Creating Community

Proverbs 13:20 reminds us of our need to be mindful of the community we create for ourselves.

Finding a tribe who is somewhat like me, but also can speak life to me, even when that means I have to hear the hard things is so valuable.

Flattery is fun, but not always productive in every situation. Bummer, huh?

We must let our friends speak both the good and the hard things, and then discern what it is the Lord wants us to hear or learn from each conversation.

Note: Even though it is hard for us to hear the tough stuff, we have to remember it can be hard for our friends to say the tough stuff and ask the challenging questions too.


Be friends with those who are wise, and you will become wise. Choose fools to be your friends, and you will have trouble.
Proverbs 13:20 ERV

But encourage each other every day, while you still have something called “today.” Help each other so that none of you will be fooled by sin and become too hard to change.
Hebrews 3:13 ERV

Random picture, because that’s what the algorithm likes. ASB Life= A Slightly Better Life, one we get to create.

Even if it feels like it at times, you aren’t held back or tied down. Sin has no hold on me, and no hold on you. You GET TO walk in freedom, friends.

Hey Friend! I am truly so glad that you’re here today!

At A Slightly Better Wife, I share about faith, homemaking, homeschooling, and marriage—along with my passion for creating a non-toxic, intentional home. Life isn’t about perfection, but I believe in making small, meaningful choices each day to do things slightly better than before.

My love for simple living and homemaking was deeply shaped by my grandparents. I have the best childhood memories of being in the kitchen with my Grandma Edna, learning the beauty of home-cooked meals and a well-tended home. My Grandpa Link’s storytelling and wisdom instilled in me the value of faith, family, and slowing down to listen during the little moments that make life rich. Their influence is woven into who I am today and I’m so grateful for that.

I’m a wife, a momma of 5, and a homemaker at heart. My husband and I met young, just days after my 18th birthday, and we quickly (like within a week) knew that forever was in our plans.

Together, we built our home on the edge of town, where we’re raising and homeschooling our children while embracing a simple, purposeful life in the city.

Here, you’ll find encouragement for your marriage, practical tips for homemaking, and inspiration to cultivate a home filled with faith and love. Whether you’re looking for a recipe, a fresh perspective, or just a place to feel understood, I hope you’ll stay awhile and explore.

Let’s pursue slightly better together!
