AQSL 005: Bringing Peace to Your Life and Home

Post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure statement.

I define a cozy life as one that brings greater peace, understanding, joy, beauty, and faith to you and your loved ones. Today we’re going to take a look at peace, the first item on the list.

We’ll look at a definition of peace and the specific parts of our life that it includes. I’ll share five choices we’ve made over the years that have brought greater peace to our home, including one that might surprise you! Hopefully at the end, you’ll be inspired to make some changes that will bring greater peace to your life and home.

    What a lovely podcast to listen to as I am right in the middle of re-organizing our whole house to prepare for the months ahead. Such a great reminder that what I am doing is important and that the weeks I have spent thinking, problem solving and sorting will be worth it.

For 20+ years, I’ve been writing about following Jesus Christ and making choices based on what is true, beautiful, and eternal. Through purposeful living, self-employment, and homeschooling, our family has learned that freedom comes from a commitment to thoughtfully examine all of life and think for yourself.
