I am chatting with Amanda Turk, mom of 5 and homemaker for 23 years, some of which was done overseas. We talk about how books and head knowledge can be helpful but can also get in the way of learning to trust the instincts God gives us as homemakers and caretakers. Amanda shares the lessons she learned homemaking in a foreign country and why a habit of saying “yes” is crucial to practicing hospitality in her home.
