Home Sweet Summer — A Slow Living Digital Magazine (Summer 2026)

The Homemaker's Guide: Home Sweet Summer

Your guide to faith, family, and a slower summer — 66 pages to read on the porch and keep for years.

The summer you keep meaning to have — slowed down, savored, and held in your hands. Home Sweet Summer is a 66-page keepsake digital magazine for the woman who's tired of the highlight reel and ready for the real thing: sun-warm tomatoes, long evenings, fireflies, and a season that actually means something. A 12-week devotional, family recipes, a garden notebook, slow-summer guides for every age, and gentle permission to exhale.

Welcome to your slow summer.

Every year we wait all spring for summer — and then we somehow miss it. We pack the calendar, say yes to too much, and turn the most magical season of the year into a productivity contest. Home Sweet Summer was made to be the opposite of that.

This is a 66-page keepsake magazine you can read on the porch with iced tea and keep coming back to all season long. It's a buffet, not a checklist — take what nourishes you, leave the rest, dog-ear the corners.

Inside this issue:

• A 12-Week Summer Devotional — one verse, reflection, and gentle practice for each week of summer
• 30 Ways to Live Slower — from morning coffee outside to praying over your house at night
• The Family Table — summer recipes, gathering guides, and a simple tablescape
• Red, White & Homemade — a slower, more meaningful Fourth of July
• The Garden Notebook — what to plant now and how to teach kids to notice
• Slow Summer for Every Age — kids, teens, young adults, and the grandparents holding it all together
• Generations Past — recording the stories before they're gone
• The Reading Nook — summer book lists worth your slow hours
• The Gentle Re-Entry & Back-to-School Brunch — easing into fall without the shame spiral
• ...and a letter from Jenny that will feel like a hand on your shoulder
