I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.Well, we are moving right along in our Acts of Courageous Homemaking Series and I have a new installment for you today. I am addressing our tendency to worry. The Bible has a lot to say about anxiety, fear and worry; giving us practical help in a world that seems intent on stoking our fears so it can sell us their solutions. Whether it's a political agenda, a fool proof weight loss plan or an apocalyptic survival kit, solutions to our worst fears are hocked on every corner of the internet.So, are you buying it; or will you intentionally opt out of panic culture, settle your heart in the promises of God and change the world from your kitchen table? NOTES & RESOURCESOther Episodes in this Series:MM #46 Acts of Courageous Homemaking | Our FoundationMM #47 Acts of Courageous Homemaking #1 | Be InformedMM #48 Acts of Courageous Homemaking #2 | Keep the Home Fires BurningMM #49 Acts of Courageous Homemaking #3 | Be Salty, Stay LitScripture in this Episode:John 16:33, “In this world you will have trouble, but take heart, I have overcome the world" Matthew 6:27, 33, 34 ~ Jesus on worryProverbs 31:27 ~ Be PreparedPhilippians 4 ~ Rejoice Always!

I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.In this final long form episode of our winter 2026 season, I am presenting a portrait of a single homemaker, Brittany Shepard, who has been keeping a home as a single woman for many years.Though being single in her 40s is not what she expected, she has learned to see the unique value and beauty of the life God has given her right now. Brittany is, by nature, a storyteller and story keeper. She loves filling her home with family heirlooms and vintage treasures, so much so that her passion has grown into a flourishing side business called The Sentimental Decorator. Whether she's gathering women around the shared love of story-keeping or gathering family and friends around her dinner table set with treasured dishes, Brittany understands how to leverage the home and her singleness to bring people together and foster a place of welcome and belonging for whomever God puts in her path.NOTES & LINKSConnect with BrittanyWebsite | thesentimentaldecorator.comInstagram | @brittanyshepardThe Sentimental Twist Podcast | apple | SpotifyMIL/DIL Relationships SurveyFull Episode Notes including Brittany's Signature Dish will be on the Blog. theartofhomepodcast.com/blog > search "Brittany Shepard"Support the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCES Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum Newsletter Archive JR Miller's Homemaking Study Guide SUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Voicemail |Instagram | Facebook | Website | Email Follow | Follow The Podcast Support | theartofhomepodcast.com/support **Buy | as an Amazon affiliate, AoH receives a small commission at no extra cost to you when you use our links to purchase items we recommend

I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.We are at the half-way point of our Acts of Courageous Homemaking series today. We've discussed how God's sovereignty is the foundation for our courage. We looked at the importance of being informed and how to find trustworthy sources.And last week we talked about keeping the home fires burning; that is homemaking as an act of resistance and defiance of the enemy in a spiritual war zone. Today I'm going to talk about the impact we have as homemakers not just in our homes but on the culture as a whole. While the modern day Babylon we inhabit may cause us to want to hide away, we still have a call as Christians to stay salty and be lit.NOTES & RESOURCESMore in this SeriesMM #46 Acts of Courageous Homemaking | Our FoundationMM #47 Acts of Courageous Homemaking #1 | Be InformedMM #48 Acts of Courageous Homemaking #2 | Keep the Home Fires BurningOriginal Article with FootnotesScripture Referenced in Episode Daniel 1-6Jeremiah 28-29Jeremiah 29:4-7 (Settle Down in Babylon)Jeremiah 29:11 (God's plans for you)Matthew 5:1-6 (salt, light, lamp stands and hill tops)Philippians 4:8, Ephesians 2:12, Colossians 4:6 (how to be salty and stay lit)Support the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCES Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum Newsletter Archive JR Miller's Homemaking Study Guide SUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Voicemail |Instagram | Facebook | Website | Email Follow | Follow The Podcast Support | theartofhomepodcast.com/support **Buy | as an Amazon affiliate, AoH receives a small commission at no extra cost to you when you use our links to purchase items we recommend

