A Christian take on Netflicks!


I wanted to share a new discovery, Christian Cinema. Its a website much like netflicks, you browse movies and rent...movies are sent to your mailbox with no late fees..only difference is the choices of films are wholesome and family friendly.

My family and I love a movie night once n awhile but the movies you rent are rarely any good... filled with violence, crude adult humor, witchcraft, sexual refrences..ect. Its a waste of money, time and it dishonors the Lord!

I just started my membership with Christian Cinema, so far the service is speedy and the dvds are wonderful..I am enjoying the Homestead Blessings, the Art of Breadmaking greatly!


Tonight my family enjoyed homemade pizza because of the Homestead Blessing dvd, the ladies made breadmaking easy and the movie is super enjoyable to watch, my daughter loved learning with me!




alfredo pizza with sausage, basil, spinach and mushrooms! crust was amazing!
 

Try it now for a 2 week F R E E trial! The selection is great!

New Years Inspiration Week: God is our Provider!

Happy New Years ladies! So excited to join Cozy Nook blog in a inspiration week. 


The Lord has been teaching me alot about how He provides and what He feels about debt.


I have been super blessed by reading George Mullers biography which is his journal. He was a preacher in England who felt lead by the Lord to open a christian orphanage. The Lord taught him to not rely on man, goverment or the church to provide for the orphanages needs..food, clothing, coal, furniture, ect. This man relied on the Lord alone for all their needs.. daily you learn how God provides! Its amazing! George wanted to show people that you do not have to be in debt, the Lord wants to completely, 100% provide for His children.
I got to thinking after this book, how many times do I myself rush to the store to buy something we need instead pray for the Lord to provide? Even worse, how many times do we buy something that is on loan, creating debt?
