Sean and I have been working from home for over 10 years now, so I thought I’d share some tips on how we stay productive and feel our best! If your new to staying at home (especially all day with kids), it can turn into a long Christmas vacation- treats and jammies and all- which isn’t bad, but it will certainly get old after 3 weeks! Here are a few basic things we do (in order) to stay healthy and productive at home each day! Hope it helps!
1. Get up early and read your bible, and pray! Put...
“I hope very much that I will have no reason to be ashamed [of the Gospel of Christ]. I hope to honor Christ with my body if it be by my life or by my death. I want to honor Him without fear, now and always.” Philippians 1:20 (NLV)
Do you know the way you care for your body is part of your testimony and can be a form of worship? When we resolve to care well for our bodies as an act of worship and to honor Christ, we instantly become more effective both in this life and for the Kingdom. When...
Something I get asked often is, "What are good vegetarian options?" My son is a vegetarian of four years. So, by trial and error, I've found which products are tasty and which are, well, toss worthy. Today, I'm sharing my favorite vegetarian foods and recipes, all that are tasty, easy, and high in protein.
Beyond the Burger
My son really likes these! When I first discovered them, I gave one to my husband as well. He was sure I'd given him meat. I buy them at Target or Whole Foods.

“So, here’s what I want you to do, God helping you, take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it....
When it comes to healthy eating, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Things can get especially tricky when we’re deluged with information that isn’t true. Today, we’re dispelling five common lies people believe about eating healthy. Have you believed any of them?
Eating healthy tastes bad and is boring!
Celery, and carrots, and dry rice cakes, oh my! If that’s the vision “healthy eating” conjures up for you, you’re not alone! Many people believe that eating healthy means only eating raw veggies for...
“Where there is no [wise, intelligent] guidance, the people fall [and go off course like a ship without a helm], But in the abundance of [wise and godly] counselors there is victory.” Proverbs 11:14 (AMP)
I read a quote once that said, “Successful people surround themselves by successful people.” Basically, it’s paraphrasing today’s scripture passage isn’t it? I used to grossly underestimate the power of mentorship, guidance, and accountability in my life. There’s no two ways about it, it was...
With the fast paced society we live in today, it’s easy to get caught up in the latest quick fix fad or diet. Each one promising FAST results or extreme lifestyle changes, but there’s a reason that they fail. Each type is encouraging an extremist mindset, all or nothing. So while some may work for the short term, most people stop or fail and can’t incorporate their new found way of life as a realistic lifestyle.
But the good news is it has nothing to do with your willpower or willingness to...
“The eye is the lamp of the body. You draw light into your body through your eyes, and light shines out to the world through your eyes. So, if your eye is well and shows you what is true, then your whole body will be filled with light.” Matthew 6:22 (The Voice)
Be careful what your little eyes see! So much of what happens in your mind begins with a simple look. What you look at significantly influences how and what you think. Be diligent to guard your mind. Be very particular about what you...

“Summing it all up, friends, I’d say you’ll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized.
