50+ Healthy Holiday Sweets to Share

by Leave a Comment

‘Tis the season for Christmas cookies, candies, and all other forms of sugary delights. The best part of the Christmas season is sharing these things with others.

In honor of my mother and in light of God calling us to love others, we’ve compiled 50+ shareable baked goods.

We’ve got…

  • vegan,
  • keto,
  • paleo,
  • low sugar,
  • gluten free, and
  • plain ‘ol yummy treats

so that everyone will find something special to eat.

My mom was always so good at sharing Christmas sweets.

During the holiday’s I remember Christmas cookies, candies, and such always flowing lovingly out of our kitchen. Every year she’d put together plates for neighbors, teachers, friends, postal workers, and more.

We didn’t have a lot of money but mom always found a way to load those plates with gingerbread men, sugar cookies, fudge, aplets & cotlets, chocolate covered cherries, and more.

She taught the value of loving and putting others first with each plate of baked goods she gave away.

For to us a child is born,
    to us a son is given,
    and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
    Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6

We love you and wish you a very Merry Christmas.

Meaningful Gifts for the Ones You Love

If you’re ready to add meaning to your gift giving this guide will provide ideas galore. This year, we’re hoping to begin the switch as Christian women from buying consumer-oriented gifts, to buying Christmas gifts that are meaningful to the one receiving them and those of us giving them. Our guess is, you’re just as burnt out trying to buy meaningless Christmas gifts as you are receiving them! And guess what…

2 Critical Steps for Setting Priorities

Priorities. How do you set them and how’s a Christian woman to know if she’s chosen the right priorities? In a world where so much clamores for our attention and time, priority setting is tough. As a woman of God there are two key priorities that have to rise to the top of your list. Why? Because they determine what your remaining priorities should be. We’re going to explore how priorities have been overtaken and how to place the most important ones back on top.

50+ Healthy Holiday Sweets to Share

Lessons Learned from Sharing a Meal with Jesus

“If you really want to make a friend, go to someone’s house and eat with him – the people who give you their food give you their heart.” This quote by Cesar Chavez embodies what Jesus teaches about meals. Meals are tangible experiences of grace the book of Luke is full of. The lessons in this post are sure to guide and equip you for every meal you provide, and are part of, this holiday season. What better Bible study for the holiday season than learning from the meals Jesus shared. Eating with Jesus shows that meals aren’t just about comfort and familiarity, they’re opportunities to put God first, serve, rely on God’s provision, and disciple.
