 Hey lovelies 🤍 In today’s episode, we’re stepping back into the year 1861 to explore what homemaking looked like then—and why that history can actually comfort (and challenge) us as Christian homemakers today. I’m sharing insights from *Mrs. Beeton’s Book of Household Management* and a few other historical homemaking writings that highlight something our modern world often forgets: homes were never meant to be managed in isolation. Many households relied on shared work, neighborly support, and clear roles—while today we’re often told we should be able to carry everything on our own (and look “put together” while doing it). In this episode, we talk about: • What’s surprisingly timeless: stewardship, responsibility, hospitality, and wisdom in daily life • What’s changed: community, expectations, and the pressure to be “perfect” • How to check our motivation: am I trying to impress the world—or serve God with a grace-filled home? • Why asking for help is not failure (it’s realistic and often faithful) • A gentle nudge to use your lovely things now—not someday • Practical “conservation” rhythms that protect your strength: forethought, simplicity, and finishing one task before starting another We also laugh a little at the old-fashioned quotes, reflect on honoring our husbands with our words, and end with a simple invitation: if you’re longing for community, take one small step today and reach out to someone. Books mentioned: • Mrs. Beeton’s Book of Household Management • A Housewife Writes: What Our Grandmothers Can Teach Us About Making a Home (Amalia Clemen + Laurie Aaron Hird) • The Selected Letters of Laura Ingalls Wilder WOULD YOU RATHER: Would you rather travel to the past or the future? 🤎 Leave your answer in a review, send me a message on Instagram, or email me—I truly love hearing from you.
