What if bread itself isn't necessarily the problem—but the ways we grow grain, process flour, and make bread have fundamentally changed?In Episode 151 of The Dr. Haley Show, Dr. Michael Haley welcomes German baker, engineer, author, and nutrition adviser Dr. Sven Mostegl. Their wide-ranging conversation explores traditional breadmaking, modern flour, sourdough cultures, wheat berries, gluten, fiber, and long fermentation.Rather than declaring bread universally good or bad, Dr. Mostegl explains why the grain, milling process, ingredients, fermentation time, and craftsmanship can produce very different foods.You'll learn:• How traditional bread differs from much of today's packaged bread• What happens after a wheat berry is milled into flour• The advantages and limitations of grinding flour at home• Why professionally milled flour is not necessarily inferior• What long fermentation may change inside dough• Why fermentation involves more than simply waiting a certain number of hours• The difference between authentic sourdough and sourdough-flavored bread• Where the yeasts and bacteria in a sourdough starter come from• How commercial yeast changed bread production• Why whole-grain flour and proper preparation should be considered together• How wheat, spelt, einkorn, and rye differ in breadmaking• Why rye is Dr. Mostegl's favorite grain• How fiber, bread structure, and fermentation may influence blood sugar• Which questions to ask when buying bread from a bakery• What equipment a beginning home baker actually needs• Why learning to handle dough by hand can be valuable before using machinery• How consumer choices can influence what bakeries and manufacturers produceDr. Mostegl also discusses breadmaking as a tactile, meditative, and even spiritual practice. Working with dough teaches the baker to respond to temperature, humidity, hydration, flour, starter activity, and the changing condition of the dough—not merely follow a clock.IMPORTANT CELIAC DISEASE DISTINCTIONOrdinary wheat, rye, or barley sourdough should not be presumed safe for someone with celiac disease. Fermentation can modify components of the dough, but traditionally fermented bread may still contain clinically significant gluten.EPISODE RESOURCESRead the complete article, watch the interview, and access the full transcript: https://drhaley.com/bread-fermentation-sven-mostegl/Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/UmqcdtIaoNgLEARN MORE ABOUT DR.

Today's Bible Verse: "Jesus replied, 'They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.'" — Matthew 14:16 What can the feeding of the 5,000 teach us about trusting God when our resources feel inadequate? Matthew 14:16 reveals that Jesus wasn't simply concerned with feeding a hungry crowd. He was teaching His disciples to trust Him when they couldn't see how a solution was possible. When faced with an overwhelming need and limited resources, Jesus told His disciples to step forward in faith. Want more encouragement throughout your week?

I share thoughts on (what I call) the “Protestant dilemma”: What to do when both sides claim a biblical case? I share the strategy that's helped me most through the years when I encounter a new doctrine. In the second segment, I share about why I started milling my own wheat and a short meditation on Jesus as the Bread of Life.

What does the Gospel of John reveal about who Jesus really is? In this message from The Gospels, we journey through the Book of John and discover Jesus as the Light in the darkness, the Bread of Life, the Living Water, the Good Shepherd, and the Way, the Truth, and the Life. John gives us a beautiful picture of a Savior who doesn't simply offer us information about God—He invites us into a relationship with Him. At the center of John's Gospel is the incredible truth that God so loved the world that He gave His Son so that we could have life. Wherever you are today, Jesus is still the Light when you feel lost, the Living Water when your soul is thirsty, and the Good Shepherd who knows you and cares for you. The Gospels See Jesus. Know Jesus. Follow Jesus.

Is it OK to take experimental peptides like the Wolverine Stack?These are what bodybuilders, longevity gurus, and online influencers are all talking about: experimental peptides. They're chemicals that you can buy online, in packages with names like the Wolverine Stack or the Glow Stack. The websites say "for research purposes only" but talk about their supposed benefits for wound healing and de-aging, and lots of people have been injecting them in a bid to heal faster and look younger.Sliced Bread listener Steve is excited - and has even tried them for himself - but listener Sophie is worried. Both of them are asking whether there's any evidence behind the fantastic claims.To find out the truth, Greg Foot is joined by Dr Andrew Steele, longevity scientist and Director of the Longevity Initiative.All of our episodes start with YOUR suggestions.

