Do you want to develop stronger family bonds with your husband and kids, but don’t know where to start?
Would you like to create a peaceful, orderly home where your family can thrive, but seem to be spinning your wheels?
Are you trying to navigate life without the benefit of good role models and starting to feel a little lost?
Have you repeatedly tried to live a life of joy and purpose, only to get sucked into a spiral of doubt and anxiety time and time again?
Does all the conflicting marriage and parenting advice touted by modern day culture leave you confused and bewildered?
Do you long for a seasoned mentor a little further down life’s road who’d be willing to point out the potholes and provide practical pointers?
Then you’ve come to the right place!
Welcome, friend! My name is Jennifer Flanders. As a devout Christian, happy wife, homeschool mom of twelve, and grandma of 20 (so far!), I’m well-practiced in minding the things that matter most. And since the Bible charges older women to teach younger women to love their husbands, love their children, and be keepers at home, I have a scriptural mandate to share the things I’ve learned with you.
Loving Life at Home is your go-to podcast for Titus 2 encouragement in marriage, motherhood, and minding what matters most. In it, I’ll teach you how to:
--> nurture your marriage and cultivate a life-long love with your husband
--> communicate with your husband in a way he understands and appreciates
--> raise children you not only love, but enjoy spending time with
--> create a warm, peaceful, inviting home that is a blessing to all who spend time there
--> cheerfully attend to all the sanctifying work that marriage, motherhood, and managing a home entails
--> use your time wisely, looking to God for the grace and strength to fulfill His call on your life
So grab a cup of tea and tune in every Monday morning.. In each 20-minute episode, you’ll get biblical encouragement, actionable advice, and firsthand insights on faith and family gleaned from over 35 years of marriage and motherhood and over 50 years of following Jesus.

EP 88: On Accepting Unchangeables
Each and every one of us has been born with qualities that cannot be altered and into circumstances beyond our control. The question is, how will you approach the unchangeables in your life? Will you learn to accept and live with them (and maybe even appreciate them)? Or will you allow bitterness and resentment over those unchangeables fester in the depths of your heart? The choice you make will have a profound impact on the purpose and contentment you find in life.

VERSES CITED:
1 Peter 5:7 - "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."
Psalm 68:5 - "Father to the fatherless, defender of widows— this is God, whose dwelling is holy."
Matthew 25:15 - "And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey."
1 Thessalonians 5:11 - "Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing."
James 3:14-16 - "But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not be arrogant and so lie against the truth. This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, natural, demonic. For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing."
Genesis 3:19 - "By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.”
James 4:14 - "You do not even know what will happen tomorrow! What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes."
Psalm 90:12 - "Teach us to number our days so that we may apply our hearts to wisdom.”
Psalm 139:13-16 - "For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are Your works, and my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth; Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; and in Your book were all written, the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there was not one of them."
Romans 8:28 - "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
