New mums need no convincing that their children are wonderfully made. But there are a whole heap of challenges that come with caring for young children—tiredness, loneliness, relationship stress to name a few.
Many churches have large and well attended groups for mothers and their children to support them through these stressful years, but find it more difficult to find ways of sharing the good news of the gospel to them.
Wonderfully Made is an innovative approach to this dilemma. Short video sessions connect with stressed parents where they are at—with the problems and questions that come with small children. There is practical advice in each session on being a ...new parent, and sympathetic stories from young mums.
But each session also points to a greater reality—the God who made us, our children and is a parent himself! The short talks by Mary Winter introduce us to the big ideas of who we are and why we are here from the early chapters of Genesis, and provokes discussion that will lead on to deeper thinking about God.
The seven sessions on this DVD will help you support new mothers and carers as they adjust to life with small children, and introduce them to the big themes of the gospel message.

We have just used this course for the first time as part of the new mums support group that we set up during the covid pandemic. Not being able to run our normal toddler group enabled us to focus on first time new mums. We started meeting in September, but didn't use this material until after Christmas, once we had already established good relationships. We had a couple of Christian mums in the group, but the rest were non-Christians. I found leading the group really straightforward with the videos and leaders notes. The questions are so well written to encourage ...everyone to answer, whatever their own views on Christianity are. It lead to some great discussions and some fantastic insights in to where these mums were at. Whilst not all of it was directly relevant for mums with very young babies, we could easily adapt the bits about older toddlers and ask what they anticipated things would be like. The mums really enjoyed it and we will be running it again - as an add on at the end of the group, so there is no pressure to stay. I'd also now feel confident to run it as part of our toddler group once that fully reopens.

A good conversation starter that can be taken to any level. This material is thought provoking and relevant for today's parents.
We have just finished using this material with five non-church mums. We ran it after our parent & toddler group. We provided lunch & a creche. They have engaged more openly and positively with it than I could have ever imagined. They are all keen to do more together as a group, & to know more about what the church is about. We have bought 3 copies of the DVD & I'm encouraging church mums to use it in their homes with friends.
