For those of you who don’t know, I adore DaySpring and (In)courage and everything they stand for. They are real and facilitate real community for women.

And I can’t pass up an opportunity to share some wonderful product with you….

Reads: "You have filled my heart with greater joy. Psalm 4:7"

…and of course offer my readers a giveaway so they can choose their favorite product.

These, of course, stuck out at me because of the reminder to have everyday joy; and a great reminder of where my joy comes from. Not my circumstances or my ability to “muster up the right feelings”, but from God and Him alone.

These are tools, not necessitites. They are lovely gifts as either a helpful reminder for yourself (of I which I need constant help with), or for a friend (it’s always nice to give to others, isn’t it?)

Today only, the Everyday Joy set (shown above) and the other collections (as individual pieces–yes you can mix and match) are buy 2 get 1 free.

I’ll be hosting an (in)RL meetup here at my home on April 28th. It’s highly probable I will be handing these out as door prizes.

For those of you who don’t live near me…I encourage you to find a meet up or be courageous and host one! I thought about hosting goodies here on Joyful Mothering for that weekend, but really – that would defeat the purpose!

If you haven’t heard about (in)RL, find out more details here.

Winner: Jennifer Freeman

It’s that time of year when we are out shopping for our children, hopefully trying to find resources that are useful for them and offer growth.

You may see me share a few posts with ideas of excellent gift ideas for your children. These will not be just “any thing”. They are resources that have been used and loved by my own children and have been proven to be beneficial for them–not merely a mindless activity.

Today I wan to share with you, from the maker’s of Veggie Tales, Phil Visher’s new series “What’s in the Bible?“. Raise your hand if you’ve ever heard of it?

Good.

For those of you who haven’t, let’s start by letting this clip speak for itself. This clip is from the Christmas edition that just came out. It is filled with facts about the origin of Christmas — but never in the show does it ever choose a “Santa Christmas” or a “Jesus Christmas” as being the “right” Christmas. Take a look: {click here if you are viewing this in your email}:

This clip is about 5 minutes:

Want more? This clip is about 30 minutes {hint– grab your kiddos to watch with you}:

Each DVD runs $14.99. There are 6 DVD’s in the set so far, plus the Christmas DVD.

We are giving an exclusive offer for the 6 DVD bundle plus the Christmas DVD as a bonus,  for a mere $37.95. That’s over a $66 savings, making each DVD less than $5.50!!

The large button on my side bar will take you to their website. It is only through this link (and the large button on my sidebar) that this offer is made possible. You will not find it on their site whatsinthebible.com.

*Please note this does not include shipping & handling.

Now, before you write me off as trying to make a sales pitch, hear me out. If you’ve been reading my blog for any length of time, you probably know me better then this. But if you’re still skeptical, allow me to share my heart?

First, as is stated in my disclosure policy, I will not share anything on this blog that I don’t already use and love–or that my children don’t use and love. I will never post random products or resources here just to make a buck. That’s not part of the goal or vision of Joyful Mothering.

Second, I recently changed my disclosure policy. Here’s how it works. Joyful Mothering does share affiliate links. Every post is labeled that has an affiliate link (including this one). The ads on my sidebar are also affiliate links.

A large portion of the money that is made from those links goes right back into Joyful Mothering–some of it is hosting and domain fees, but most of it, goes right back to you.

Part of my vision for this blog is to help equip mothers with materials to help disciple their children, and themselves. Up until now, all the resources have been sponsored by companies — and I will continue to host sponsored giveaways.

But now I am offering giveaways paid for by the money made from the affiliate links–these would be Joyful Mothering sponsored resources. So anytime you click and purchase from an affiliate link on this blog, the majority of that money goes into resources that are given away right here..  And sometimes? It goes to charities such as Compassion International or The Mercy House (and check out their awesome store – all proceeds go to The Mercy House).

Giveaways here are typically not heavily advertised and in fact will probably be less so, because I don’t want people coming to Joyful Mothering just to get free stuff. The “free stuff” is meant for my readers– YOU. So please, feel free NOT to share with everyone that Joyful Mothering gives away all kinds of goodies. Rather, share with a mom in need if there is an article here that might help encourage her. Hopefully she will feel at home here and then will get in on the freebie goodness, too.

GIVEAWAY CLOSED

Having said all that, I’m offering a What’s in the Bible BUNDLE to a random lovely here, sponsored by me, because I heart you. Sound good?

UPDATE: What’s In the Bible offered to sponsor this giveaway! That just means I can use that money to offer another giveaway next week! I’m thinking a cute collection of DaySpring goodies.

All you need to do is leave a comment sharing what you can do this Christmas season to celebrate Christ in a unique way.

This giveaway will run through Sunday and a winner will be posted on Monday morning. Be sure to leave your email so I can contact you.

I’m taking the majority of the week off from writing this week, but will be back Friday with another fun giveaway!

New here? Would love to have you keep up with posts! Feel free to subscribe and receive updates to your in box!
