Monday Motivation #47 | Acts of Courageous Homemaking; Be Informed Feb 02, 2026

Show notes

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.

Homemaker Portrait | Pam Stockdale Jan 28, 2026

Show notes

Send me a text about this episode!

I am chatting with seasoned homemaker of 45 years, Pam Stockdale. 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.

Send me a text about this episode!

Join me for the first Homemaker Portrait of 2026. I'm chatting with In-the-Trenches homemaker, Colleen Rockwell, about homemaking, homesteading and homeschooling. After working many years as a full-time nurse, Colleen left her job to stay home with her 3 children. They moved to a more rural area, got some animals, started homeschooling and haven't looked back.

Colleen admits, "My biggest challenge was, and still is, running my home smoothly, learning the best systems to clean, cook, and preserve food." We cover all of this and more in her story of home. Be sure to listen till the end for this episode's emoji. :)

Monday Motivation #45 | Homemaker Culture in Winter: A Time for the Makers Jan 19, 2026

Show notes

Send me a text about this episode!

Historically, for homemakers, winter was not a time of inactivity, but of different activity; making and mending, close to the hearth, to prepare for the busier days of spring, summer and fall.

Today I want to share some ideas for cultivating your soul, mind and skills through the practice of winter homemaker culture.
