Welcome! I hope you enjoy this look at beautiful, helpful, and faithful living for Christian women.
If you haven’t watched my previous video (Negative World – High Profile Christians Bend the Knee & Embrace the False Woke Gospel), I highly encourage you to do so before you watch this one. I make several references to that content.

Thank you for this video. It was an inspiration and spiritual goals for me to work towards as well to be beautiful, helpful and faithful in aspects of my life.
Hi Kris,
You are welcome! I’m glad it was helpful. 🙂

Thanks for the wonderful encouragement, Sallie. I am also an “older mom” (my oldest was born on my thirtieth birthday; I was 38 when my fourth child was born). I’ve been a Christian for almost 40 years, so I get what you’re saying about having enough experience with life to weigh in on these topics. I just want to say I appreciate the welcoming atmosphere you create. I enjoy sitting around your “online kitchen table” 🙂 Thanks for inviting me!

Hi Cheryl,
I’ve been thinking a lot the past year or two about my experience as an older mom. I’d like to write about that. Personally, I would not recommend it to younger women (for a variety of reasons). I didn’t make a deliberate choice to be an older mom (approaching 40 when Caroline was born). It was simply the way it worked out. But I would generally not recommend it.
I like the idea of sitting around my “online kitchen table” that you shared. That’s how it feels to me when I make these videos. I don’t “see” myself speaking before a big group of people. I “see” myself chatting more with a smaller group of women like leading a Bible study or small group type thing. Interesting!

Hi Sallie!
Thank you for your thoughts! You are so encouraging and helpful to me! I appreciate all the time and effort you put into your site. You make me aware of things going on in the world and changes happening, but you always direct me back to Christ and remind me to put my faith in Him. <3
I'm an older mother too and I heartily agree with your sentiments above! There's a reason that God usually blesses the younger women with children. 😉 I just keep reminding myself that God gave Sarah the strength, so He is able to strengthen me!
Thank you again for sharing your knowledge and wisdom!
It’s great that there are older mom’s that are a part of this Christian community! I am an older mom as well as I had my son at 33 yrs. It is harder being an older mom, but the Lord has given me the strength and grace in the midst of the journey.
You are so right, Kris! When I think back on my time of homeschooling four children and working part time evenings as an older Mom, I can only attribute it to the grace of God! On co op days ( our co op was not one where we could drop the children off) I used to seriously consider the possibility of putting our house on wheels and pulling it behind the minivan. That way I wouldn’t forget the sewing machine, the musical instruments, the science projects, etc. lol
Now that the children are grown, that grace is gone, but God has new grace for new things!
