    36|Intentional Motherhood: How to Build Lasting Bonds With Your Kids Without Screens.
    Oct 22 2026
    FREE Peaceful Home Blueprint: https://homemaking-with-jesus-newsletter-91812.getresponsesite.com/ Are you constantly worried that you aren't spending enough time with your kids? In our fast-paced culture, parents often feel overwhelmed trying to do it all, leaving us asking, "Am I doing enough?" But emerging research shows that when it comes to child development and strong family bonds, quality matters far more than quantity. In this episode, we tackle the pressure of creating "picture-perfect" family moments and look at why focused, intentional, and engaged time makes the biggest lasting impact on your child's life. We aren't talking about planning expensive vacations or trips to amusement parks. Instead, we dive into the beautiful, quiet "in-between" moments—like car rides, grocery shopping, running errands, or simply doing chores together. We explore how screen-free emotional connection directly impacts early childhood brain development and look at what God has to say about daily discipleship in Deuteronomy 6:6-7 and Psalm 127:3-5. You don't need a 24-hour block of free time to make a difference; you just need to be fully present. Learn how choosing intentionality today will leave a powerful generational impact on your children! Grab your tea or coffee, Bible, and notebook and let's grow together.

    Scripture Mentioned:

    • Deuteronomy 6:6-7
    • Psalm 127:3-5 and Deuteronomy 6:6-7

    Research Mentioned:

    Quality Time or Quantity Time? What's More Important.

    30|Biblical Respect in Marriage: Unpacking 1 Peter 3:1-6 for the Christian Wife
    Oct 1 2026

    What does the Bible truly say about respect and submission in a Christian marriage? Have you allowed yourself to be disobedient to Gods design for family?

    In todays episode, we dive deep into 1 Peter 3:1-6 to unpack God's design for the Christian wife...and let me tell you, it's not you sitting in a corner staying quiet.

    Today the phrases like "submission" and a "gentle and quiet spirit" are misunderstood, weaponized, or dismissed by modern culture. But when we look at the true scriptural context, Peter isn't calling women to weakness - He is calling them to a position of influence - a position of profound spiritual strength, dignity, and trust in God.

    Tune in as we discuss:

    • The Biblical Definition of Respect: How a wife’s unconditional respect acts as a powerful witness for the gospel, even in an unequally yoked marriage.
    • True vs. False Submission: What Peter actually meant by a "gentle and quiet spirit," and why it has nothing to do with being silenced or erased.
    • Practical Applications: how to build up your husband biblically and practice healthy, Christ-centered communication that leaves a spiritual impact in your home.
    Whether you are a newlywed looking for daily devotionals for Christian couples, navigating a season of marital friction, or simply wanting to build a Christ-centered marriage, this episode offers the scriptural foundations you need to thrive. Grab your tea or coffee, Bible, and notebook and let's grow together.

    Scripture Mentioned:

    • 1 Peter 3:1-6

    Take Action:

    1. Implement the 3 Step Action Plan
    2. Study 1 Peter 3:1-6
