Season 1 Episode 12 "Keepers at Home"


This episode is about the Biblical importance of having a keeper at home mom. Our sweet friends join us for this episode! 

"Emily Sneed’s goal was not always to be a stay at home mom. She and her husband, Andy, join us to discuss what changed her mind and how that has blessed their family.  We pray it will be an encouragement to you!"


Titus 2:3-5King James Version (KJV)

The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;
That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

As I was looking for a picture to include in this post, I found the story that goes with the picture...So, here's the real story! It's a little bonus for those who are reading this post! This was from 2008 when we went to Jamaica on a mission trip. 
"Sweet Camille was sitting next to me Friday night. She asked me as soon as the sermon started for a piece of paper. I told her no because the girls had had some trouble with playing, writing, etc. during the sermon earlier in the week. As I started taking notes and following along during the sermon, Camille would look at my Bible and try to find the same scripture in hers. I leaned over and whispered to her, "If I give you paper, will you write what I write." She said, "Yes!" with a big smile. So, I gave her a piece of paper and that 7 year old little girl took notes for the entire hour long sermon. She would look at my notes, copy what I wrote and follow along in her Bible. She would circle the verses we were looking at. SUCH a GOOD GIRL! I was SO PROUD. I gave her some "sweetie" (M&Ms) and we bragged on her for a long time.

Here we are with our notes."


~Our very good friend Kerri Epling was a guest on this episode of Wifey Wednesday.  She & her husband have been great encouragers to us in lots of areas but especially in this area. We know the ladies will benefit from listening to this.
