    Best of 2024: Leading Your Family as a Single Mom (Part 1 of 2)

    Date: Dec 3, 2024

    Guests: PeggySue Wells, Pam Farrel

    If you’re a single parent, you’ve got the job of two people and doing all you can to keep your family afloat! On this two-day Focus on the Family broadcast, Pam Farrel, raised by a single mom, and PeggySue Wells, a single mom of seven, offer guidance to single moms and dads as they navigate life with their children. They examine some of the best decisions a single mom can make—things like choosing to thrive, creating a nurturing home, introducing your child to Jesus, and learning to respond to situations in healthy ways. It’s an encouraging conversation for the single parent!
