From Stressed to Blessed with Christian Homemaking Expert Tessa Weenink

How can integrating chores and cheerfulness transform your home life? This episode of Veil and Armour features Tessa Weenink from Aimed at the Heart, a homeschooling mother of six children, a dairy farmer and a Christian life coach who empowers mothers through faith-filled strategies. Tessa shares her remarkable transition from finance to motherhood, emphasizing the importance of daily routines that blend responsibility with Christian joy and purpose. Learn her invaluable tips for setting up effective systems at home and preventing burnout, all while letting Jesus' love guide your journey.
This interview was recorded on May 9, 2024, the time of "May-cember:" the busyness of the end of the school year. This busyness is also seen now as we return to back-to-school mode in September! Many lessons to be learned from Tessa, including the 3 C's: Chores and Cheerfulness in a Christian Home.
