With kids and full schedules, it's all too easy to feel like you're drowning, even on your best days as a parent. Managing family, work, rest, and community is overwhelming, especially if there's no weekly rhythm in place. What is the key to handling it all? In this episode, Josh and Christi have a conversation with Kirsten Watson, mom of seven and wife of author and retired NFL player, Benjamin Watson. Josh and Christi talk to Kirsten about her new book Sis, Take a Breath: Encouragement for the Woman Who's Trying to Live and Love Well (but Secretly Just Wants to Take a Nap).



Josh, Christi, and Kirsten talk about:



* The importance of discerning between a "glass" and "plastic" situation.* How to balance what you say "yes" to and what you say "no" to.* Effective ways to disciple your family and integrate faith in your home.* How to teach your kids about opposition when stepping into God's calling.
