To close out the summer season I am chatting with seasoned homemaker Mary Belue Taylor who shares wisdom from decades of marriage, mothering seven children, walking through cancer twice, and learning to serve others through the simple ministry of home. From meal trains and hospitality on the road to funny homemaking fails, favorite tools, and hard-won encouragement for younger women, Mary reminds us that homemaking doesn’t have to be perfect to be beautiful—it simply needs to be faithful, authentic, and full of love.
IN THIS EPISODE
Homemaking in the 80s
The influence of home ec class, Granny Belue, and faithful church ladies
Cooking as a ministry of love
Walking through breast cancer while caring for a family
Embracing your own homemaking style

I’m chatting with Lerize Jansen van Rensburg, a wife, mother, part-time legal consultant, blogger, and homemaker living with her husband and their two daughters on a grain farm in the Free State of South Africa that’s been in his family for five generations. 
Lerize shares how God has shaped her view of homemaking through motherhood, farm life, hospitality, and the faithful examples of the women who came before her. 
In This Episode:
Her journey from ambitious career woman to a woman surprised by her love for home
Seasonal meal planning
Gathering people for big hospitality 
Learning to hold plans loosely
Treasuring ordinary days. 
Lerize’s homemaker portrait is a beautiful reminder that home is where your family’s story is being told and where everyday moments become part of a lasting legacy.
