Ep. 8 The Life of Elisabeth Elliot – Interview with Kathy Reeg

03/08/22 • 25 min

What a joy it was to talk with Kathy Reeg, the president of The Elisabeth Elliot foundation. She is a wealth of knowledge and has such a warm, kind spirit. The first time we had a conversation on the phone we spent over an hour and a half talking not just about Elisabeth but she gave such wonderful advice on mothering and raising children in the faith.
I hope you enjoy this episode where we discuss Elisabeth’s life as a whole and how helpful she is to women pursuing biblical womanhood.

Ep. 7 Abigail Dodds – A(Typical) Woman

To kick off season 2 of the Fruitful Homemaker Podcast I interviewed Abigail Dodds. I hope this episode is a blessing to you!
Book Summary:
In a culture that can belittle womanhood on the one hand—making it irrelevant—and glorify it on the other—making it everything—it’s hard to know what it really means to be a woman. But when we understand womanhood through the lens of Scripture, we see that we need a bigger category for what God has called “woman.”

This book breathes fresh air into our womanhood, reminding us what life in Christ—as a woman—looks like. When we see that we are women in all we do, we can be at peace with how God has created us, recognizing womanhood as an essential part of Christ’s mission and work.

Ep. 9 Mary Beeke – Teach Them to Work

Do your children exhaust you? Have you found yourself finishing their chores because it’s, well, easier than getting them to do them? If so, this book will give you new energy, and your household new harmony. This book will help your children develop a good work ethic.
In this interview, I speak with Mary Beeke, author of Teach Them to Work and we discuss a very important aspect of child-rearing which is instilling a strong work ethic in them. If this is done well, it will be a blessing to them, their families, and most importantly it will bring glory to the Lord.
You can buy Mary's book at Reformation Heritage Books or on Amazon.
