Monday Motivation #20 | Passion Week in the Home
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!NOTES & LINKSScripture Mentioned: Isaiah 53:5Revelation 13:8General:Your Sorrow Will Turn to Joy: Morning and Evening Meditations for Holy Week | Desiring GodJesus the King: An Easter Devotional by Tim Keller | YouVersion Bible AppResurrection Eggs (DIY)Food:Empty Tomb CookiesTaste & See: Discovering God Among Butchers, Bakers and Fresh Food Makers | Margaret FeinbergFlowers:Easter Lily Care & Meaning | Southern LivingColor:Significance of Color in the Bible | gotquestions.orgMusic:Passion Week PlaylistResurrection PlaylistSupport the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCES Free Weekly Newsletter, Homemaker Happy Mail Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum Newsletter Archive JR Miller's Homemaking Study Guide Audio Newsletter available to Titus 2 Woman monthly supporters SUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Voicemail |Instagram | Facebook | Website | Email Follow | Follow The Podcast Support | theartofhomepodcast.com/support

Monday Motivation #19 | Simple Birthdays are Just Fine
Send me a one-way text about this episode! I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.It’s spring time and at our house that means lots of birthday celebrations. Whether you have a big family or several birthdays in one season, elaborate celebrations and gifts can quickly turn something meant for joy into a burden and a chore. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love a good party with themed decor, food, the works, but I don’t feel the need to pull out all the stops with every celebration, especially when my kids were little. In today’s Monday Motivation, I want to share some of the simple ways we celebrated and continue to celebrate birthdays in our home.EPISODE NOTES & LINKSAll recipes and sewing patterns will be in the next newsletter.

Homemaker Portrait | Heather Price
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 guest was nominated by her daughter, Sydney, who wrote on the nomination form, "My mom has given her entire life to raising me and my six siblings. Five of us were adopted, many with trauma that needed special attention. She has shown strength and dignity through it all. She is an inspiration to me as I am a brand new homemaker and I believe her wisdom will be a blessing to many others." I am so thankful that Sydney nominated her mom, Heather Price, who has been keeping a home full time for 30 years with her husband. They have raised 7 and fostered many more and God has refined Heather through all the challenges of adopting traumatized and special needs kids. We talk about God’s faithfulness, the need to stay flexible, and to constantly remember His unchanging character and what He has done in the past. We cover all the usual ground of expectations, hospitality, fails, wins, and many more aspects of Heather’s homemaking journey over 3 decades.EPISODE NOTES & LINKSOur Favorites for Tim KellerWalking with God in Pain in Suffering by Tim KellerJesus the King by Tim Keller (a walk through the Gospel of Mark), previously published as King's CrossPracticing the Presence of God by Brother LawrenceRecommended Chalk Paint: Annie SloanSupport the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCES Free Weekly Newsletter, Homemaker Happy Mail Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum Newsletter Archive JR Miller's Homemaking Study Guide Audio Newsletter available to Titus 2 Woman monthly supporters SUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Voicemail |Instagram | Facebook | Website | Email Follow | Follow The Podcast Support | theartofhomepodcast.com/support
