Ep. 28 - Teaching My Daughter the Heart of Servanthood: A Christian Mom’s Journey

Jazmin Ruiz Season 3 Episode 28

In today’s heartfelt episode of Building Her Up, I’m taking you behind the scenes of a personal moment in motherhood—teaching my daughter what it means to have the heart of a servant. As a Christian mom, I’m learning that modeling Christlike character begins in the everyday, and this week I share three powerful lessons God is teaching me through parenting, as I guide my daughter into understanding the joy and value of serving others.

This episode is for the mom who’s wondering how to raise godly children in a world that glorifies self over service. If you’ve ever asked, “How do I teach my child to follow Jesus in action, not just words?”—this one’s for you.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

🔹 Serving with Joy – Psalm 100:2
“Serve the Lord with gladness” isn’t just a verse—it’s a posture. I share how I’m teaching my daughter to find joy in serving, even in the little things, and how her attitude begins to shift when service is framed as worship.

🔹 Serving When It’s Undeserved – 1 Peter 3:9
What does it look like to serve someone who hasn’t earned it? This part of our journey includes sibling conflicts, messy emotions, and choosing to bless instead of repay. It’s not easy, but it’s holy.

🔹 Serving the Least of These – Matthew 25:31–46
From helping those in need to practicing compassion, I talk about how we’re learning to see Jesus in the “least of these” and why that perspective is shaping both of our hearts.

You’ll hear real stories from our daily life, honest reflections from my journey as a mother, and practical tips to help you begin modeling servanthood in your own home. This episode blends biblical parenting principles with grace-filled encouragement for your motherhood walk.

If you’ve been praying for ways to instill Christlike values in your kids, or if you need fresh perspective on your role as a mother and mentor, this episode will inspire and equip you.

🎧 Tune in now and let’s grow together in faith, motherhood, and the call to serve.
