Welcome Home! Thank you for coming to A Christian Home and visiting our site today. We seek to be a complete web-resource for your homelife and encouragement. May the LORD bless you as you seek to follow Him and know His ways. May He direct your thoughts, ALL your reading and ALL your web-searches. We
pray
you'll
find
encouragement for
your
home &
family. A Christian Home is dedicated to the preservation and promotion of the Word of God and for the restoration, encouragement and for the Truth, for the strengthening of marriage, family and home. Our purpose for this site remains the same from the beginning: to help you find good things & resources for your home and family. Here you will find hundreds of pages and hundreds of outside links that will instruct and encourage you and to help shine light on the path and strengthen your walk with the LORD. We're A Christian Home because the Word matters. Home matters and marriages and families matter! Relationships matter. Knowledge of the Truth matters, Modesty matters and so much more! But mostly, we have kept this site available because we seek to encourage the goodness and faithfulness of the Lord Jesus in all that we do: that the Word of God be not blasphemed.

for what we don't say, don't link or
sites we don't recommend. These Links are OLD--- MANY MORE or different sites would be/should be included, but I've had no time to update the pages. Please accept my apologies for this.

Great new links and articles found along the way... (I'll put stuff here as I find it)
Q:
Why so many pages of duplicate links? A: The reason for this is because people most often come to this site through a link from another site; so, in order to make known, or make available, all the different resources on our site, we make an effort to reference various links throughout on each page.
Modesty & Femininity & Modest Clothing Links
Do you have questions about femininity & modest dress? More articles & clothing sites have been added! You'll notice we don't link to all "modest clothing" sites. This decision's been made intentionally.
We do not represent all the sellers "modest" clothing that ask to be included on our website.
The ones we post can be honestly recommended to you.

KEGEL!!
Do these exercises routinely...
just remember...
if
you do, and you don't stop, you won't drop.
Try this.
While sitting at your
desk here at the computer... begin to daily
implement several repetitions of
Kegel
exercises - Abdominal & pelvic floor strengthening exercises. Lift and hold--- tight, tight, tight, tight, tight, tight for twenty counts - relax for ten; repeat several times. You won't regret doing these - but, believe me, you will regret it if you don't (especially if you are a mom of many or are in the midst of becoming a mom of many!)

I was looking for material regarding "modesty" from a man's perspective and came across this letter and though most of the men &
women who visit this site are older than
the "girls" this young man
was writing to, his letter is
quite inspirational and timely, though written
a few years ago. I've no idea who he is and so this is not a blanket
endorsement of *any* thing on the site except this letter: A Letter to the Girls I know: Dear Girls...

"Ye
have heard that it was said
by them of old time, Thou
shalt not commit adultery:
But I say unto you, That
whosoever looketh on a woman
to lust after her hath
committed adultery with her
already in his heart.
And if thy right eye offend
thee, pluck it out,
and cast it from thee: for
it is profitable for thee
that one of thy members
should perish,
and not that thy whole body
should be cast into hell."
Matthew 5.27-29

What you read shapes your thinking... make sure what you read is sound material.
Here are our suggestions:
We think the following magazines are the crème de la crème!
Seasons At Home Magazine Recommended by *me!* and by Hope Chest Legacy
"Seasons At Home magazine will be published by Joyous Home, where Theresa and Jessica are a lovely and talented mother-daughter team. Other homemakers will be contributing wonderful ideas and articles with lovely full color pictures. Here is just a peek at a few of the articles that will be in this first issue that will arrive in your box by mid to late October 2007. You will see a lovely article from Hope Chest Legacy in this premier edition too!"
I just received the first issue of this magazine -
and I must say: what a blessing it is and what a
treasure it will be for our daughters one day as they
enter into keeping a home. These magazines are
high quality, with lots of very informative articles and
step by step instructions and photos for projects
of all types. You will want to use these magazines for
future reference. Order HERE

Impersonal realities do indeed exercise over me some kinds of constraint, as does the wind when it constrains me to battle against it or the rain when it compels me to take shelter. But the constraint of which I have been speaking is of a wholly different kind; it is a constraint to be pure-minded and loyal-hearted, to be kind and true and tender, and to love my neighbor as myself. And what could possibly be meant by saying that any reality of an impersonal kind could exercise over me such a constraint as that? I have never been able to see that it could mean anything at all. I have never been able to see how any being that is not a person could possess a moral and spiritual claim over me.

And finally, Dear Sisters...
Whatever I share, I share with you because The LORD has been very merciful to me and He is trustworthy and with the encouragement, provision, blessing and care of my husband: it's "my" work, but together, we bring you this site. It is with thanks and praise to the LORD Jesus... He is my Rock and my Redeemer, He is my Strength, my Source and my Shield. He's brought me through many trials, has carried me through dark days and hopeless seasons---He's given me light and He's given me hope. That's the reason this whole website exists... to share help and hope for women and families... and it's my prayer to inspire and encourage you to be the woman God's designed *you* to be.
The advice given is peer advice and there is no intent to be the "final authority" on any matter shared. Trust the LORD, talk with your husband about anything you read here. I have no intention to be the "last word" --- I do not think I know everything and pray to not come across that way. God bless you in your home. The plate's have been dished up here; please eat what you want and leave the rest. May the LORD fill you.