A good news church: the Bible describes Jesus as good news. His church therefore must be somewhere where people hear good news- good news that in Jesus, God can be known, he is a friend who understands, he offers a way out of cycles of destructive behavior, he goes before us in everything, he champions us like an older brother, and he delivers us from all fear. This is good news. And we aspire to be a good news church.

What's true of the body is true of the spirit. Knowledge of God cannot sustain intimacy with God. Today, Ron explores one of the hard sayings of Jesus, “I am the Bread of Life.” What did He mean? And how did those who were with Him respond to His words?

#restorationtxAug 23, 2026 • Ryan Welsh • John 10:1-10The Gospel of John presents seven I AM statements of Jesus Christ. Echoing God's self-revelation as the great I AM in Exodus, these declarations reveal Jesus' divine character and saving work. As each statement announces a different facet of his person and mission – the Bread of Life, the Light of the World, the Door, the Good Shepherd, the Resurrection and the Life, the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and the True Vine – Christ repeatedly demonstrates that he alone satisfies the deepest needs of humanity.At Restoration Church, we preach through books of the Bible, alternating between books from the Old and New Testaments. Occasionally, instead of preaching through a single book, we'll focus on a specific topic that our elders feel is important for our church family.Restoration Church is a Southlake, Texas, authentic, Gospel-centered church community focused on loving God, loving others, and making disciples everywhere.Website: https://www.restorationtx.com/Instagram: / restorationtx.church Facebook: / restorationtx.church

We're running one of our favorite episodes from The Business of You archives. If you missed it the first time, or just want to listen again, check this one out! Nick Ambeliotis knows what it takes to turn a small business into a national brand. Born from a deep-rooted appreciation for fine foods, Nick founded Mediterra Cafe to satisfy his longtime passion and to provide a warm and inviting gathering space for Pittsburgh natives and visitors alike. Mediterra is a wholesale production facility for artisan bread whose customers include Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and the Ritz-Carlton. Nick opened his first cafe location in June 2018 with the mission of serving high-quality coffee, pastries, breakfast, and lunch, in addition to hard-to-find cheeses, charcuterie, and more. Mediterra has since grown to three locations but remained a family-owned and operated business. Spiritual Guidance Advice from spiritual elders has played an important part in Nick's business journey. It was during an elder consultation at his church that he first decided to open a bakery, specifically with a mission-driven lens. Mediterra gives away hundreds of loaves of bread every day. Their facility in Arizona also makes extra bread to be transported to families in need in Mexico. All three cafe locations have grown to incredible financial success, averaging $1,000 per square foot in sales per day — but for Nick, faith always comes first. His primary goal is always to be a good steward of the wealth the company generates, which means giving back as much as possible and sharing the company with his family. Building an Industry-Leading Brand If you want to build an industry-leading company, Nick says three main factors contributed to Mediterra's success. The first was his willingness to learn from experts in the field. Nick spent years working for his father's retail business and later for specialty food importers. Second, understand what your market wants. Mediterra sells handmade artisan bread, which means they need customers who appreciate premium products. So he chose cafe locations in neighborhoods with high foot traffic and disposable income. They also started with multiple product options to understand which items were most popular. Lastly, it's critical to hire the right people for the right roles. For his service team, Nick prefers artistic types who are engaging and enjoy talking to customers all day. On the backend, provide instructions to make sure the work is done to a high standard, but micromanaging employees doesn't help anyone. Enjoy this episode with Nick Ambeliotis… Soundbytes 36:08–36:25 "It literally just happened organically and by never compromising what we do, and just trying to find ways to make bread better, faster, all the time." 47:18–47:44 "The big thing in business is, find something that you're going to want to do the rest of your life, if you really want to be a businessman. Find something that you know when you get up in the morning, you're going to want to go and do it. And secondly is, there's nothing like practical experience from people who know what they're doing." Quotes "As many revenue sources as you can have, as long as they're good and you research them, you'll do well." "The only way someone's going to learn is if they fail." "There's a lot of sorrow in the world and a lot of people who are really suffering. So it's always been our mission: what can we do to help? We've never lost sight of that mission." "If you feel you're Christ-based, you're going to be shown the direction." "I'm not worried about gaining wealth as long as you're a good steward of it." "You can't listen to God and what He has to say if you're in all the noise."

