Biblical manhood is being a man, who loves God and loves his neighbor with the gifts the Spirit gives him.

Biblical womanhood is being a woman, who loves God and loves her neighbor with the gifts the Spirit gives her.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

For dinner, I am making a vegan soup from scratch I found on Instagram.

This will either become a family recipe or compost.

For the first time ever, I used the family silver from 1940, and honestly, I need to host dinner parties more often with it.
