    Thinking the Best of Others: A Biblical Approach to Love and Grace

    It's so easy to assume the worst about others—to misread a friend’s words, question someone’s motives, or let suspicion take root in our hearts. But 1 Corinthians 13:7 reminds us that love “believes all things” and “hopes all things.” What does that look like in daily life? It’s not about ignoring wisdom or discernment, but about extending grace, choosing trust over doubt, and reflecting the love of Christ in how we think about and respond to others. In this episode, we discuss why believing the best matters, why it’s often difficult, and how we can live this out in marriage, friendships, parenting, and church life. There’s freedom in choosing grace over suspicion, and it builds trust and unity in our relationships. My prayer is that this conversation encourages all of us to ask the Lord to shape our hearts to reflect His love more fully.

    Bringing Order to Your Day: The Benefits of a Brain Dump and Daily Plan

    As Christian homemakers, wives, and mothers, our days are often filled with countless responsibilities, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. In today’s episode, we’re diving into the practice of a brain dump—a simple tool that can help clear the clutter in our minds and refocus our hearts on what truly matters: serving the Lord and our families. We’ll also discuss how to pair this with a reliable task management system, enabling us to steward our time and responsibilities more effectively.  As we walk through these practices together, let’s remember that our worth isn’t measured by our productivity or how perfectly we manage our homes. Our true worth is found in Christ alone. These tools are here to help us be faithful stewards of the time God has given us—not to strive for an impossible standard of perfection.  Don’t forget to check out the free PDF handout that goes along with this episode to help you get started!

    Wisely Navigating Our Technology

    In today’s world, our smartphones have become almost indispensable. They keep us organized with calendars, to-do lists, and reminders. They keep us connected with family and friends through calls, texts, and social media. They entertain us with games, music, podcasts, and videos. However, today’s episode isn’t about getting rid of our smartphones; it’s about using them in a way that aligns with the gospel. Matthew 10:37 tells us that whoever loves anything more than Jesus is not worthy of Him. Our first desire must be to be wholly devoted to Jesus, ensuring that our smartphone use reflects that devotion. We need to be mindful of how our phones impact our spiritual lives, making sure they enhance rather than hinder our walk with Christ. We’re going to walk through how we can bring our use of technology back to the gospel, prioritizing our relationship with Jesus above all else. Head over to ThankfulHomemaker.com for full show notes on all the links and resources mentioned in today's episode.  Grab the Free PDF on technology mentioned in the episode in the Free Library 50+ Things to Do Instead of Scrolling Social Media EP 33: Is Your Smartphone Changing You?  RESOURCES: Join Thankful Homemaker for access to the Free Library of Resources Follow ThankfulHomemaker on Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest & Instagram Patreon Support Join the Thankful Homemaker Facebook Group Subscribe to the Podcast on Your Favorite App  Online Courses & Printables Advertise/Sponsor the Podcast Thankful Homemaker Merchandise Buy Marci a Cup of Coffee xo