Then we jump into a brand new homemaker portrait.I am chatting with Jazmine Wyland who is making a home with Matthew, her husband of 2 years, and their 17-year-old foster son. Jazmine shares her journey of the past 10 years beginning when she left home to live in her pastor's family's basement apartment, through becoming a newlywed with BIG expectations and idealized visions of home that were immediately challenged by the reality and unpredictability of married life. Jazmine's story is a beautiful reminder that home isn't found in perfect homemaking, but rather in present homemaking. That is, in being flexible, intentional and resourceful to create an atmosphere and a space where you and your people feel at home and can connect with one another whatever your present circumstances.NOTES & LINKSFull show notes on the blog, theartofhomepodcast.com/blog > search "Jazmine Wyland".Mother-in-Law/Daughter-in-Law Relationship Survey, https://forms.gle/TMchcyYD7DM7vawD8The Homemaker's Journal Magazine News and Updates, theartofhomepodcast.com/subscribeSupport the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCES Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum Newsletter Archive JR Miller's Homemaking Study Guide SUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Voicemail |Instagram | Facebook | Website | Email Follow | Follow The Podcast Support | theartofhomepodcast.com/support **Buy | as an Amazon affiliate, AoH receives a small commission at no extra cost to you when you use our links to purchase items we recommend

I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.In a world of hot takes and subjective partisan media it is very easy to become goaded or feel defeated by the inflammatory stories, reels and    “reporting” that floods our screens day after day. How can we responsibly be informed about what is happening in our nation and around the world without become inflamed, apathetic, or isolationist? It starts by being the gatekeeper of your own mind and home like the Bereans who tested everything, even Paul's teachings, against the truth of God's Word. Then by cultivating characteristics of an informed homemaker and seeking out trusted sources.These are the steps covered by The Art of Home's resources released in the fall of 2024 just before the last presidential election. Today's Monday Motivation complies the top takeaways of those resources.NOTES & LINKSRelated Art of Home EpisodesHomemaking Deep Dive | The Informed Homemaker with Isa Ryan, S21, E3Monday Motivation #8 | Be a Berean; Guard the Gates of Your Mind & Home, S21, E4Monday Motivation #46 | Acts of Courageous Homemaking; Our Foundation, S27, E5FULL SHOW NOTES WITH ALL RESOURCE LINKS: theartofhomepodcast.com/blog search "MM47"Be Our Guest! I'm looking for guests for our Spring 2026 season.

Pam was nominated by her daughter, Kristen Howard, who was a guest on The Art of Home several years and ago and who has written a few pieces for our newsletter. Pam is genuine, forthright and her love for her husband, home and family is only outshined by her love for Jesus. We talk about her whirlwind romance/courtship and engagement with Jim…believe me , you've never heard one quite like theirs! Then we cover their time as traveling evangelists, horse trainers, ranchers and even airplane owners spanning 45 years of married life as well as Pam's reflections on how being raised by her widowed father and some influential women in her life shaped the homemaker she became. Through it all, God has bent His ear time and again to Pam's prayers and provided answers to questions she didn't even know to ask, because He is that good. His provision has allowed Pam & Jim to "live loud and wide open," staying rooted in the things that matter most. RESOURCES & LINKSShow Notes blog post with Pam's biscuit recipe! theartofhomepodcast.com/blog search "Pam Stockdale"Pam's Book: Snapshots: Moments Captured in a Flash Be Our Guest! I'm looking for guests for our Spring 2026 season.

Today, we kick off a new year on The Art of Holiness with a conversation amongst ourselves* about evangelism. These seminary students did a FABULOUS job thinking through what it means to evangelize in the 21st century, and their conversation will be the first of several this semester on the topic. Glad to be back, and glad you're back with us. * This semester, "us" includes Brandy Lee and Katherine Reiley. Our good friend, Taylor Williams, has concluded her time on AoH. We will miss having her solid voice among us, but thank God for all the good he is generating in her life.

