Summary

Homemaker Legacy Lost examines the evolving role of homemaking, a once-central aspect of societal structure, and its perceived decline in modern society. By intertwining history and social science, the book explores the multifaceted reasons behind this shift, including changing gender roles, economic pressures, and technological advancements. It highlights that the skills traditionally associated with home management, such as resourcefulness and family care, are increasingly undervalued, potentially impacting family dynamics and cultural identity.

 
The book traces the historical context of homemaking, from its essential role in pre-industrial societies to the impact of industrialization and subsequent feminist movements. It argues that the decline in traditional homemaking isn't solely about changing gender roles but also a complex interplay of factors. For instance, the rise of the two-income household and readily available services has altered the necessity and perception of domestic labor.

 
The book progresses by examining economic shifts, technological advancements, and cultural changes, culminating in a discussion of the potential consequences of this loss and the possibility of reevaluating homemaking skills for the modern era.

The Missing Peace - How to Be...

Tim Ross

In The Missing Peace, podcaster and thought leader Tim Ross introduces a stunning perspective on the peace Jesus left us to help us regulate our bodies and emotions as we break free of temporary happiness and walk toward freedom.
Are you okay? Have you tried everything you can think of to get to a place where you feel better, happier? Maybe you've reached for temporary fixes like retail therapy, or playing video games, or finding a spouse or a house in the right zip code, or even prayer and listening to worship music. But nothing seems to work, at least not long term. You don't know what's wrong, but you know you're not okay. You feel exhausted, overloaded, and frustrated. Is this just how life is?
Tim Ross, host of the popular podcast The Basement, offers hope and an eye-opening perspective on the peace Jesus left us and how it can help us regulate our bodies and our emotions, regardless of what is happening around us. Ross's stirring message reminds readers thatsilence isn't golden--giving voice to the soul opens the way to recovery,secrets keep us trapped--we can't heal what we don't reveal,romanticizing pain holds us back--facing it head-on moves us toward healing, andJesus saved us not to survive but to thrive--we don't need to settle for just getting by.
With a depth of pastoral experience and a winsomeness that resonates, Ross helps readers break free from silent suffering and the insatiable search for happiness by learning how to be truly okay in life's challenges and walk toward the peace and the freedom God created them to enjoy.

Emboldened

Belinda Alexandra

How do you begin your life again when you’ve lost everything you’ve worked for and your dreams have been shattered? 
That was the question beloved Australian author Belinda Alexandra faced one freezing winter night when she ran from her home in terror, clutching only her wallet, her phone and her latest manuscript on a USB stick. 
To pull herself up from rock bottom, Belinda drew strength from the real life women who had inspired her bestselling historical fiction: her mother, Tatiana Morosoff, a White Russian who had fled a home more than once due to wars and revolutions; Virginia Hall, an American who lost her leg in an accident but went on to become one of the most revered Allied agents in World War II France; Carmen Amaya, who despite being born into abject poverty in Barcelona rose to become the greatest Flamenco dancer of all time; Edna Walling, who lost her own dream home in a freak fire but created garden designs that made her one of Australia’s most celebrated landscape designers. 
They were women who had faced seemingly insurmountable challenges and found ways to forge ahead on their own terms. 
In a compelling and exquisite blend of memoir and history, Belinda shows readers that, no matter what challenge they might be facing, there is always the possibility of building a bold life full of meaning again from the ashes.

Practice the Pause - Jesus'...

Caroline Oakes

These days, many of us live in a state of overreactive fight-or-flight response and chronic stress. The demands of modern life pull us in all directions and can often put the meaningful connections in our lives at risk—connections to our deepest selves, to others, and even to God. 
 
 
 
But there is good news. New developments in brain science have recently proven that an intentional practice of pausing for a few minutes of meditation, prayer, or other contemplative practice actually rewires our brain in ways that make us calmer, less reactive, and better able to see the bigger picture. 
 
 
 
In Practice the Pause, spiritual director and writer Caroline Oakes offers easy-to-understand explanations of how this new brain science is confirming what every spiritual tradition has been telling us for millennia: by practicing the pause, we become more self-aware and better able to understand others. We become more "God aware." With a refreshing focus on the Eastern Christian understanding of Jesus as a master of wisdom, Oakes shines a spotlight on Jesus's own centering pause practice as a transformative path for personal and social change. We learn that even a seven-second pause practice can move us beyond the fight-or-flight responses of our ego in our daily lives and actually equip us to cultivate the common good in the world.
