Summary
Welcome to Bright Hearth, a podcast devoted to recovering the lost arts of homemaking and the productive Christian household with Brian and Lexy Sauvé.
This episode continues our topic in Season Three of Bright Hearth, the process of making and keeping the peace—especially in the context of the productive Christian household. In today's episode, Brian and Lexy talk about one of the enemies of your household: Hypocritical and hypercritical judgment. How can you get your Saturdays and evenings back? You know, the ones you waste fighting with your spouse? Three words: A generous measure.