We are continuing our Advent Reflections series with two articles on the second theme of Advent, peace, written by homemakers just like you. These two articles are meant to encourage you to reflect on our Prince of Peace, Jesus. His "peace that passes all understanding" makes a difference in your day to day homemaking because it is a peace not dependent on circumstances.  In the first article, Peace, Sarah Beaugh shares how Christ's peace sustained her through the long months of her husband's unemployment.  And in Experiencing Peace in the Season, Naomi Fata gives some very practical and actionable steps to "enter the peace of the season, rather than feeling dragged through the season."NOTES & LINKSRead these two reflections in full over on the blog @ theartofhomepodcast.com/blog, search "Advent Peace".FREE Daily Advent GuideConnect with Sarahwebsite | sarahbeaugh.cominstagram | @sarah.beaughConnect with Naomiwebsite | naomifata.netinstagram | @naomifataSupport the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCES Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum Newsletter Archive JR Miller's Homemaking Study Guide SUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Voicemail |Instagram | Facebook | Website | Email Follow | Follow The Podcast Support | theartofhomepodcast.com/support **Buy | as an Amazon affiliate, AoH receives a small commission at no extra cost to you when you use our links to purchase items we recommend

She is so wise, funny, and really, she's an open book. She candidly shares her struggles to accept and adjust to life in a 700 square foot home with 5 girls and one bathroom. Though God blessed them 2 years ago with a larger home, Jenny values her time in the tiny house because she learned so much about contentment and creative homemaking there. She fiercely defends the value of homemaking to anyone who will listen, but most importantly to her girls and she is training them not just in the practical skills of the home but in valuing the work of the homemaker. We cover all the usual ground of strengths, weaknesses, influences, wins, fails and more. NOTES & LINKSFor Full Show Notes, including Jenny's favorites and Signature Dish, go to theartofhomepodcast.com/blog and search "Jenny Nanninga"Connect with JennyEtsy (for Nature Group Start Up Guide and more!)Instagram @bloom.wild.schoolhouseArticles in Focus on the Family and BrioThe Joyful Life articlesBloom Wild Girls, Podcast for Tween & Teen Girls | Apple | Spotify | InstagramMentioned in this EpisodeBooks: A Lantern in Her Hand by Bess Streeter Aldrich Mother Carey's Chickens by Kate Douglas WigginPower Paste Grout CleanerFREE Advent Guide: theartofhomepodcast.com/christmasSupport the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCES Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum Newsletter Archive JR Miller's Homemaking Study Guide SUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Voicemail |Instagram | Facebook | Website | Email Follow | Follow The Podcast Support | theartofhomepodcast.com/support **Buy | as an Amazon affiliate, AoH receives a small commission at no extra cost to you when you use our links to purchase items we recommend

After both of their first marriages dissolved due to abuse and unfaithfulness, Caitlin and Seth feel immense gratitude to God for this 2nd chance at a redemptive marriage, that is, a marriage built on God's good design for living together as a family. I have found another thrifting soul sister in Caitlin and we chat about our recent best thrift finds to kick off this great homemaking conversation. Caitlin loves her family, she loves homemaking and she is passionate about infusing all of her life with her love for Jesus, something that comes out loud and clear in this interview.NOTES & LINKSAll Show Notes + Recipes at theartofhomepodcast.com/blog, search "Caitlin McCormick"Deep Dive Identity with Susan MaciasMM #14, Homemaker Identity, Pt 1MM#15, Rehab For Your Heart, Identity Pt 2Invade by WatermarkRECIPE EXCHANGEGet recipes, make friends & support The Art of Home!

This episode is part of an emphasis we're making this fall on the Bible. Dr. Jennifer Holloran is president and CEO of The American Bible Society (the first woman to hold the this lead role in its 209 year history). Dr. Holloran has a long history in bible advocacy, having spent 22 years at Wycliffe Bible Translators USA and served on all kinds of boards and with nonprofit organizations that champion Jesus and his Word. I'm honored that she's taken time to be with us at AoH to talk about a growing theme in this fall's Art of Holiness library … the Word of God for the people of God. 

Dr. Instone-Brewer received his PhD from the University of Cambridge, where he specialized in early rabbinic literature. Today he is a Baptist minister in the UK who served for twenty years as a research fellow at Tyndale House in Cambridge, He is the author of lots of books and articles, including Divorce and Remarriage in the Bible (which my friend Gordon Spivey recommends) and also The Jesus Scandals, Moral Questions of the Bible, and Science and the Bible. He has helped develop a solid Bible app called STEPBible -- one more way the academy is shaping the practice of ordinary Christians, especially as they engage scripture. Oh, and Dr. Instone-Bridges is on the NIV translation team … which totally fascinates me and is the reason I asked him to join us on AoH.

