S2 Ep. 39 Maybe it's the glorious Autumn weather, the impending holiday season or the birth of my two newest grandbabies (numbers 13 and 14): life is so beautiful, if we choose to pause and acknowledge the details that make it so. Our Creator blesses us with small moments of joy, peace and sensory experiences throughout our busy weeks, to ground us and allow us to focus on the joy of everyday living.Enjoying life is not about perfection. Enjoying life is about intention. Life is not about survival. Life is about thriving. Your kids will remember how home felt and how being around you felt, so I encourage you: Don’t miss these opportunities to love your family well.Alexandra says “Life is too short to be a caretaker of the wrong details.” Isn’t this the truth?

S2 Ep. 38 “To be happy at home is the ultimate result of all ambition.” Samuel Johnson. Home is not a transitory place, it is the goal itself. My purpose in life is to restore peace, beauty and meaning in my home, and to encourage other women to cultivate this as well. Most moms today are “Hurry Girls” and choose to overlook the lovely details of life that build a strong culture.Whether it be fresh flowers, baked goods, beautiful designs, crafts, family time, group book readings, small traditions: There are millions of ways to create beauty in our homes.When we invest richness into our daily tasks, life goes from something we have to get through, to something we cherish!

Home is truly one of the most powerful and important places on earth.Many modern women devalue the home and overlook the special moments amidst the chaos of chores, busy schedules and the next mealtime: My mission, as a mom of 11 and grandma to 13 (and soon to be 14) is to help young, likely overwhelmed moms reclaim the sacredness of their home life.

S2 Ep. 36 Elizabeth Elliot, author, speaker and inspiration to many, strikes again in my life! Her first husband, Jim Elliot, was killed in 1956 while attempting to make missionary contact with the Auca people of eastern Ecuador. In the wake of grieving him, she wrote the path of loneliness that talks about the God shaped hole we all have in our souls. Marriage, friends, children or family are never going to fill that space entirely:That is how God designed it. Intentional!When we accept the thing we are trying to run from, that is when God shows up to us in very big ways. Only Jesus can be truly your best friend.Get yourself a copy of The Path of Loneliness: https://amzn.to/435OLfOGet yourself a copy of A Severe Mercy: https://amzn.to/46PRJrfSomething I’m Loving: Magnetic Clasps!

S2 Ep. 35 Halloween… A controversial topic in many Christian circles! What are the origins, the history, the meaning and the point of Halloween? Should we, as Christians, celebrate Halloween?Let’s discuss!This episode is not to condemn anybody’s fun, upright traditions on October 31st, but to simply give an overview of how the Bonins celebrate and the reasons behind our celebrations!If we believe that Jesus conquered hell and death, then why should we have a holiday celebrating hell, death, terror and fear? “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.” 1 John 4:18!The book, Sacred Seasons: A Guide to Center Your Year Around Jesus, is a fabulous introduction to all of the seasons, holidays and traditions we should uphold as Christians!You should also read this book The Gospel Comes with a House Key! It will shift your perspective on how to share the gospel!Something I’m Loving: I am LOVING how all the oils, products, smells, flavors, vibes and temperatures are changing now!

In today’s episode, allow me to encourage you, mom!Allow me to bless you.Allow yourself to rest in what God has called you to.In God’s economy, small acts of dedication and care are enormously valuable.

S2 Ep. 32 This episode is going to be a little different, friend. I’m sharing some thoughts on Charlie Kirk and the legacy he’s left on our country—and why it really got me thinking about our role as wives and moms. At the end of the day, the best way we can impact the world is by starting right at home. Slowing down, making space for family dinners, spending real time with our kids, and keeping the Lord at the center of it all. God gave us our families to steward well, and when we do, we’re building up the church and shaping the future of our country. By slowing down and being intentional, we’re not just shaping our homes—we’re helping shape the future of the church and our nation. I hope this episode can serve as encouragement for all you moms and wives!Happy Household!This podcast is sponsored by the BEST essential oils in the world: Shop Young Living! & Nuuly!
