GOSPEL HOPE FOR EVERYDAY MOMENTS
As moms, we’re surrounded by a lot of messages of who we “should” be and what we “should” do. But in Christ, there’s incredible freedom to be a mom who is unique and individual, while glorifying God and being faithful in motherhood. Not sure what that looks like? That’s exactly why we wrote these books.
Gospel Mom: How to Make Biblical Decisions and Discover the Mom God Created You to Be, along with its companion workbook
Becoming a Gospel Mom, is available anywhere books are sold.
WRITTEN BY EMILY A. JENSEN & LAURA WIFLER

Join
Risen Motherhood
cofounders Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler to explore what it truly means to be a gospel mom—a woman who is renewed by Christ’s righteousness, knows her mission and purpose, and lives free from guilt and unhealthy comparison.
While the book comes with discussion questions included after each chapter, to take you even deeper Emily and Laura created a companion workbook,
Becoming a Gospel Mom with additional questions, activities, and exercises. Consider Gospel Mom the class, and
Becoming a Gospel Mom
the application. This, mom, is your handbook to setting aside all those “I’m a fill-in-the-blank mom” temptations and pursuing what matters: becoming a gospel mom.

We need more than just to know what to do. We need to know who to be.

Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler co-founded Risen Motherhood while in the trenches of motherhood right alongside their readers. This 10-year-long ministry and chart-topping podcast sunsetted in 2026. With a combination of accessibility, relatability, and solid biblical knowledge, Emily and Laura simplify complex scriptural truths, relating and applying them to everyday life. As sisters-in-law, Emily and Laura both live in central Iowa with their families.

Hey, I'm Emily.
In between loads of dishes, laundry, and library books, you’ll find me writing and recording content that applies timeless gospel truths to all of life.
When people ask me what I do, I always fumble around. Yes, I’m the cofounder of
Risen Motherhood
and you might know me from
Instagram
or a
conference stage. I'm a
Bible teacher and author who loves helping women see how Scripture can shape both daily and big life decisions.
What does God's truth say when I’m disappointed? When I need to make a decision? When I’m frustrated with someone I love? When I’m folding laundry, answering an email, or realizing for approximately the 400th time that I’m not as patient as I thought I was?
Let's open our Bible and see how the gospel can reach further into our daily lives.
KEEP DIGGING IN
Let God's truth reach further and take root, from everyday choices to big life decisions. God has more to say than you may realize.
Here are a few more ways you can connect.
And always remember, there is grace as you grow.
