Hello and welcome to Bargain Woman. If you are new to me, I am so glad you decided to stop by and I hope you will look around and get to know me better and leave a comment so I can get to know you better.
While this is a new blog, I am not new to blogging. I have been blogging since March 2008 and my first blog is titled One Sacrifice For All Time. I started blogging at the recommendation of my dear husband as a way to use my passion for writing and maybe make a little money on the side. We had both never heard of blogging prior to March 2008, but had seen an ad in the paper about stay at home mom's and blogging.
Well, a funny thing happened. I fell in love with it, but I gravitated to all of the Christian sites and started meeting many wonderful Christian men and women. I found myself desiring to share my walk with Christ with others and One Sacrifice was born. Since I saw this as a ministry and a way to share my faith, I felt it wasn't right to try to make money on the site so I never did. Fast forward a little more than a year and I thought maybe I would try my hand and blogging for money by sharing what I know and do as a diabetic educator and pharmacist (very very part time). However, after having the site up for about three months, it has become clear to me that I have no passion to write about it and it seems way too much like a job for me to ever put my heart into it.
I do, however, LOVE to share
my walk with Christ and my passions in life which include my husband , my son, and learning to become a biblical woman and homemaker. I initially did this along with my devotions on One Sacrifice, but I just seemed to gravitate away from it over the past year. I have started following so many devotional and evangelical sites that adding in my homemaking sites was making it difficult to be very effective. Thus, I have decided to start this blog to devote to the practical aspects of following Christ which primarily include my main calling in life: to be the help meet to my husband, the mother to my chi
ldren, and the keeper of my home.
The topics of discussion you will find on this site will be many, but will center around the mandate Paul gives in Titus 2:3-5.

The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. (Titus 2:3-5, King James Version)
Specifically I hope to discuss the following:
Romancing your spouse (with discretion of course :~)Biblical Submission
Parenting
Tot School/Home Schooling
Grocery gaming/couponing (which I am VERY NEW to)Family Buildingand we'll just have to see...
I hope you will stick around and get to know me. If you already have a site similar to this, please leave a comment and your link. I love finding new sites by women desiring to live godly and contrary to the feminism that so infiltrates our society.
May you be richly blessed and Happy homemaking!
p.s. I also have a prayer/evangelism blog dedicated to my desire to be praying for the salvation of 1000 souls. Please stop by and share any initials of people you wish to see saved.

Very good idea Amanda. I couldn't sleep, so, here it is 4am and I'm reading your new blog. I like the concept and I know you will keep it on theme.
May God bless your endeavor as you serve the Lord in your own way.
Sounds great my friend, love you.
Hi Amanda, I told you I'd follow you -- and, no, I'm not a stalker! :: giggle ::
Praying blessings over your new venture here.
How neat!!! I LOVE the look of this blog and also what you did to the look of One Sacrifice! The upbeat music was also very "exciting"!!! This is a really HOT topic these days, so you'll get TONS of followers here! :o) Good idea! Hang in there.....you'll be able to put the diabetic stuff in here and there on this one!!! :o) You're like me.....waaayyy too many ideas and not enough time to do them all in!
Dear Amanda,
