Forget the aesthetics of mainstream minimalism and discover a life of authenticity and intention with this “warm, engaging guide” (Laura Fenton, author of The Little Book of Small Living) to living with less…your way.

When Christine Platt set out on her journey to live with less, she never intended to become The Afrominimalist. She just wanted to tame the chaos in her closet! But after struggling with the austerity and whiteness of mainstream minimalism, Christine realized why minimalism often seems unattainable for so many: the emphasis on all-white, barren aesthetics distracts from the practice of living with intention. And so she decided to do things her way by curating a life less influenced by the African diaspora.

In The Afrominimalist’s Guide to Living With Less, Christine understands how childhood experiences and expectations manifest in adulthood, the delicate dance between needs and wants, and the complicated weight of familial and societal pressures. A far cry from Konmaried closets, capsule wardrobes, and conspicuous consumption, Christine’s “living with less” brand is more than a decluttering regimen. “By detailing her maximalist-to-minimalist transformation, Platt puts readers at ease” (The Washington Post) and presents a radical revisioning of minimalism, one that celebrates the importance of history and heritage and permits you to make space for what really matters…your way.

Beautifully illustrated with original black-and-white prints and line drawings, The Afrominimalist’s Guide to Living With Less is a testament to the idea that anyone can be a minimalist and a warm invitation to a life curated with intention, perfect for readers of Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus (The Minimalists), Marie Kondo, Joshua Becker, and Courtney Carver.

This book will change how you view the Bible in context (in a very good way).
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
When I first stumbled upon Dr. Heiser’s work, I didn’t know just how much I was going to enjoy it. In the Unseen Realm, Dr. Heiser lays out the best exegetical and hermeneutical case I’ve seen for understanding the Bible, especially those hard to understand passages that are littered throughout. This book has helped me take my biblical understanding to another level. It’s also one of the best researched books I’ve come across in any subject (60 pages of bibliography). Not only can you read this and enjoy a new level of understanding, but it can also become a reference book that you use again and again. I’m now going to read his other books because this was fantastic. God bless you all.

Required Reading for Serious-about-Scripture Christians
Format: Hardcover
A must-have, must-read for anyone interested in what Scripture's authors believed and communicated in the writings. Eye opening, gripping, and serves as an outstanding introduction or supplemental to the ancient context of Scripture for understanding it's teaching today. Absent are surface level feel-good platitudes. This book is for someone who wants meat. I highly recommend this book and Michael Heiser's other books.

Practical, elegant, and very functional.
Size: Paper Towel Holder - Standard Design
I absolutely loved this paper towel holder. It features a modern stainless steel design that looks beautiful in the kitchen and matches everything. The base is quite heavy, so it doesn't slide around or tip over when you tear off a sheet—which is incredibly important. The addition of the spray bottle is an excellent bonus. It’s perfect for keeping water, vinegar, or a cleaning solution close at hand, allowing you to do a quick cleanup while you’re cooking or wiping down the countertops. Plus, it’s easy to refill and use. Another feature I appreciated is the side arm, which helps keep the roll in place and prevents it from unraveling on its own. It is well-made and durable. Overall, it is a very practical product that saves space and makes things much more convenient in the kitchen.

Nice and handy!
Size: Paper Towel Holder - Standard Design
Needed a sturdy paper towel holder for one hand operation. This fit the bill. I really like that I can just put some cleaner of choice in the middle to always have on hand; makes clean up a breeze. Would definitely recommend!
