I’d love to help you simplify your meal planning. Check out my new menu planning course here.

Blog posts, podcasts, books and much more for your weekend reading and listening. @mferrell

Sharing with you today blog posts, podcasts, videos and much more that I hope will edify you in your walk with the Lord.

To Read:

Do You Exercise Like a Nonbeliever? – @Desiring God

“Countless unbelievers experience and consciously enjoy the gift of exercise, but they do not adore Jesus or have the Holy Spirit. Should there be anything distinct about how a Christian exercises? How do we experience God’s natural gift of exercise in such a way that we benefit spiritually?”

People Aren't Yes-Or-No Answers – @The Blazing Center

“I won’t get to the heart of the matter unless I treat them like people rather than yes-or-no answers. Treating them as people means getting to know them and understanding their pasts, their struggles, their understanding of Jesus, and the numerous other things that have shaped who they currently are.”

9 Things You Should Know About the Winter Olympics – @The Gospel Coalition

The Power of De-Conversion Stories: How Jen Hatmaker is Trying to Change Minds About the Bible – @Canon Fodder

“De-conversion stories are designed not to reach non-Christians but to reach Christians. And their purpose is to convince them that their outdated, naïve beliefs are no longer worthy of their assent. Whether done privately or publicly, this is when a person simply gives their testimony of how they once thought like you did and have now seen the light.”

The Life of Abraham: “Fear Not, I Am Your Shield and Great Reward” – @A Narrow-Minded Woman

“Beautifully, God did not leave Abram just with a command to not be afraid. That is an impossible command to follow without reason. But God gave Abram a reason not to be afraid. God told Abram that He was a shield to him.”

To Listen:

How to Study the Bible – Galatians Bible Study Series #1 – @Women's Hope Project

Ep. 122: What is Christian Maturity? – @Rick Thomas

To Watch:

Leviticus – @The Bible Project – (In case your yearly Bible reading plan has you where I am)

For Your Bookshelf:

The Holiness of God by R.C. Sproul

Graciousness: Tempering Truth with Love by John Crotts

How Should I Exercise Hospitality? by Rebecca VanDoodewaard (only $0.99 on Kindle when I was writing this post)

To Make:

Simple Taco Soup Recipe – @Taste of Home

For Your Home:

My friend Joanna at Faithful Provider has a beautiful Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser that I think you will love. She is offering my readers a 5% discount when you use the discount code MOM247. It’s gorgeous, quiet, I love the color changing LED light option, and my favorite feature is it powers off when it runs out of water! My diffuser is an item I use almost daily and especially in the winter months here. Check out all the details HERE.

To Ponder:

The best antidote for anxiety is frequent meditation upon God's goodness, power and sufficiency… Nothing is too big and nothing is too little to spread before and cast upon the Lord.

~ A. W. Pink

 

do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

~ Philippians 4:6-7

How many times does Sunday morning roll around and How many times does Sunday morning roll around and you find your heart in a state of chaos instead of calm to worship the Lord?  How many Sundays do you arrive at church and realize you haven’t taken the time all week to pray for your pastor or your church family? ⁣

"Home is the true wife's kingdom. ⁣ ⁣ Very lar "Home is the true wife's kingdom. ⁣
⁣
Very largely does the wife hold in her ⁣
hands, as a sacred trust, the happiness ⁣
and the highest good of the hearts that ⁣
nestle there. In the last analysis, home ⁣
happiness depends on the wife. ⁣
⁣
Her spirit gives the home its atmosphere. ⁣
⁣
Her hands fashion its beauty. ⁣
⁣
Her heart makes its love. ⁣
⁣
And the end is so worthy, so noble, so divine, ⁣
that no woman who has been called to be a wife, ⁣
and has listened to the call, should consider any⁣
price too great to pay, to be . . .⁣
 the light,⁣
 the joy,⁣
 the blessing,⁣
 the inspiration, ⁣
of a home. ⁣
⁣
The woman who makes a sweet, beautiful home, ⁣
filling it with love and prayer and purity, is doing ⁣
something better than anything else her hands ⁣
could find to do beneath the skies.⁣
⁣
A true mother is one of the holiest secrets of ⁣
home happiness. God sends many beautiful things ⁣
to this world, many noble gifts; but no blessing is ⁣
richer than that which He bestows in a mother who ⁣
has learned love's lessons well, and has realized ⁣
something of the meaning of her sacred calling."⁣

~ J. R. Miller, "Secrets of Happy Home Life"

Summer is a natural time for me to get off my rout Summer is a natural time for me to get off my routine of menu planning. In the winter, we're more apt to stick to a schedule, but summer brings about a more flexible and changing calendar. ⁣
⁣
I'm sharing some simple tips that have been a help to me and hopefully, they'll help you in planning your summertime meals. Menu planning is a time and money saver, and I don't know about you, but I would sure like to have more time to enjoy my summer months.⁣
