To sum me up...
I love a crackling fire, a deep conversation, and knowing that the kitchen is clean for the next morning. My greatest passion is knowing Christ and making him known—in my home, my community, and to the ends of the internet.
Gospel Mom
My Newest Book
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 the Risen Motherhood co-founders, Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler, 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 now.

He Is Strong
We all feel weak sometimes. He Is Strong encourages you to rest in God’s help and strength for every one of your inadequacies.
Join Emily A. Jensen, bestselling coauthor of Risen Motherhood, on a devotional journey to find God’s strength amid your weakness. Whether you think of yourself as overwhelmed, overlooked, or just not very good at life (or perhaps you avoid facing your own shortcomings), Emily shares relatable stories about her own feelings of weakness and points you to the gospel for wisdom, hope, and comfort. As the familiar hymn says, “They are weak, but he is strong.”
Let these Scripture-filled reflections remind you that Jesus loves you, even in your weakness. You can rely on the strength of God in any challenge you face.
