Homemaker Portrait | Mallori Tinkler
Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. In this episode I am chatting with newbie homemaker, Mallori Tinkler. After working a while as a nurse, Mallori came home full time when her daughter was born. We talk about the challenges of going from 2 incomes to 1 and the importance of a budget that both husband and wife can faithfully participate in. We discuss unrealistic expectations for postpartum life (based on social media comparison) as well as our tendency to overcorrect one way or the other with the “Just a homemaker” and “superwoman” mentalities. This is a lovely conversation filled with all the usual stories of Mallori’s influences, strengths & weknesses, wins, fails, and favorite resources.

Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. Welcome to Season 24 and Year 5 of The Art of Home! 🎉 Do you ever wonder why we make a months-long celebration out of the Incarnation of Jesus at Christmas, but barely give a weekend to commemorate His sacrifice and resurrection from the dead at Easter? What do we do with a holiday that centers around the death and resurrection of our King? How do we integrate that into our homemaking? Today we are going to tackle how we can cultivate an environment of remembrance and rejoicing during this holiest of weeks by declaring with food, words, candles, music, flowers, fabric---whatever resources you have that He suffered and died for our sins AND that He is risen! He is risen indeed!

She’s come to realize that her choice, just like another woman’s choice to be home full time, requires certain sacrifices and adjusted expectations. But she does have a choice, and so do you. We talk about the role of boundaries for keeping work in its proper place, the difference between obligation and options and the fundamental truth that society should exist for the good of the family, not the other way around, because that is how both institutions truly thrive.

Monday Motivation #14 | Homemaker Identity, Part 1
Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. If you’re new to the art of home, you may not be familiar with the 4 pillars of homemaking we’ve been exploring over the past couple of years—Identity, Values & Priorities, Rhythms & Routines, and Community. We have done Deep Dives into the first three and this year we will dive into the final pillar, Community. In preparation for that journey, I wanted to revisit the first three pillars in several series of Monday Motivation episodes. Today, I will be talking about Pillar #1, Identity, specifically where to look and not to look for your identity, as well as how to recognize some common thieves we may be tempted to attach our identity to and why. EPISODE NOTES & LINKS Pillars of Homemaking Deep Dive Episodes Identity with Susan Macias Values & Priorities with Karen Sheppard and Joi Welch Rhythms & Routines with Leslie Lucadou Scripture: Job 1:21 James 1:7 Think About It Questions: Consider losses or hardships you do or might face in your marriage, parenting, role as a homemaker, your physical home, health/wellness, ministry/volunteer work and ask yourself the following questions: How would you react if these were threatened? I've given you some possible scenarios. Note what emotions come up as you consider these hypothetical threats and losses. Then ask yourself, "Why? Why do I feel _______ facing this particular threat?" Once you have your answer, ask again, "But Why?" Keep asking "why" until you get to the heart of the matter. I guarantee you it will always come down to an identity issue. Do you believe God is who He says He is and that you are who He says you are?

Homemaker Double Portrait | Jillian Johnson & Anna Murphy
Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. First, I am chatting with ANOTHER Scottish homemaker, Jillian Johnson. Technically, she was raised in Canada by Scottish parents, she moved to Belfast, Ireland for midwifery school where she met a dashing Scottish medical student who was raised in England. They got married, had a baby, and now make their home in Scotland. We have the most delightful conversation about Jillian’s experience as a newbie homemaker, wife and mom. I adore her sense of humor and found myself smiling and laughing all over again as I did the editing of her segment. Then I chat with Anna Murphy who stayed home for about 5 years with her daughter then taught school for 12 years before returning home full time in 2020. The Lord really changed Anna’s perspective about the importance of homemaking to draw her back home just in time for those crucial years of helping her teen daughter see the value in homemaking. With both of these ladies, we cover all the usual territory of strengths, weaknesses, expectations, fails, wins, resources and more.

Monday Motivation #10 | Piercing the Darkness with Halloween Hospitality
Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. I realize for some believers this holiday is off limits due to their past and or their conscience before the Lord. I respect that because, while we all have freedom in Christ, each one of us should do as the Holy Spirit directs us. If that's you, feel free to skip this episode. For those of you who are on the fence or haven’t really considered how Christians should think about Halloween, I'd like to present one perspective in today's episode. Is this really "the devil's day" and are we violating scripture by handing out candy? It is my prayer that this episode will encourage you to fear not, but rather seek the Lord's will for your family's participation (or not) in Halloween. I am also giving some practical suggestions for fun couples and family costumes as well as my (new) favorite fall candies. 🎃 “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” -John 1:5 EPISODE NOTES & LINKS Fall Favorites: Clean Candy Unreal Coconut Bars YumEarth lollipops and hard candy ChocXO Cups Halloween Hospitality Scripture References Hebrews 2:14-15 1 Peter 5:8 John 1:5 2 Timothy 1:7 Proverbs 19:23 "Halloween and Christians: An Opportunity with Jimmy and Kelly Needham," Family Life Today Podcast, October 4, 2024 Apple | Spotify Newsletter Series on Acts of Courageous Homemaking #1 Be Informed by Trusted Sources Support the show HOMEMAKING RESOURCES Free Weekly Newsletter, Homemaker Happy Mail Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum <a href='https://www.the

Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. I've got TWO great stories of home for you today! First I am chatting with Maryela Soto-Portillo who has been keeping a home for 15 years. Born in Puerto Rico and raised in New Jersey, she now makes a home in Florida with her husband, 2 children, and her mother. Maryela works part time, homeschools her children and has dreams of opening a homeschool co-op to help other busy moms make homeschooling work for their families. Then, I visit with Amanda Faucett who has been keeping a home with husband, James, for 23 years. She just launched her son from the nest and will be launching her daughter in less than 2 years. Amanda and I have a great conversation about living in a somewhat politically divided home. It’s not a topic that comes up often, but it is her experience and she has some great insights to share. I will also be sharing a couple answers from last Monday's question of the week about favorite fiction books and giving you my answer to that question.

Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. Today's episode is a companion to our recent deep dive on the informed homemaker which is all about making sense of what is happening in the world and our culture with eyes of faith through a Biblical worldview lens. Of course going right to the source and studying scripture itself is the best policy, but what about companion resources such as devotionals, Bible focused podcasts, Bible study books, online sermons, other Christian publications, YouTube channels, etc? How to we know who to trust? Is there a way to tell whether or not a preacher or publication is biblically sound? That is what we are discussing today as we look at the example of a group of believers from the New Testament called the Bereans.

Homemaker Culture, as I have experienced it over the past 30+ years, involves claiming small windows of time amidst our busy days to cultivate a rich reading life, religious life, artful life and creative life. This episode will focus on the creative life, with some practical suggestions to help you begin to pursue Homemaker Culture.

Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. "There are homes in which there is nothing remarkable in the way of grandeur or elegance, yet the very atmosphere as you enter it is filled with sweetness like, 'the smell of a field that the Lord hath blessed'. It is the aroma of love, the love of Christ shed abroad in human hearts." ~ JR Miller We have an opportunity, homemakers, to cultivate a particular spiritual and relational fragrance in our homes. Will it be a sweet aroma or an offensive stench? Today I am sharing a little story about the aroma of home, some of my favorite spice mixes and I'm pulling a classic cookbook From My Bookshelf that I think will help you in your homemaking journey.

Homemaker Portrait | Alecia Doty
Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. On to today’s homemaker portrait, I am chatting with Alecia Doty. She was nominated by her friend Tina Bergs. Here’s what Tina had to say about Alecia’s practice of the art of home: "Alecia makes her home a place where children are nurtured in the love of Christ and pointed to what is true, good, and beautiful. She is a welcoming hostess who intentionally uses her home as a place where souls can find rest, and be met with the love of Christ." After spending an hour or so in conversation with Alecia, I can see why Tina gave such a glowing recommendation. Alecia has such great insight into the art of home. She poignantly explains that homemaking is a beautiful, hard, sanctifying, creative adventure; a high and holy calling which, if we allow, God will use to draw us to himself and transform us into the image of Jesus so that the Gospel will be displayed through our homemaking.

I am so excited to finally be talking about the 3rd Pillar of Homemaking, Rhythms and Routines, with my friend and past AoH guest, Leslie Lucadou.

Then we look at motivations (or the why) for establishing rhythms and routines, contrasting the world’s ideas vs what God has to say about our why. Next we talk about 4 rhythms of christian living; worship, rest, work and play—what those might look like and how we can use homemaking to help and not hinder these rhythms.

Kerita worked for the US Air Force for 20 years before retiring and fully embracing her role as full time homemaker and helpmeet to her husband. We talk about her sudden and steep learning curve of become a mom, not to babies, but to teens. She had a very short runway to prepare them to leave the nest as capable young adults and that was a big responsibility. Kerita shares openly how infertility can tempt her to compare to women who have what she doesn’t but that God has taught her that what motherhood looks like is not what she thinks it should look like, but what He says it looks like. I love her perspective on hospitality and how homemaking builds community and she has some fun stories, tips and ideas to share.

Homemaker Portrait | Carly Poulin
Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. In today’s episode I am chatting with in-the-trenches homemaker, Carly Poulin. Carly blew me away on her application when she shared that God used the art of home podcast to draw her to himself and now she is walking with the Lord. I never intended for this to be an evangelistic podcast but it is because we talk about what it looks like to follow Jesus in the midst of laundy and dishes and diapers, and raising toddlers and teenagers, and showing hospitality. The idea that the Creator of the universe meets us in the mundane and gives us all that we need to walk out our faith and glorify Him through the every day work of homemaking is revolutionary in our culture. The stories we tell here about how Jesus transforms our homemaking were literally life-changing for Carly…her words, not mine. So keep that in mind as you listen. Carly is a new believer. She is learning and growing and fighting the good fight….shortly before we did this interview she unexpectedly lost her father and that threatened to shake her brand new faith. But God has been with her and I hope you will join me in praying for Carly’s faith to be strengthened, that she will be a light to her family as she serves them, and that God would bring some Titus 2 women into her life.

Homemaker Portrait | Naomi Fata
Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode. In today’s episode I am talking with In-the-Trenches homemaker, Naomi Fata. She’s been married 16 years and has 3 kids, ages 8 to 13. She homeschools and runs a sewing and alterations business out of her home--she is a very busy lady. We discuss how she has learned/is learning to balance homemaking, schooling and a home business through compromise, firm boundaries and letting go of some expectations. Naomi is passionate about teaching others how sewing can help them make the most of their clothing and home decor resources. Over the years, Naomi realized that this "stay-at-home dream life" she asked God for does not come with ease. It is challenging to manage it all, but she is learning to differentiate between what God has and has not called her to do in each new day. Whether running a home business or not, this principle applies to all of us as homemakers as we seek to thrive in our calling and not be distracted or overwhelmed by all the possibilities before us. I know you will be encouraged and learn something from Naomi's story of home.

I am talking with Betty Hicks who has been keeping a home with husband Dan for 37 years. Betty is a mom, a grandmother, a retired military analyst, a breast cancer survivor and a published author.

We will hear all about that and more in Betty’s story of home. EPISODE NOTES Jan Karon's Mitford Books, a favorite of Betty's and mine!
