Today's guest believes that the profound work of a woman is to bring civility and order

out of chaos, to bring beauty and intelligence and excellence to her community, and that

we need to turn our homes into a life-giving haven for all who enter.

This is our third episode in our Mayas for the Mom series this month, and this will

actually be my guest's second time on the spillover.

Every episode this month is for women, parenting, God's design for us, home making, and even

etiquette are what you can look forward to.

And this time, I have questions for my guest on the best ways to make friends as an adult,

how to know when to break up with friends, and questions submitted by Cute Servitives on

everything from beating the odds and sustaining a spirit-filled marriage to how you can use

your home to bless others even when you're chronically ill or bedridden.

She's authored more than two dozen books, including a brand new coffee table book called

Tea Time Discipleship.

It's full of beautiful pictures and recipes and how-tos, so we can feel encouraged and capable

enough to minister God's love to others over a cup of tea.

It couldn't be more perfect for this show.

We are talking friendship and more.

Please welcome author Sally Clarkson to the spillover.

The last time we spoke Sally, we talked about your book, The Life Giving Home.

Now you have a brand new book that has beautiful pictures and journal prompts and even some

recipes, which you call Tea Time Discipleship, which I have next to me.

What about this book do you think that fans of the life giving home will really enjoy?
