This week is “Mom Week” so I’ll be posting THREE podcasts with different moms in different seasons.

On today’s podcast, I’m chatting with founder of iMom, Susan Merrill.  Susan is the mother of five grown children who shares wonderful wisdom for moms of toddlers, teens, and twenty-somethings, marriage, and what it means to make your moments matter.  In addition, Susan and her husband, Mark, started Family First Ministries over 25 years ago. Walking through an unexpected opened door, Susan shares how the Lord gave them strength to walk in obedience despite being advised by others not to.

Susan is also the digital marketing director for Family First Ministries so we talk about the changes and advances we’ve seen in social media and technology in just the last decade, the impact it has on society and the affect it has on children and young adults.

Susan has a great story and an even greater heart. She calls herself a hybrid of all sorts. So regardless of what stage of life you’re in, I’m sure you’ll take something away from this episode. If you’re a wife, mom, or woman needing to hear a testimony of the goodness of God, take some time to listen to this podcast.

Highlight from Today’s Episode:

• Advice for moms
• Expectations in marriage
