When it comes to blowing up at our kids, it\\u2019s not a matter of if. It\\u2019s a matter of when. It happens to the best of us. But often the inciting incident isn\\u2019t the real issue because the thing that sets us off isn\\u2019t the root of the problem. We\\u2019ve got to dig up the root if we want to get rid of the bitter fruit.

In this episode, Catherine continues her encouraging and incredibly practical conversation with Kirsten Vossler, a mother of 9 and host of the The Rejoicing in Motherhood Podcast. Together, these mamas dig deep to find out what is really going on when that one last nerve is raw and exposed and we just can\\u2019t seem to keep it together. They also discuss how to exercise restraint and not indulge that fleshly desire to yell at our kids. The key is leaning into the Holy Spirit.

Using the 7 steps that Kirsten outlined in Episode 74, allowing the Holy Spirit to guide us and control our tongues, and getting to the root of what is really bothering will help us to mature as parents and believers. And as we commit to these steps, we will blow it a lot less with our kids.
