Netflix Just for Kids for Safe Family Viewing #NetflixKids
This sponsored post on Netflix Just For Kids is written by me on behalf of Netflix. All opinions are still my own. When we lived in Maryland and then here in Alaska, we’ve had a subscription to Netflix for portions of the year. Being able to pick what you want to watch when you [Read On]
Visiting the French Quarter
One of the ‘must do’ items on the boys’ list for when we were in Louisiana was to eat beignets. As they had never been into the French Quarter, we opted to go authentic and visit the original Café Du Monde location by Jackson Square. I could have spent more time seeing everything, especially St. [Read On]
Mother India: Life Through the Eyes of the Orphan
As it is so easy to forget the needs of those we do not see on a regular basis, I like to keep abreast of needs beyond my local community. When the opportunity to review Mother India: Life Through the Eyes of the Orphan arose, I decided it would help my own desire [Read On]
The Promise Box (Seven Brides for Seven Bachelors) by Tricia Goyer
I have to admit a weakness for a good, clean romance book. While I enjoy reading other genres, I find myself gravitating more towards these books at the moment. Or, maybe that’s just in my ‘book review’ life. It’s my love of a good story with romance that had me joining the Launch Team [Read On]

Welcome to the 112nd edition of The Christian Home Magazine, a weekly Blog Magazine posted every Monday.

This is Our Time : An Inspirational Christian Movie
We love to watch movies in our house. This is especially true since we ditched the cable box and have to rely more on DVDs as our internet is metered so that streaming shows isn’t happening often. I was thrilled to have the chance to review a new inspirational Christian movie from Pure Flix, This [Read On]
Cleaning Premium Surfaces with Soft Scrub® Advanced Surface
While we do not have a bunch of new stainless steel appliances or nice counter tops in the house, we do have a stainless steel topped stove. It seems like I can never get it to really shine when it is cleaned. However, thanks to the chance to review the new Soft Scrub® Advanced Surface [Read On]
Homemade Stuffed Crust Pizza
Like many families, pizza is something that graces our table on a regular basis. However, if you ask my boys where they get their favorite pizza, they’ll tell you it’s the homemade ones that I make. Today I’m sharing one of their favorites ~ stuffed crust pizza with pepperoni (and sometimes a bit of ground [Read On]
Wordless Wednesday ~ Park Day Fun in Louisiana
Last month, the boys and I paid a highly anticipated trip to see my parents in Louisiana. Unlike our home in Alaska, it was rather warm (the boys would say HOT) and perfect weather for visiting a few local parks. The photos below are from Heritage Park in Slidell. The playground area is really starting [Read On]
Learning Another Language with Spanish For You
I have to admit that we try to include a foreign language in our homeschool plans. We have tried to incorporate Latin and we’ve made a little better progress with Spanish. However, we often end up setting them aside to focus on the basics when the going gets tough. Thanks to the opportunity to [Read On]

Join Adventures in Odyssey on a Summer of Service (ACTS)
As Christians, we are called to serve. One thing my boys have learned over the past few years is that serving can be fun and fulfilling while helping others. Rather than hearing the “I’m bored” cry this summer, why not plan a summer of service for the family? Thanks to Adventures in Odyssey (Day by [Read On]
Chick-fil-A #FreshMade #Giveaway
One of the ‘fast food’ restaurants that our family loves (and misses from the lower 48) is Chick-fil-A. We love their freshly made chicken sandwiches and I have to admit that my mouth waters seeing photos of their new FreshMade Salads and Wraps. The 3 new premium salads and an improved wrap are all under [Read On]

For the Love of Christian Homemaking

Dial Kids Body and Hair Wash 2+
Let’s face it… kids get dirty! Even with 4 boys in the house, I sometimes am amazed at how dirty they can get. My youngest boys also seem to have an aversion to getting clean, in part because they don’t like a particular soap or shampoo. Thanks to a recent product entering our house for [Read On]
