The Story of Solo Parent
Every girl deserves a faith-filled adventure click here for the NIV Kingdom Girls Bible
Single Parent Day is in just a few days, on March 21st. For this episode, we wanted to do something special for our solos—and it just so happens that a lot of listeners have been asking us to tell the origin story of Solo Parent.
This week we talked to Robert, Amber, and Elizabeth about how Solo Parent came into being. For this conversation, we also welcome back Kimberly Mitchell. Kim is a familiar voice from our podcast and played an instrumental part in the Solo Parent Story.

Getting Out of Bed When You Don't Have What It Takes w/ Dr. Alan Noble
Every morning, we wake up and we have to decide: Are we going to get out of bed…or not? There are days when it all feels like too much; the trials and tribulations of this world seem insurmountable and the lure of staying in bed and hiding from everything and everyone looks like the only solution. Every solo parent has experienced this feeling of overwhelm and knows… we still have to do it. Our kids are depending on us. Their world can’t run without us. So, how do we get out of bed when we feel like we don’t have what it takes?
Our guest today is Dr. Alan Noble, an associate professor at Oklahoma Baptist University, and co-founder and editor-in-chief at Christ and Pop Culture. He has written for the Atlantic, Vox, The Gospel Coalition, Christianity Today, and First Things. He is the author of multiple books including the one we’re discussing today—” On Getting Out of Bed: The Burden and Gift of Living.”

Customer Reviews
Dr. John Delony episode was so insightful!!!
Please bring Dr. John Delony back on. This was such an insightful episode especially with the fire alarm analogy!
So helpful!
Love this podcast so much. So thankful for finding it in this season I am. It encourages me and reminds me I am not alone and that others are going through similar journeys. Also it gives me hope for a brighter future. Can’t wait for Mondays.
Best way to start my week!
I love this podcast and this ministry. My favorite part is waiting to hear what outrageous example Robert Beeson uses as a reason to bring up the show notes.
