Crafting Daily Rhythms That Reflect Your Family’s Priorities - S5, E3
Finding Joy in Your Home
In this episode, we explore what it really means to view homemaking through the lens of the gospel. From endless dishes and laundry to the unexpected trials of daily life, it can be easy to wonder if the work of the home truly matters. But Scripture reminds us that every small act, each meal prepared, story read, or diaper changed, can be an offering of worship when done for the Lord. Join me as I share personal stories, encouragement from Colossians 3, and a reminder that homemaking is more than chores—it is kingdom work.

What Does It Really Mean to Be a Homemaker? - S5, E1
Finding Joy in Your Home
We’re back for Season 5 of the Finding Joy in Your Home podcast! 🎉 In this kickoff episode, I’m diving into one of the most-requested and foundational topics: what does it truly mean to be a homemaker? Whether you’re a stay-at-home mom, a working woman, a student, or somewhere in between, homemaking is something every woman is called to in unique ways. I’ll share my own journey of starting marriage with zero homemaking skills, how God shaped my perspective over the years, and why being a homemaker is less about spotless dishes and more about creating a Christ-centered haven. We’ll...
info_outlineThis past homeschool year was anything but smooth—between hospital stays, moving twice, and navigating postpartum exhaustion, our plans got turned upside down more than once. In this candid episode, I reflect on the highs and lows of our chaotic school year, how we adapted on the fly (including a big shift to online learning), and what lessons we’re taking into the next season.
Plus, I share our full curriculum lineup for the upcoming school year—from language arts and science to our big plunge into Omnibus with our oldest boys. If you’re curious about Master Books, Monarch Online, CTC Math, or how we approach homeschool with eight kids (including two toddlers), this episode is packed with practical insights, encouragement, and a peek into our real-life homeschool decisions.
Whether you're wrapping up your year or just planning ahead, I hope this gives you ideas and freedom for your own journey.
