Join me for this discussion with my friend, Karen Sheppard, about the power and importance of words in the home. We begin by laying some ground work about why words are important in the home then we explore what we are calling the cycle of words; that is words we take in, words we hold onto and words we pour out.

Now, about today’s interview….I am talking with newbie homemaker, Jeanette Rath. I have known Jeanette for many years, served with her in worship ministry watching her blossom and grow into a delightful young woman. In this conversation we talk about Jeanette’s experience of learning to keep a house while managing some physical challenges. She is learning that rest isn’t earned but is a gift from our good God.

To kick off Season 7, I’m chatting with my friend, Gwen Cunningham, about her 36-year practice of The Art of Home. Gwen worked as a social worker and group home supervisor while keeping a home with her husband, Paul ,who taught high school. Together they raised 3 kids and just recently gained another adult child in Paul’s daughter, Jen who sought out her birth father about 4 years ago. God is telling an AMAZING redemptive story through them which Gwen graciously shares with us in this interview. Besides that, she has so much wisdom to impart, the kind that comes with years of experience and it is my honor to share with you Gwen’s story of home.

Join me for this "in the trenches" homemaker portrait of my friend, Lana. While we at AoH define the "in the trenches" homemaker as one who is 10+ years into her journey with lots to manage in a busy household, Lana is very open about her time in the trenches of struggling to "love every minute" of parenting and homemaking. We talk about what to do with that unrealistic expectation.  Lana is also a gifted photographer who specializes in newborn, family and branding portraits and she shares some tips to improve everyday photos.

We are kicking off Season 6 with our very first "Newbie" Homemaker Portrait. We are chatting with my good friend, Christine, about her experience in keeping home with her husband, Luke, for the past 5 years. Christine may be a newbie, but this conversation is rich with reflection on hospitality, cooking, identity and the sacredness of home.