☞ ABOUT THIS MESSAGE Andrew explains from John 6 that Jesus is not just a provider of temporary needs but the true "Bread of Life," offering eternal sustenance to those who receive Him by faith; while the crowds wanted physical provision and political rescue, Jesus challenged them to recognize their deeper spiritual hunger and trust Him as the willing atoning sacrifice, the only source of lasting life—underscored by Peter's confession that He alone has the words of eternal life. ☞ BIBLE APP NOTES https://www.bible.com/events/49650689 ☞ GROUP LEADER GUIDE https://page.church/1c3vugx9247afe1 ☞ NEXT STEPS

Welcome back to the Career Prosperity Prayer Call on the Peculiar Career Chit Chat Podcast! ✨ Have you ever found yourself praying: "God, so many changes are happening… please help me adjust to the changes"? We often talk about the exciting side of God moving "suddenly" with blessings and open doors, but what about the other side of suddenly? What do you do when sudden changes, unexpected job losses, or back-to-back rejection letters hit your career journey? In this week's call, we break down what it looks like when life feels like "it's a lot, suddenly"—and why you must choose to see God in the midst of it all. Even when circumstances catch us by surprise, they never surprise God.✨ In This Episode:• 00:00 – Welcome & Setting the Atmosphere of Praise• 02:30 – 5-Year Milestone & Community Impact Testimony from Mary• 04:45 – "It's a Lot, Suddenly": Navigating Back-to-Back Career Changes• 07:15 – The Other Side of "Suddenly" (Handling Unexpected Rejections & Shifts)• 09:30 – Standing on Scripture: Why Joy Comes in the Morning• 12:10 – God is Making All Things New & Offering New Mercies• 15:40 – Guided Career Prosperity & Workplace Favor Prayer
John 13–17 Jesus announced - and demonstrated - that the Kingdom of God had come. And yet, on the night before his death, Jesus prepared his disciples for a reality they had not expected: the Kingdom had come, but it had not yet come in its fullness. It is a tension we still live in 2000 years later. At bread, we want to live faithfully in the overlap: praying boldly and expecting the supernatural power of the Kingdom to break into the present, while refusing to deny the very real suffering, disappointment and loss of the world we still inhabit. So, how do we live with expectation and disappointment, miracles and unanswered prayers, joy and grief? The heart of Jesus' Farewell Discourse in John “Remain in me.” Correct theology matters, but theology alone cannot hold us. We make our home in Jesus, as he makes his home in us — and from that abiding place come the love, joy, peace and power we need to live as people of the Now and the Not Yet. NB - serendipitously, the Lectio 365 app is working through the Remain in me verses in John 15 this week. Follow along there too! By Hannah Flint

In this powerful homily, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC reflects on the extraordinary faith of the Gentile woman who humbly approached Jesus, trusting that even the “scraps” from the Master's table were enough to bring healing and mercy.Her faith reminds us that great faith can be found in unexpected places. Although she had not received the spiritual privileges given to Israel, she continued to believe—even when Jesus seemed silent. She did not walk away. She remained humble, persistent, and confident in His mercy.Fr. Chris challenges us as Catholics to recognize how much we have received: the Eucharist, Confession, the Sacraments, the Blessed Mother, and countless graces from God. Yet sometimes those who have received less appear to trust God more deeply and make greater use of the faith they have been given.When God seems silent, do not stop praying. His silence does not mean He has abandoned or ignored us. Sometimes He is strengthening, testing, and purifying our faith, teaching us to trust Him more completely.The Gentile woman was willing to wait for the scraps—but what she received was the abundant mercy of Christ.May we never take God's gifts for granted. May we approach His table with gratitude, humility, and persistent faith, remembering that Jesus is the Bread of Life, and even the smallest gift of His grace can transform our lives and lead us toward eternal life.
In this brand new series, Jesus Is, Pastor Brandon takes us to John 6 to discover one of the most powerful truths about who Jesus is: He is the Bread of Life. Just as bread satisfies our physical hunger, Jesus is the only One who can truly satisfy the deepest hunger of our souls. In a world constantly searching for more, Jesus invites us to stop striving for temporary satisfaction and find lasting life in Him. Jesus isn't just something we need. Jesus is everything we need.

