Bread, Books and the Bible Podcast

I am so glad you stopped by. Each week I will bring episodes on Biblical topics, homesteading and homemaking ideas, old age wisdom, and more. So stay tuned and please subscribe so that you can enjoy hearing a new episode each week. 

In 2 Chronicles 7 Solomon dedicates the first temple to the Lord. The principles in this account were made known to the nation of Israel and yet we can bring them to light in our nation and our own personal lives. This passage comes with covenant promises that are conditional. When we draw near to God in repentance he will forgive and heal our land and our lives.  

Over the years this podcast has gone through many changes. It has been deleted and then restarted. It has had it artwork revamped. Titles have become more precise; all in order to grow and stretch my wings. In this episode I share how I am still changing and what you can expect in the future. Thanks for listening. 

The sourdough starter has been around for thousands of years. Archaeologists have found evidence of fermented dough as far back as 1500 B.C. in ancient Egypt. 
It is a great way to preserve the dough making process. 
It is great for gut health. 
Baking bread also a way to enjoy a beneficial and relaxing activity. 
I have had my sourdough starter for almost a year. Below is the recipe that I was given and use to make my own batches of delicious and nutritious bread. 
Rustic Sourdough Bread
1 cup fed starter
1 1/2 c. lukewarm water
2 tsp. yeast
1 Tbsp. sugar
2 1/2 tsp. salt
5 cups flour of your choice ( you can mix an unbleached flour with a wheat flour for more nutrition) 
Combine all and knead to a smooth ball. Let rise 90 minutes in oiled bowl. Divide into 2 loafs. Let rise in bread pans for 1 hour. Spray with water and slash design with bread knife. Bake at 425 degrees for 25 minutes. 
For Starter: feed weekly
Combine 1/2 cup flour and 1/4 cup water. Stir and let rest for 24 hours. Use or refrigerate. If in fridge, take out and place on counter to bring to room temperature. Never put in a sealed container. Cover with a coffee filter or cheese cloth to let gases escape. 
 

Isaiah was a major prophet in the Old Testament who was used by God to warn and hopefully steer the nation of Israel back to God. He warned them about their wicked ways and he brought a promise; if they would repent, then their sins would be washed away and they would be made clean. We have that same promise; repent and be made clean.

Starting a podcast is a pretty easy project. In this episode I share my podcast journey and some ways to get a podcast up and running.

Have you ever had a passage of scripture that just resonated with you at the right moment? In today's episode I will share one that hit the heart right when I needed it.
