ABOUT ME

Hello, I’m Tahnee!

I’m so glad you stopped by the Haven of Rest. Let me introduce myself…

My husband Erik & I, and our five children are settled in our sweet home in a small town in the beautiful Netherlands.

I’m a born-again, Bible-believing Christian, wife & homeschooling mother.

I started the Haven of Rest as a blog years ago to encourage fellow homemakers and share all the new skills I learned in the last 10+ years as a wife, mother and homemaker. However, there’re one thing that brings me true joy…

With the rise of AI and the pace of society getting ever faster & more demanding, it became increasingly harder to keep up as a blogger. My family is simply my priority.

While I love to encourage moms & homemakers, what I enjoy most is sharing the good news of the gospel.

After many a prayer and frequent musings on how to keep this spot on the internet I put so much love & dedication into alive, I thought it good to shift focus.

As of now, you can find lovingly designed gospel tracts here, specially designed to reach & encourage women and children. New tracts will be added frequently.

“Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls.” – Jeremiah 6:16

I hope this will be a blessing to many women & children. Come join & walk “the old paths”.

In Christ,
