Welcome to Keeping the Kingdom First!
My name is Alyssa Francis. This verse inspired my blog:
Your Heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. ~Matthew 6:32-33
My Mission:
Honor God with our finances.
Encourage and equip others to do the same.
Discover new and creative ways to reduce spending in order to increase giving.
Balance this journey with marriage and motherhood.
Who Am I?
A thirty-something wife and mother of four! Two daughters by birth, one son by marriage, and a sweet baby boy born in April of 2009.
Oldest sister of four girls raised by a single mom. California native. Grew up in Hawaii. Somehow ended up in North Texas.
Once a single mom. Former agnostic. A survivor of abuse and addiction.
Forgiven by a great big God. Married to my best friend.
Why Should You Read My Blog?
Keeping the Kingdom First is not only my creative outlet, it is a ministry. It is an accountability partner. It is evidence of the fruit in my life. It also allows me the incredible blesssing of being a stay-at-home mom.
In 2011, my dear friend Amy came on board behind the scenes as a contributor and partner. Together we are continuing the mission of KingdomFirstMom.com into its fourth year.
What Can You Learn Here?
Perhaps some new ways to be frugal.
A little about my crazy life. Some frugal new recipes. How to stretch 5 bucks or less every week at Walgreens, Rite Aid or CVS.
Who is Amy?
Amy lives in southern Oklahoma and is a youth pastor’s wife and homeschooling mom to three girls, ages 8, 6, and 4, and a new baby boy.
When she’s not writing at Kingdom First Mom, you can find her cooking, getting crunchier by the day, and trying to stay on top of the laundry. She enjoys writing about her family, homeschooling, and life adventures at Amy Loves It.
