Today I am wrapping up Season 25 with the second part of our series on Full Time Homemaking. Last week, Jessica Fisher and I discussed the why, what and how of choosing full time homemaking in Part 1, So You Want to Be a Full Time Homemaker. 

Today, we are are going to discuss the practical outworking of not just being a full time homemaker but how to flourish in your role, even on a limited income.

In This Episode:

  • God’s design for human flourishing and how can you live that out through full time homemaking 
  • 3 common areas that can prevent that flourishing: Expectations, Time & Money
  • Practical solutions to leverage all three for the glory of God and the good of your people and your homemaking
