Liv Booth is a New England girl living in the high desert of Colorado. On her long ministry travels she has learned to find beauty anywhere and to create hospitable spaces wherever she and her family land.

Called to mother five children and create a home with her husband Brandon, Liv is learning the long lesson of releasing control and expectations while embracing the moment and pursuing peace. She homeschools her children and teaches many of the folksongs she learned growing up to the kids of Cañon City Youth Choirs, which she founded in 2017.

Liv feels most called to the “Inn” element of Signpost Inn, to the powerful image of a lighted window welcoming the tired traveler, to the privilege of hearing people’s stories, and to being the stopping place on life’s journey, wherever the road may be taking them. As Hospitality Coordinator at Signpost Inn, Liv hosts weekly “Signpost Inn Evenings” and arranges food and welcome for Contemplative Prayer Retreats.

Your Kids Don’t Need Your Answers; They Need Your Presence

That’s it. End of article … Just kidding. (But it is kind of that simple.) For example: I went to a fantastic Catholic high school. But I was Lutheran. So I came home with lots of hard questions for my dad. At the end of a long day I might toss out a big one like “Why don’t we call Mary ‘Our Lady’?” and even though he was tired, he’d sit with me at the kitchen table, light a pipe, and we’d talk. I’d watch him blow smoke rings at the ceiling, his Adam’s apple jumping and his attempts always ending in a chuckle and a cough.

Check Your Anchor! Feeling Secure During Disagreements

“Mom! You can’t believe (insert political position)! Do you know where that will lead?! The only reasonable way to see this is (again, political position)!!” Have you had this run-in with your teen, adult child, or friend? Are you thinking of one right now? How does that feel? My hands get shaky; my heart beats faster; I feel adrift! I’m afraid that this relationship will be ruined if we don’t agree right now!

Help! My Kid's Don't Want to Go to Church!

When my little kids fussed at getting ready for church, it was sort of cute, and I felt like a good Mom when they all sat in the pew together, even if they scribbled on attendance cards and took off their shoes. When older (or adult) children explain calmly that they don’t see the need for church anymore, it’s not so cute. It’s common to feel fear, shame, anger, confusion, or resentment at this declaration. Was I not a good Mom? Is this my fault? It feels like an existential threat. Was all my work worth nothing? If church can be tossed out so easily, is it even valuable? Why do I even bother?

Your Kids Aren’t Your Report Card

If an award-winning baker makes the best cake, doesn’t an award-winning Mother produce exceptional children? If I’m any good at this calling (that I’ve set every other ambition aside for), the result of my (literal) labor better prove that I’m good. This is hard for every mother (and father!) I’ve met (including myself, of course). Sometimes “Mothering” feels like most of my identity! My child’s good choice feels like an “A” on my Mom Report Card. Their suffering and sin feel like an “F”.