Today's conversation with Dr. Joe Dongell is part two of a discussion about holy love. Listen for part one on the October 21 AoH episode. Joe, as he prefers to be called, is part of the team at  Asbury Theological Seminary, where he serves as Professor of Biblical Studies. Dongell has several books to his credit, including a commentary on the gospel of Mark (must-read) and a small but packed book called The Most Excellent Way, at seedbed.com. Brilliant and faithful and easy to listen to … if you like thinking deeply about biblical concepts, you'll love this one!

In today's episode we kick off a new project for 2025. I'm combining mentoring with podcasting, with the hope that we might all work together to raise up three women into spiritual leadership while we all enjoy the same amazing conversations we've grown used to at AoH. Want to learn how it all fits together? Listen to this episode! 

In this final episode of 2024, Pierce returns to AoH to chat with Carolyn about her election to the role of Bishop in the Global Methodist Church. AND!... Carolyn shares a new series coming in January, 2025. Listen all the way through to get to the good stuff!

My brilliant and beautiful friend Sandy is on AoH for the third time with this episode, making her the most interviewed (and also the most listened-to) of our guests. We love Sandy Richter! This time, she is talking about Deborah the prophet, subject of a newly released study in the Epic of Eden series. Professor at Westmont College, Dr. Richter is an OT scholar and an epic (pun intended) story-teller. You'll love this episode!

This conversation is close to my heart because these are people I dearly love. Laura Curry is a sister in the faith who has a beautiful story of recovery and redemption. Joining me in this interview is my dear son-in-the-faith, Christopher Goss (who also happens to be the artist responsible for the theme music on AoH). There's a lot of meat here for those hungry to know more about how the 12 steps work.  

I love introducing you to very cool people I know, and Max and Jim are among the very coolest. Max served as a pastor in Florida and Hawaii for 26 years prior to becoming president and CEO of TMS Global. We've heard from him before on The Art of Holiness so go find that podcast so you can learn about his book, Focusing My Gaze, and his podcast called Brilliant Gaze. Max is stepping down from TMS and Jim Ramsey is stepping up. Jim and his wife, Shawn, served in Kazakhstan for 10 years before joining the staff of TMS, and has trained and mobilized who knows how many cross cultural workers over the years. He has a passion for training and sending people into the world to share the good news, and he also has a passion for partnership. It is a joy to have these two good friends on AoH for a great conversation about missions, transitions and life. 

Suzanne Nicholson is a professor at Asbury University. She received her Ph.D. in New Testament Studies from the University of Durham in England, an M.Div. at Asbury Theological Seminary, and a B.A., magna cum laude, in journalism from the University of Minnesota. Dr. Nicholson is an elder in the Global Methodist Church, and in this podcast she talks to us about how Wesleyans read the Bible. Its a great conversation, and includes Bob Kaylor, a new cohost for AoH. Thanks for listening!

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.We will start with a brief review of the 4 Pillars of Homemaking, then spend some time defining rhythms and routines-talking about the difference between the two and giving some examples of each. 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. Finally we end with a few pitfalls to avoid when establishing rhythms and routines.EPISODE NOTESShow Notes | theartofhomepodcast.com/blogAllison's Update Recipes | Subscribe to Homemaker Happy Mail, or for future reference check Newsletter Archive and search this episode titleRelated Resources: Redeeming Your Time by Jordan RaynerHabits of the Household; Practicing the Story of God in Everyday Family Rhythms by Justin EarleyMargin: Restoring Emotional, Physical, Financial and Time Reserves to Overloaded Lives by Richard SwensonEvery Moment Holy; New Liturgies for Daily Life (book 1 of 3) by Douglas McKelveyRELATED EPISODESPillars of Homemaking Deep Dive | IdentityPillars of Homemaking Deep Dive | Values & PrioritiesHomemaker Portrait | Leslie LucadouHomemaking Deep Dive| Wellness with Leslie LucadouBE OUR GUEST (OR NOMINATE A FRIEND) closes April 5, 2024Apply YourselfNominate a Friend NEW!!

This is a special episode. Its just Pierce and Carolyn, talking about the last three years of podcasting together, and about the nature of transitions. This will be Pierce's last episode on AoH. The podcast continues after this week with Carolyn, some occasional co-hosts and a fresh focus on Spirit-filled Methodism.  So much gratitude for Pierce and his idea to do this together ...
