It's the Circle of Life for the 'Lion Queen'. From expecting to delivering, to parenting and it all starts with... Expecting Moms
“‘For you formed my inward parts; You wove me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” Psalm 139:13-14a
Mother’s Day is a chance to celebrate and honor mothers in a way that reflects biblical values like love, gratitude, and family, while also pointing to God’s design for relationships.
Mother’s Day isn’t directly in the Bible—it’s a modern holiday, started in the U.S. in 1908 by Anna Jarvis to honor her mother’s caregiving legacy, and it went national in 1914. We often tie it to scriptural principles, especially the call to “honor your father and mother” (Exodus 20:12, Ephesians 6:2-3), one of the Ten Commandments promising long life for obedience. It’s less about a single day and more about a heart posture that fits the holiday.
We often view it:
Mothers reflect God’s nurturing nature. Proverbs 31:25-31 paints a picture of a godly woman—strong, hardworking, caring for her household.
Moms are often kids’ first spiritual teachers. Deuteronomy 6:6-7 urges parents to pass down faith, and Mother’s Day can spotlight this—like a mom praying with her child or bringing them to Sunday School.
The church body leans into Mother’s Day hard. Think special services with mom-themed sermons (maybe on Hannah from 1 Samuel 1, who prayed for a son), kids singing songs, or potluck-style brunches after. It’s a communal “well done” to moms, tying into that fellowship we talked about.
A day to reflect on God’s mother-like qualities—comforting “as a mother comforts her child” (Isaiah 66:13) or gathering us “like a hen gathers her chicks” (Matthew 23:37).
Not everyone’s Mother’s Day is rosy—some grieve lost moms, infertility, or strained ties. Churches often balance the joy with prayers for those hurting, recognizing the body’s diversity.
IChurches might host events—kids’ ministries crafting cards or gifts (think handprint art with “I love you, Mom!”), teens serving breakfast, or the congregation giving corsages.
For kids, it’s a chance to learn honor practically—“Hey, thank Mom for all she does!”—while tying it to loving God by loving others.
It’s a day of flowers, hugs, and maybe burnt toast from the kids, all wrapped in a Christian lens of thanking God for moms as part of His plan.
