To milk OR not to milk? Part 1

April 12, 2022 19:38 - 55 minutes - 50.8 MB

Hi friends! Let's talk MILK shall we? To milk or not to milk? That's the question. I've had the pleasure of milking goats, sheep and cows.

How I started out, what I learned and took away from those experiences & what my goals are for the Alaska homestead in regards to possibly having another dairy animal in our near future!  I...

Spare the Rod, Spoil the Child?

March 30, 2022 20:35 - 58 minutes - 53.9 MB

Parenting is tough, no bones about it. Navigating teenage years and having an adult child brings a whole other level of challenges. In today's show, I hope to encourage you to dig deep & don't give up. Don't grow weary in parenting your children because the Lord has called us to guide them and be their greatest teacher. Parenting is HARD, we must do the hard thing especially in today's culture. Our children desperately need our guidance, reassurance & love...even if they act like they don't ...

The TRUTH shall set you free!

March 09, 2022 18:10 - 57 minutes - 53 MB

Hello my friends! I hope that this show is helpful to you & helps you find the courage to confess your sins to the one that you love or that it offers resources and encouragement for your partner to speak truth to you! Satan loses his grip when the foundation of your marriage is God & truth. It's not easy-in fact confession is really, REALLY hard but your partner deserves truth just as you deserve the FREEDOM that comes from living in truth. Stay BLESSED & encouraged!

Where's all the John the Baptists of today's culture?!

November 17, 2021 19:13 - 49 minutes - 45.3 MB

Where's all the John the Baptists of today's culture? Every day I hear people telling Christians to sit down & shut up, "don't judge," "just love." Friends we are not called to be silent and enable or condone blatant sin. In fact, we are called to do the opposite. Speak TRUTH in love...but speak truth. Without truth, there is no love amen? John the Baptist was beheaded for speaking truth. For calling out King Herod's unlawful marriage publicly! I'm encouraged by the heros of the Bible the bo...

Breast Implants: Why I got them & why I took them out!

October 14, 2021 21:19 - 1 hour - 62.7 MB

Hello friends, sharing my breast implant story with you today! Hoping to encourage you to love the body our good Lord blessed you with & also bring awareness to the risks that come with breast implants. It's been a long road, a journey of physical pain & a lot of wasted money to make me realize that I was beautiful the way God made me to begin with. I hope my story will encourage someone out there that is considering implants or that already has them and is thinking about removing them. Belo...

Courage in a world that's on FIRE!

September 29, 2021 20:04 - 57 minutes - 52.3 MB

Hi friends! Like many of you, my heart is overwhelmed with everything being thrown at us in the culture today. And like many of you, we are facing this ridiculous vaccine mandate & forging the way forward with a religious exemption request EVEN if Joe gets kicked out of the military due to his refusal to take the COVID vaccine. This requires courage, this requires boldness and this requires us to lean into God and always remember that this world is temporary. There is NOTHING man can do to h...

Vaccine mandates: The FDA is deceiving Americans. What you need to know right now!

September 03, 2021 16:41 - 56 minutes - 52 MB

Hi friends, unfortunately the FDA & our government is deceiving the American people with this "FDA approved" vaccine. If you or someone you know is faced with this mandate, I highly recommend that you listen and share this podcast episode. The current Pfizer BioNTech vaccine that is being administered is NOT, I repeat, is NOT as of the date of this episode approved by the FDA. The only Covid-19 FDA approved vaccine is called "Comirnaty" and it isn't even available in the US at this point for...

Masturbation & puberty: The talk you need to have with your kids, before someone else does!

August 13, 2021 13:21 - 57 minutes - 52.6 MB

Hi friends! Today we're going to talk about puberty & masturbation. Because it needs to be talked about. Puberty is a reality that every one of us has faced & each of our children will encounter as well. Masturbation is also something that 9/10 kids will encounter or at least hear about from the culture that surrounds them.  It's imperative that parents stop hiding behind the public school system to educate their children on these topics. Why? Because gone are the days when schools teach an...

Marriage: Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

June 28, 2021 18:27 - 40 minutes - 37.2 MB

Joe had an unexpected deployment with the Coast Guard & has been gone for almost a month. I'm over here reminiscing on all of the separations we've had with the military & how difficult they can be. But I'm also over here grateful for this little reminder of just how much I love him & miss him so when he's gone! Absence truly does make the heart grown fonder. Today's show is just a gentle nudge to remind you to love your spouse well. Give them an extra hug or hold them for an extra minute ...

PORN. Our journey & road to recovery.

June 28, 2021 18:14 - 59 minutes - 54.4 MB

Let's talk PORN, shall we? Sexual addiction is a real thing. Our culture embraces & encourages acts of sex that are not within God's design for sex or marriage. Nobody wants to talk about it. They're too embarrassed or too ashamed. And if you dare to say that it's wrong, you will be labeled an uptight, Bible thumping Christian that's insecure about yourself. I'm here to tell you that the enemy would love nothing more than for us all to rot away in our sin...alone. We must not be silent on t...

Salt & Light: Finding strength to lead in your home!

June 28, 2021 17:50 - 57 minutes - 52.5 MB

Today we're talking about what the Bible says about being the salt & light. What does that mean anyway? How can we be the salt & light not only in our culture but most importantly in our homes? It all starts at home. Sometimes it can be a lonely place, when you feel that you're the only one that is pursuing a relationship with Christ & when you're trying to keep him & his word alive in your home. But today I want to encourage you, you're not alone! And even when it feels like no-one is watc...

Why we homeschool & always will!

June 28, 2021 17:27 - 58 minutes - 53.8 MB

In today's episode, I'm going to share with you WHY we homeschool. We're going to talk culture, education, sexualization, God...and so much more! I'm sharing my raw, unfiltered thoughts on why we homeschool & will never allow our son to attend public school again. If you're considering homeschooling, I want you to know, YOU are not alone. I will be your homeschooling mama friend! You can do this. There is no one better qualified to educate your children than you! 1. As I promised in today'...
