Thank you!! I love bringing Christmas back to Him and letting Him guide us away from everything in the world that He came to free us from. Thank you!! ❤️🎄Merry Christmas!!
Ordered 6 copies of this book for all the women in my life! Sharing faith and minimalism in every aspect. Will be giving them for Thanksgiving so they can be used the entire holiday season. 🎄✝️☃️
🎄What a delightful interview! Diana, if you ever have a chance to have Tama on again, it would be so fun to hear more about her journey as an author! 🎄
I made Christmas tradition for my family. My kids are now 36 son and 31 daughter we each build a gingerbread house with an evening of Christmas music and movies to follow and Christmas stockings. I asked if we could stop the stocking because their old now and they both said they would forget presents over stockings 😂! We also opened one present on Christmas Eve and it was always new pjs and a Christmas book! Christmas can be as easy or as hard as you make it!
Enjoying the Christmas tree lights and to find peace and enjoyment in the decorations that have been part chore and responsibility....and letting the tree become something that is your gift to the Christmas season. Something that your family benefits from. Hope they recognize the love that it represents and that it brings Christmas peace to everyone.
I just love this time of year but, for some reason I've been a little blue. This younger generation don't really do traditional. So listening to you both. Gave me hope on my next season of life. Thank you 😊
Diana, you are glowing with joy as you do this interview! You truly are using your spiritual gift in ministering to those of us who are privileged to see your videos, and you're giving us something positive to think on throughout the day. Thank you for fulfilling God's call on your life and blessing us so richly!
I never had a problem saying no and I love it. My kids always came first. I never grew up baking cookies and for me it’s an enjoyment every holiday. We don’t get a family Christmas photo every year or matching pajamas. It’s all about the food and time together.
I’m in the empty nester portion of my life. Wishing I had this book when mine were little. I purchased 2 of these devotionals, for my friends with little ones. They love it.
My seven kids LOVE to help in kitchen, from 14-year-old son to 2-year-old daughter. We don't live an Instagram life but we spend lots of time together making messes and having laughs. Bible time every night as a family is also so important. God gives grace to let the less important things go (like a spotless house) to cling on to what really matters. Enjoyed this interview. 💕 Want this book!
Just ordered 2 of the “Simply Christmas” devotional books to give as gifts (or maybe I’ll keep one). We sure pay a premium in Canada though! Thank you Diana, for your lovely smile and thoughtful videos. 🤗
Thank you ladies. 'Permission' greatfully received. I loved the closing statement for us mums. "turn everything over to God....... and everything will be alright" God bless you both. 💕( Now trying to order the book-hopefully it's availaby in the UK)
Hi Diana - I really enjoyed this interview. I’m not a Mom but I think this book would be good for everyone. I want to get a copy and a couple for friends. I love devotionals and this one sounds perfect. Thank you for all the inspiration you give us.
LOVED the video. Am gonna try to see if I can get the book in the UK. Any ideas Diana for best devotional for late teen Christian girl and for a young adult male just coming to faith?
LOL. When my two daughters were young I would get 12 Not decorated gingerbread men cookies from Safeway and cans of frosting and decorations Each girl had six cookies to decorate. Easy and fun!
I purchased this book thanks to you as I was looking for a devotional and this seemed perfect. It's beautiful though here in the UK also more expensive! This was a lovely interview and I shall definitely look up the add on study Thankyou.
Thank you for another great video, Diana. You´re a wonderful, inspiiring encourager . Can you recommend any advent/devotional videos for children aged 10 and below?
I’m loving the Jesus Calling children’s Christmas book... the illustrations are beautiful, and it’s hard board, but still has a little bit deeper content for your 4 and six year olds. It’s not the traditional Christmas story (focused on the wise men and angels) but rather traces the story of Jesus from the beginning. We’re reading it every night around here ;-) Here’s a link: amzn.to/3qNnTiv
I filled out the form to receive the Christmas planner you mentioned & it never showed up in my inbox or my spam folder. Is it still available? Thanks.
I also have a Lipscomb girl. Lots of rich kids there getting ton of Christmas garb. My daughter actually asked for a designer purse. That used to be 100-200$. For those of you that don’t know, that’s now north of 1000$ ! I told her she would have to earn that herself and probably wouldn’t come as a young girl. I’m just hoping she doesn’t get into debt trying to keep up. Prayers for us all! Love you Diana, I’m sure there will be many stars in your crown one day!
Momhood.. acting like all is happening okay. I have this new concept.. Lets Just admit Day by Day we all Just are trying to do something we figuren out along the way. My husband expects me to know what to do. I do not know IT either. I do a lot of research. And yes, that is what info when i go to bed after midnight. And yes, That is what i do at 530 on my phone. Checking lists, planning the week/day, planning what to Read the kid, searching things to do, looking at behaviorisme and parenting. Finding ways for food to go in. I AM not born with a kidenceclopediaknowledge, i gain the knowledge doing the research.
My groceriestore.. food and drinks, cleaningagents. Garbagebags.petfood. Getting a gift there? Fruit and vegetables, meat, chips and Nuts. Soda. Icecream. Alcoholic drinks. Or dishsoap. Not a gift card of mug to be found.
Thank you, Tama and Diana! Tama, what you said at the end about making the Lord smile did my heart good 😭💗🙏.
Thank you!!
I love bringing Christmas back to Him and letting Him guide us away from everything in the world that He came to free us from. Thank you!! ❤️🎄Merry Christmas!!
Tama , that’s exactly what I do at night. Love looking at the Christmas tree and sipping some camomile tea and just talk to God

I got my almost 14-year-old grandson a cute gift. I got him a pair of socks with tacos on them and a Taco Bell gift card.
Love this 👍❤️🎄

Fantastic video! Christmas and simplicity mixed together is a warm, fuzzy, meaningful gift to our families!

Great guest! You do a great job!!!
I love to go to Adoration in our chapel during advent. I enjoy spending time with Jesus during the Christmas season. 😇
I just ordered 3 testerday and had one sent to my two Daughter in laws and one to my Daugther. Know this will be so welcomed by all three of them.

I LOVE this devotional! I just wish that the font was larger for us seasoned moms 😉😗
This was such a fun interview! I bought the devotion and can’t wait to start it!

Do you have a recommendation for a story of Christmas children's book for ages 2, 4, and 6?
