Stop thinking about PREParedness in terms of a single emergency that your family may face, but in terms of a PREPared lifestyle that allows your family to weather any storm that comes their way, as well as relying less on outside agencies to direct your path.

PREPAREDNESS IS NOT ABOUT EMERGENCIES, IT’S ABOUT A LIFESTYLE. But not necessarily the lifestyle you think …. Scenario 1 Take the scenario of my friend who is highly focused on being prepared for an earthquake. He lives in the middle of earthquake country in California.

Or, donate it to a woman's shelter so that THEY can be better PREPared for emergencies of their own.

Think on this. Not only can you use your preparedness items and skills to help your own family, you can be a blessing to others going through hard times. Living in a world full of isolationists without regard of our neighbor is not what God intends for His Creation. The tendancy amongst so many people […]
