I have had so many thoughts since election day, and I wanted to share them with you, not just to tell you what I think but to hopefully help you process the magnitude of what’s happened over the last four years so we can all be encouraged and wiser moving forward.

Clothing is not neutral, but how do we avoid becoming prideful modesty police on the one hand, and victims of the fashion industry on the other—and humbly dress in a way that honors Christ?
I hope you'll join me for this conversation with Scott Brown!

There is a lot of discussion right now surrounding vaccines and their safety and effectiveness. My husband and I questioned and did our research over 30 years ago.
Today I’m going to tell my story, and it’s one I’ve never told before. Our daughter, Jenna, is also joining us and telling her story as well.

Religious Statement Against Vaccinations:
1 Corinthians chapter 8 and Romans chapter 14 both instruct Christians not to violate their consciences. These chapters teach that to do something that feels wrong to you or cannot be established as objectively wrong, is wrong for the person who believes it to be so. The combination of societal pressure, politicization, fetal cell lines used in vaccine development, unusual timelines and truncated testing, and legal protections offered to vaccine manufacturers insulating them from lawsuits in the event of injury all come together to make the receipt of this vaccine unconscionable for me. That being the case, to get the vaccine would itself be a violation of the Christian teaching about protecting one's conscience."

Have you ever wondered if you are creating a healthy family culture in your home?
Today are trying something a little bit new. I’ve invited Wes Johnson who has recorded many episodes with me, to record 2 episodes per month that invite husbands to listen in with their wives. He will be covering relevant, relatable content that will give you the tools you need as a couple in family life, marriage, etc.
Some episodes will be more directed toward the men. I hope you’ll encourage your husbands and even your sons to listen in and grow as men of God and leaders or future leaders of their homes.
Please let us know what you think about the episodes with Wes!

Do you crave people’s love and approval? Do you dread their rejection or mistreatment? Although we don’t always realize it, many of our lives—and identities—are dangerously contorted around such longings and fears. Today we are going to find healthy, biblical ways to overcome these fears.
Here are some questions we will tackle in this episode:
Why is the fear of man such an easy trap to fall into and why can it wreak so much havoc in our lives?
How can we tell the difference between being considerate and thoughtful versus living from a place where we fear man?
What are some of the warnings in scripture about fearing man and why do you think it’s so important to heed them?
How do we know when we are living in the fear of man?
Can you define co-dependency and why can it be so tempting? How can we tell if we are co-dependent?
What biblical remedy do we have as believers that can help us live in freedom from fear of man?

Today I want to address the issue of busyness. I think among homeschool moms, it’s especially prevalent because we want to make sure that we aren’t failing our kids, so we often turn to activities to hopefully “fill in the gaps”.
As a culture we idolize busyness. It can make us feel important, like we have something valuable to offer. Everyone wants and needs to feel like they matter, like they have something to bring to the table. But is this a wise way to find that?
There is nothing wrong with having a full life, but it's good to check in and make sure that we are keeping a healthy perspective.Resources mentioned in this episode:

We always want to see our kids reach an appropriately healthy amount of independence as they move into adulthood, but for those of us with special needs kids, this process can be more challenging and time-consuming than we may have anticipated.
In the last episode, Peggy Ployhar joined me to discuss ways to engage our autistic kids in learning. Today she will share what she believes is important in helping our autistic young adults move toward more independence.
