Ten ways to be another mom’s cheerleader + Psalm 103:9 printable Bible verse cards

Hi friends! Today I’m guest-posting “10 ways to be another mom’s cheerleader” over at the JellyTelly blog HERE. You can also head there to download these encouraging Scripture verse cards! I hope you enjoy the post!

I was in the middle of a battle of wills with a child of mine. (This is the same child who responded to my observation, “You are being particularly difficult this morning,” with: “I don’t speak Spanish.”)

My dear friend and neighbor came over in the middle of this struggle, and I sighed and said, “Please just tell me I’m not a terrible mom.”

She looked and me and said with confidence, “You are a fantastic mom, and I think you’re doing a great job!”

Sniff.

Don’t we all need a cheerleader friend like that?

Read the rest HERE!

This episode of The Pictured Word Podcast is Chapt This episode of The Pictured Word Podcast is Chapter 3 of the Jesus Speaks to Women Series on the words Jesus spoke to the Samaritan woman at the well, found in John 4:1-42. You can listen on the Marydean Draws Substack page or on most podcast apps.

In this study, I examine the common assumptions we often hear about this story, provide important cultural context, and try to understand what the conversation between Jesus and the woman, the longest recorded between Jesus and anyone in the Gospels, is actually about.

❤️Welcome to The Pictured Word podcast, where I look at Scripture through a curious writer and artist’s eyes, draw on the beauty found in the tradition of Christian art, and learn from the insight of Biblical scholarship. Whether you come to the Bible weary, wounded, or wondering, my goal is to help you see the Jesus revealed there.

This print in my newest collection of hymn prints This print in my newest collection of hymn prints is a really special one and the first time I've made a horizontal print. “Lift Every Voice and Sing” by James Weldon Johnson and his brother Rosamond Johnson was written in 1900 and became known as the “Negro National Hymn” or “Negro National Anthem.” You might recognize it as the song that opens the Super Bowl each year. James Johnson was an educator, lawyer, and author, and his brother Rosamond was an accomplished musician. You can read more about the brothers in the post I wrote about them below.

Here's the link to the print that comes in 8x10" and 11x14":

I'm getting ready to record the podcast episode on I'm getting ready to record the podcast episode on the Samaritan woman in John 4. I'm wondering what you've been taught or have assumed about her and the point of her extensive conversation with Jesus. Through studying this story, I've changed my mind about most of my previous assumptions! Podcast episode coming this week on The Pictured Word Podcast!
