I’m seeing the whole “glyphosate” caused the Canad I’m seeing the whole “glyphosate” caused the Canadian wildfire thing. And about how they are spraying it everywhere and that’s why the fires have started. And we can’t breathe etc etc. That could be true. But I don’t think most people realize this isn’t new. 

Just last year Shenandoah National Park sprayed insecticides all over the park. Where do you think that overspray went? On people’s properties, in the air, in your garden, and even settling on properties hundreds of miles away since it was airborne. 

None of this is new. It’s been happening for over a decade. Our air is toxic. Period. It’s not because of something new. You’ve been eating and breathing in this stuff most likely your entire life.

Here’s what I hope everyone will do—get serious about it. When you hear it’s going to happen (they often announce it before they do it) get loud to your local authorities. If you’re concerned about it nationally, get loud at your statehouses. 

The world is finally waking up to what many of us have been screaming for 20 years. Yet we were called the crazy ones. 

Brings a whole new meaning to Mark 16:18–they will drink poison, and it will not hurt them. 

This has been our prayer for our family. But we can’t pray this while not fighting the issue.
It’s a sad reality. But it’s the truth. And here’s 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 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.

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 I've been talking about famine, but I had no idea that God would be talking to me so personally about famine right here on my homestead this year. Not in the way you may think.

In the springtime I began ripping this wild herb out of my garden beds. It didn't make sense—the seed bank in these beds should be long gone of weeds overtaking them. But here I was, ripping out this plant by the barrel load. 

Suddenly I stopped, got out of my tunnel vision, and thought to myself—if it doesn't make sense, then what is God trying to show me? My goodness, was I shocked when I really dove into the history and uses of this beautiful wild plant. 

Historically, lambs quarters was used as a crop for livestock and humans because it was drought resistant. During great famines, lambs quarter leaves were eaten extensively, and the seeds were saved and used like quinoa. This plan is still widely used in places like Africa today, where produce and rain is scarce. 

Lambs quarters has pretty much every mineral your body would ever need. It has 200% MORE calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, zinc, vitamins, Omega-3 fatty acids, and protein than kale and spinach (and other common leafy greens). Making it the exceptional famine food. 

Our ancestors ate it regularly as a gentle anti parasitic, anti inflammatory, antioxidant, and for liver support.

I plan to save most of the seeds from the plants I've let take over a bed, and cultivate it widely on our homestead.

I wrote all about this incredible plant in a brand new blog post on my website.
