Welcome back to the “Homely House Podcast”! I’m Ashton, and it’s my honor to introduce some incredible women who embody the heart and soul of home. Tonight, I’m thrilled to share the mic with the lovely Britt Schmitt.
C.s. Lewis once said this about friendship:
“Friendship … is born at the moment when one man says to another ”What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . .”
This could not be more true about the origin of my friendship with Britt. We found each other through our favorite things and, like Lewis and Tolkien, delight in fellowship around all that is good, beautiful, and true. In many ways, we are cut from the same cloth. The lessons Britt has taught me about music, art, and beauty are truly priceless. Anywhere Britt is, you’ll find that life runs deep and meaning abounds – and I mean stupid deep!
I hope you enjoy this glimpse into the story God is writing in and through Britt’s family and that it inspires and blesses your own homely houses with wisdom, creativity, and encouragement.
