Welcome!

Thanks for stopping by Recipes From The Heart Of Your Home. Don't forget to check out the Christian resources we have linked to on the left of the page. I am a Christian wife and mother, doing my best to take care of my family and be a good steward of the wonderful blessings God has given us. I enjoy cooking for my family and doing it unto God for His glory. I love to cook from scratch when it's affordable and not too time-consuming and I especially love to bake. Lots of family and friends ask for my recipes so I've decided to put them on a blog so they can get them or anyone else who wants them. I think you can make good quality, good tasting food at a fraction of the ready-made price and it doesn't have to break your budget. Please let me know how these recipes turn out. They're our family's favorites. I'll be updating this blog as often as I can. Enjoy and God bless!

Hi Gracie! Thanks for stopping over at my blog. There isn't a whole lot to comment yet about your blog, but one suggestion would be that when you do start writing on various subjects, you could have a list on the side bar of your blog under the label section. That is always very helpful for me when I'm on a blog to find entries on the subject I'm interested in.

On another note, some good resources for you to get your hands on, if you haven't already are: The Return of the Daughters video, The Monstrous Regiment of Women video, and The Way Home by Mary Pride. These have been such life-changing resources for me. Also, check out the section called Paul Washer on our blog http://atypicalchristianity.blogspot.com . God bless!
