It’s a sad reality. But it’s the truth. And here’s why.

Our current American generations are not homestead or agricultural minded. The regenerative agrarian movement is still very young here. And the farmers and land owners who are much older and ready to sell their property are almost always doing it so that they can have a retirement and healthcare fund. There’s no money in the way old timers did farming. That’s kind of the long game conventional ag played them into.

I watched my grandfather sell every cow he had (even though he didn’t want to) so that he could put money into their bank account so that they would never have to go into a nursing home.

I’ve talked to people who have held onto land thinking their children would steward it, only to realize they don’t even want to live in the same state is them. They want an inheritance for their kids. Can you blame them?

There are certainly people buying land from farmers for far less than a data center would, and then being conniving and selling it the following month to a data center. This happens over and over again.

But there are also people who just want to sell their land and be left alone. They think the state is going to “hell in a hand basket” anyhow, so what’s it matter to them.

Here’s the catch—whether they sell it to a data center or not, it is clear they want high dollar for their property. And they will sell it to the next developer of 350 new homes on .2 acres that comes along. Or the next millionaire that wants to save it.

Which one will come first? Time will tell. I’ve seen both. Don’t lose hope.

Pray that people would be obedient to the Holy Spirit. He is quickening many to buy large plots of land right now, but it only happens if they say “yes”. Pray that the Lord would extend more and more wealth to His people so that we can steward it well into expanding in more land ownership.

Continue changing the culture. Don’t give up hope. Raise your kids close to Jesus and agriculture. Teach them honor and stewardship. Teach your community and friends. The next generation won’t fail this task—they will understand the assignment. But until then, raise

We have become very good at buying supplements.

A new vitamin for energy. A probiotic for digestion. An herb for stress. A powder for inflammation. Another bottle promising to support the immune system. And some of those things can be incredibly useful.

But there is a question we often fail to ask:
Is my body able to properly digest, absorb, and use what I am giving it?

Our wellness cabinets can be overflowing while our understanding of the body remains painfully limited. This is why I believe gut health must be approached with education—not simply another shopping list.

You need to understand what prebiotics and probiotics actually do. You need to know where enzymes fit into digestion. You need to learn how food, fiber, fermented foods, herbs, stress, and everyday habits can influence the digestive process.

You do not need to become fearful of food. You do not need to purchase every supplement someone recommends. You do not need to follow every wellness trend that moves across your screen.

But you do need knowledge.

That is why I created The Gut Health Handbook for Women—and Men! It walks you through the foundations of digestive health and gives you practical information you can begin using in your own home.

Before you buy another supplement, take time to understand the body you are trying to support.

This handbook is educational and is not a substitute for individualized medical care.

It’s ok if your family is different. It’s ok if y

It’s ok if your family is different.
It’s ok if you stay at home with your kids and raise them the way God intended.
It’s ok if your kids don’t spend all their waking moments entertained with extra curricular activities away from home.
It’s ok if you make your kids help you clean the house, milk the cows, and weed the garden.
It’s ok if you chose unconventional healthcare and your kids have never been to an allopathic doctor.
It’s ok if you and your husband actually communicate and love each other.
It’s ok if your teenager has boundaries and they aren’t allowed to be of the world before they are mature enough to handle it with wisdom.
It’s ok…and I thought you should know that. And I think you should know that if you don’t believe any of those things, too.

I will never apologize for homeschooling my kids and not allowing them to be part of an indoctrinated system. I have seen that village, and I want no part of it. The fornication culture, competition culture, and consumer culture isn’t for us. We unsubscribe.

Instead I want kids who an independent, self-driven, discerning, clear minded, honoring, not fighting to “be loved”, wise, kind, modest, loving, and courageous. I want my boys to be warriors, yet gentle enough to hold their wife and babies. I want my girls to be gentle, but courageous enough to stand up against injustice.

There is an innocence that our children have been losing sooner and sooner with each generation. I want my kids to be informed but not consumed. I want their minds to be full of Christ before the world fights for their attention. I want their lives to be influenced by God fearing people so they aren’t corrupted by worldly people when they leave here. I want them to be so confident in who they are in Christ, that no one can convince them they aren’t good enough.

And that’s ok.

I've been talking about famine, but I had no idea

Last week I talked about capacity, and how some pe

Last week I talked about capacity, and how some people just have lesser capacity than others. But also, that there is wisdom in knowing when you should, and should not, have high capacity. Seasons of rest are essential. Maybe you’re a mom and littles and you have to put other things on the back burner. Being high capacity in a delicate season like that will likely burn you out of all the things. Maybe you’ve had health issues and need to lighten the load. But low capacity should never be because you lack self confidence or you’re lazy.

This week, though, I want to talk about some real truth around capacity. Because the reality is that you can increase capacity, and you can decrease capacity, but you cannot SUSTAIN high capacity. It won’t work. This is where we see what we call “burn out”.

A wise person will understand that in order to increase capacity higher, you must push yourself to beyond anywhere you have ever been in a season. Eventually, the capacity evens out, if you do it well, and you reach a point and begin to decrease that capacity before expanding again.

You can decrease capacity in order to rest, evaluate, heal, plan, organize, and test yourself. Or, as in the seasons I mentioned above.

But never, can you ever, forever sustain a high capacity.

You can have a bigger capacity than someone else. But having a larger capacity and living in “high capacity” are different. Most real leaders naturally have the gift and ability to manage a large capacity. They expand and decrease, and expand again—each time that expansion building out a larger foundation so that building increase happens more quickly each time.

But good leaders know that they can go go go (sometimes for months and years) at that rate, yet eventually they will have to lessen the load so they can recoup before they build up more capacity. The foundation remains, and is ready for them to expand again when they have rested.

Rest. Excel. Rest. Repeat.
Less capacity. Higher capacity. Less capacity. Repeat.

It’s all about balance, friends. You can do it. 💛
