartbeat of Agape Moms💕

“So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him...There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear.” 1 John‬ ‭4:16, 18‬ ‭

  #BRINGYOURMESS- What began as a simple hashtag I used to try and convey the sort of community God had burdened me to begin back in fall of 2016, has turned into our Agape Moms mantra, a simple saying that has given many mamas the courage to come for the first time. To come out from behind theirs screens, from the pseudo-connection of their social media worlds, from the sudden loneliness that cripples many moms transitioning from working to mom-ing, and having to have some serious identity checks. “Does my worth come from what I do? What about when no one sees what I do, and the amount of butts I wipe and messes I clean, Every. Single. Day.”

Things get messy real fast in the mom world, and it’s easy to hide behind our Instagram reels of happy moments, that are likely sandwiched between messy moments before and after the perfect snap
