Every Home a Foundation

Experiencing God Through Your Everyday Routines

De: Phylicia Masonheimer

Narrado por: Lisa Larsen

"The home is the “primary seat of discipleship” from which Christians can best serve God, according to this graceful guide...Masonheimer makes a creative, open-minded case that the domestic and the divine need not be mutually exclusive." —Publisher’s Weekly

What if our homes and the work that goes on inside them are not "in the way" of our calling but are instead the way to live well and disciple effectively? Reimagine the Christian home as the firm foundation of a life filled with faith, joy, contentment, and belonging, even in the midst of everyday tasks.

In Every Home a Foundation, Phylicia Masonheimer invites listeners to reconsider their view of home. The Christian home is an image of both a coming spiritual reality and the existing spiritual reality of our family, the church. Through Christ, we can heal and build a home that brings joy to us and love to others.

Every Home a Foundation will transform listeners' view of home from a place of boredom to a place of purpose, train them to find joy in their daily tasks, and equip them to use their home to love others well by

• focusing on healing our view of home and creating a culture of faith;
• exploring the purpose in the mundane tasks of the home, including cooking, cleaning, laundry, mending, tending, and creating beauty;
• and learning the importance of hospitality and creating a covenant home culture.

Masonheimer offers a unique perspective on the importance of home in a modern world. Home is much more than a physical structure—it's a place of belonging and connection that has been strongly tied to God's mission from the beginning. God wants to build a home for His people, emphasizing the importance of homes as central for the Christian life.

With an enthusiastic and friendly tone, Every Home a Foundation is sure to have listeners reflecting on the importance of home in our lives and how we must strive to protect and honor it in all its forms.

So practical and encouraging!

Loved this practical, and helpful book to help view the never-ending tasks in my home as a wife and mom as ministry.

Phylicia is a poet-theologian of her time

As usual, Phylicia teaches theology to the layperson by masterfully weaving words together in beautiful prose that actually mimic poetry. This books is convicting, and in a gentle way, a teaching tool for anyone looking to steward their home better.

I have previously taken Phylicia’s online course “Why Big Goals Don’t Work for You”, and some of it is repeated in this book. However, I got more out of it listening. I highly recommend this book and any book Phylicia has written.
