Listen Later

Is it a waste of money to decorate your home? Or a wise investment? What does it mean to be motivated by pride in our homes? Or to desire to serve our family?

In today's episode, we will take a look at the question of how we can glorify God from within our homes through our decorating, how we set the atmosphere, Bible memorization, and more! I'm really excited about this episode as we dive into some different ways we can create a Gospel-centered home.



Walk with me through what it means to decorate (or no decorate) with the Gospel in mind.We will cover different ways you can set the atmosphere in your home, using Scripture to decorate, setting good patterns and habits within your home (starting with YOU), and more!

So let's dive in!

Book of the Week:
Glimpses of Grace: Treasuring the Gospel in Your Home by Gloria Furman

Gloria is one of my all time favorite authors and her two books: Glimpses of Grace and Treasuring Christ When Your Hands Are Full are both in my top 10 books of all time. Gloria writes from within the reality of homemaking. What it actually looks like when you are burnt out and exhausted from caring for your home each day. But she also has such a powerful way of bringing everything back to the Gospel and how we need to view our home within the scope of eternity. A very powerful book that I highly recommend all women read! You can check it out on Amazon as a print book or on Kindle.
Thanks for Listening!
