I have to admit, I’ve been a bit late getting on the podcast bandwagon. I would sometimes listen to webinars or online conventions but just didn’t get into podcasts. However, for the past few months, I have been listening to a few podcasts, and I find them quite insightful, interesting, and encouraging. That’s why today I’m going to share some great Christian mom podcasts with you.
It’s important to watch what you are taking in and what is filling your mind. By listening to worship music, the Bible, or Christian podcasts, you can take an active role in filling your mind with the things of God. So, if you’re looking to start listening to podcasts or you just need some new ones to listen to, be sure to check out these Christian podcasts for moms.

Why are Podcasts so Popular?
Podcasts seem to be getting more and more popular each year. So, why are they so popular? Podcasts are an easy way to build personal growth, spiritual growth, or even get practical advice from a Christian perspective. Listening to podcasts really does have plenty of other benefits as well.
Benefits of Podcasts
Speaking of benefits, let’s get into some of the benefits of listening to podcasts. Podcasts really are great for busy moms, as long as you’re not just listening to them instead of paying attention to your children. Like with many things in life, there needs to be balance.
- Convenience: Podcasts can be listened to anytime and anywhere, making them easy to fit into your schedule. They are a great way to listen as you go about everyday life tasks . . . such as dishes or cleaning.
- Variety: There are podcasts on virtually every topic, including Christian motherhood, faith-based parenting, growing in faith, apologetics, physical health, homeschooling, organizing, financial freedom, and more. You can listen to exactly what you’d like to hear.
- Cost-effective: Most podcasts are free to listen to, making them a more affordable alternative to other forms of entertainment or education.
- Mobility: Since podcasts can be downloaded, you can take them with you on the go without needing an internet connection. They are easy to listen to as you move around your home or drive into town. As you go about your everyday lives, you can listen to new episodes.
- Engagement: Podcasts often feature interviews, honest conversations, and storytelling, which can be more engaging than reading or watching videos.
- Intimacy building: As you listen to your favorite podcasts, you build a connection with that person. You may even comment or engage with them on social media.
