Love&BLoved Podcast with Lena Cebula
Welcome to the Love&BLoved™ Podcast.
I’m Lena Cebula—wife, mother of three, Certified Christian Leadership Coach, speaker, author of Miraculous: My Journey from Hell to Heaven, and founder of Love&BLoved™ and The Renewal Method Community.
I help Christian moms manage stress so they can respond with grace, strengthen their faith and well-being, and leave a legacy of peace for their children.
Through a variety of podcast series, honest conversations, and inspiring guest interviews, you’ll discover biblical encouragement, practical wisdom, and real stories of faith, resilience, and personal growth to support you in every season of motherhood.
One of those series is the Rising Mother Series. I sit down with carefully selected Christian moms who share honest stories of how God has met them through life’s challenges and used every season to shape their faith and purpose.
I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed, and I also know the incredible peace that comes from trusting God. My prayer is that these conversations encourage every mom to hold on to hope, trust God’s process, and discover that no season is beyond His redeeming grace. Restoration is possible through Christ.
If you’re looking for encouragement beyond the podcast, you’re also invited to join the Love&BLoved™ Community, where Christian moms connect, grow in faith, and support one another.
