Terms of Use and Copyright

Last updated: February 10, 2026

1. Welcome to the Community

By spending time here at Bible, Boots, and Aprons, you’re agreeing to these terms. If these rules don’t sit right with you, then this might not be the right corner of the web for you—and that’s okay!

2. A Note from the Nurse (Medical Disclaimer)

IMPORTANT: While I am a Registered Nurse, the information on this blog is for educational and entertainment purposes only. I am sharing my personal experiences and research. This is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your own physician or qualified health provider. Never ignore professional medical advice because of something you read here.

3. INDEPENDENCE AND AFFILIATION

Bible, Boots, and Aprons is an independent ministry and lifestyle blog. While the content here is deeply rooted in Seventh-day Adventist values and my professional experience as an RN, this site is not officially affiliated with, endorsed by, or a representative of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. For further details on our professional and legal boundaries, please see the Medical Disclaimer (Section 2) and Limitation of Liability (Section 11) within these Terms.

4. Our Community Rules

We’re here to build each other up! As it says in Ephesians 4:29, we want our words to be edifying. Therefore, the following are not allowed:

Foul language or taking the Lord’s name in vain.
Bullying, name-calling, or “tearing down” other readers.
Spam, hacking, or spreading misinformation.
Any other behavior that is disruptive, harmful, or inconsistent with the respectful edifying community this blog was created for

5. Honoring the Work of My Hands (Copyright)

My Content: Unless I say otherwise, the words, photos, and recipes here are my own. Please don’t copy and paste my hard work onto your own site without permission.

Your Comments: When you post a comment, you give me permission to display it here on the blog.

6. The Word of God (Scripture Credits)

I love the Word! Most of my quotes are from the King James Version (KJV), which is in the public domain. When I use the NKJV, please note:

7. If You Think I’ve Used Your Work (DMCA)

I respect other creators. If you believe I’ve used your copyrighted work by mistake, please email me at [email protected] with the details (the URL, the specific work, and your contact info) so I can make it right.

8. External links

Affiliate links

I’m a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This means if you click a link and buy something, I might earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

When you click a link and head over to another site like Amazon, please keep in mind that any purchase you make is between you and that retailer. While I only recommend things I love, I’m not responsible for the shipping, returns, or the products themselves. For more details on how this works, feel free to peek at my Affiliate Disclosure page.

Third-party Links

Occasionally, I link to other sisters in Christ, ministries, or helpful resources. Because I don’t own those websites, I can’t control their content or their privacy practices. If you visit a link I’ve shared, please be sure to check out their own rules and policies.

9. Governing Law

While I love that the internet allows me to connect with friends all over the world, this blog is run from my home in the great State of Missouri, USA. By using this site, you agree that any legal matters or discussions will be governed by Missouri law and will be handled exclusively in the courts located right here in Missouri. This helps me stay close to my family and my roots while I serve you here online.

10. Termination of Use

To keep this community a safe and edifying space for everyone, I reserve the right to limit or remove a user’s access to the blog at my discretion—especially if these terms are being ignored. While I always hope for grace and understanding, I may need to act without prior notice in cases of serious or harmful behavior. My priority is to protect the peaceful environment we’ve built here for our families.

11. “Take it or Leave it”: Limitation of Liability

While I strive for excellence in everything I share—from nursing insights to sourdough recipes—I provide this site on an “as is” and “as available” basis. This means I make no guarantees that the site will always be error-free or that the information will always be perfectly up-to-date.

No Warranties: I do not warrant that the functional aspects of the website will be uninterrupted or error-free. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Bible, Boots, and Aprons (and Brittney Smith) will not be held liable for any loss or damage (including, but not limited to, direct, indirect, or incidental) that results from your use of this website. Your use of this site is at your own risk.

12. Changes to the Terms

As the blog grows, I might need to update these rules. I’ll always post the “Last Updated” date at the top so you’re in the loop.

13. Contact Information

If you have any questions about these Terms and Conditions, please contact me at: [email protected].
