Beef for sale, hormone and antibiotic free.

Mar 10, 2010 misc

Book reviews are probably as close to any form of Advertising I ever do on my blog, except this time.  I need to post this somewhere and somehow for people to see and so, blog – your getting it.

I already know my vegan friends Phil & Ryan are gonna jump me for this, but fortunately for me, unfortunately for them, I am not a vegan.  That being said, I am conscious about where my food comes from.  Obviously, most of you know, or should know, that I am very picky on things like Chocolates and Coffee – I insist on drinking coffee that is Fair-Trade, Organic and when I can get it….Shadegrown.  However, responsible shopping doesn’t end there.  I try to study my clothe and what brands I purchase.  I believe their is great significance in being intentional about what we eat and what we wear.

Part of being responsible about what we eat, for me, is the background of my meat.  Since moving to Virginia I haven’t had the renowned Lancaster Farmers Market as my guide, nor Cherry Hill Orchards, Granny’s Amish Barn, BB’s and the Pine View Dairy.  However, that being said, right under my own nose, in the community of the church I attend – I was able to by responsibly grown cattle.  Grass Fed, Free Range, No Hormones, No Radiation Treatments and Anti-biotic free meat.  It also is always 90% fat free or more, cattle raised by a friend and butchered by a mom and pop shop.  Just my style…

If you are interested in a better quality of meet for your family, it’s no more expensive then the died, radiotive stuff you will find in stores.

It is important to progress with discipline in our Christian walk, but also in the consumption we are subject to as a part of life.  With that said, last nights Chili was amazing with it and tonight is Taco’s. The quality is amazing, even cooking it my wife could notice a difference in the smell and preperation. Well tacos await, adios.

Bridges to the Cross – MCUSA 2011.

Feb 22, 2010 misc

Most of you know that I belong to a Conservative Mennonite Church which currently does not really participate in the happenings and dealings with the general conference of Mennonite USA churches.  However, since I was born and raised in Lancaster, Pennsylvania – the majority of my friends, justice work and heritage spins through the MennoniteUSA world and predominantly the Lancaster Mennonite Conference.

Being all that said, I have never attended a General Conference or MennoniteUSA convention for a few reasons, one of the obvious being that I was interning and attending a Vineyard Church, called the Lancaster Vineyard.  Other reasons being the distance and my career, but the top reasoning being – none of the themes has really ever “grabbed me”.  I have been to a few get togethers and open-discussions on “peace and justice issues” and “Anabaptist Church Planting” – but never overly impressed with the themes of the Mennonite USA conventions and conferences, till the plans for 2011 for announced.