The Gospel of John presents seven I AM statements of Jesus Christ. Echoing God's self-revelation as the great I AM in Exodus, these declarations reveal Jesus' divine character and saving work. As each statement announces a different facet of his person and mission – the Bread of Life, the Light of the World, the Door, the Good Shepherd, the Resurrection and the Life, the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and the True Vine – Christ repeatedly demonstrates that he alone satisfies the deepest needs of humanity.
Ministry is all about poor beggars telling other poor beggars where to find bread.

In this episode, I break down the real drivers behind economic systems like socialism and capitalism, tracing how human nature and scarcity have shaped society from the ground up. The conversation focused on why we moved from tribes to feudal kingdoms and eventually to the competitive world of capitalism, and what sparked the rise of Marxism and socialism as reactions to these systems.One concept discussed was the deep psychological desire for security—our evolutionary need to accumulate scarce resources for survival. I explore how this instinct evolved into our modern systems of ownership, productivity, and commerce, arguing that these drives cannot be separated from the systems we build.We also dig into the historical turning points that made the world less violent, allowing individuals to trade and collaborate instead of fighting over resources. Several points were raised, including what happens when economies attempt to centralize decision-making, using real-world examples like East and West Berlin and failed socialist utopias. The discussion explored how innovations—like the limited liability corporation—opened the door for more people to participate in building wealth, and why top-down economic planning always seems to run into the same problems.A key theme that emerged was that while the dream of a fairer system persists, every attempt to replace what exists brings its own set of challenges—often rediscovering the reasons certain structures evolved in the first place. As we consider the future, including the potential of AI to reshape our economies, I challenge listeners to ask: will technology finally solve the problem of scarcity and central control, or will our fundamental need for autonomy always pull us back toward individual freedom and choice?Quince: Free shipping and 365-day returns at https://quince.com/impactpodWhatnot: Download the Whatnot app today and get free shipping on your first order.Quo: Try for free PLUS get 20% off your first 6 months at https://quo.com/impactIncogni: Take your personal data back with Incogni!

What makes the perfect pillow? Nothing saying ‘waking up on the wrong side of the bed' like a crick in your neck. With up to 70% of us experiencing neck pain at some point in our lives, sleeping in a dodgy position can lead to days of discomfort. And pillows might be part of the problem... Listener Angela has a frozen shoulder, and hoped a new pillow might provide a more comfortable night's sleep. But with so many options to chose from, which one should she buy? One advertised for her preferred sleeping position? Soft or firm? And what about material: feathers, foam or fibre? She's asked Sliced Bread to help pick out the facts from the marketing fluff.Physiotherapist Dr Chris McCarthy from Manchester School of Physiotherapy joins presenter Greg Foot to discuss the most important factors in selecting the perfect pillow, personalised to you - plus, how to save your sleep when faced with a floppy hotel pillow...All of our episodes start with YOUR suggestions.

Helen loved kvass. The flavor, the fizz, everything about this drink made from fermenting stale bread with water and sugar. But when she got home, she forgot about it for almost 40 years.
A listener asked us a question a lot of us may have wondered at some point: do we have to give up bread? Today, we'll look at who might benefit from staying away from bread, what to do if we want to reduce the amount of bread we eat, and then how to enjoy it if we don't want to change much. Another in our Listener Q&A series in honor of National Wellness Month. It's a focused, shorter episode so there's no beep.

“The Problem of Bread: Art and Nature in Thomas's Ontology of Artifacts” by Matthew Lomanno (University of St. Thomas, Houston). Presented at the Thomas Aquinas College 2026 Thomistic Summer Conference.
Overcoming fear of legalism allows us to apply faith to everyday life. Learn why avoiding topics not explicitly commanded limits your growth. Many Christians struggle with a fear of legalism that keeps them from discussing relevant cultural or practical topics. This hesitation often prevents us from applying our faith to areas of life that fall outside of strictly commanded biblical mandates. We discuss why this mindset can be a hindrance to spiritual maturity and how to expand your perspective on integrating faith into daily decisions. By moving past the fear of legalism, you can begin to see how biblical principles apply to broader life choices. This conversation helps you identify where you might be limiting your worldview and encourages a more robust application of scripture. We address the tension between strict adherence to rules and the freedom to pursue wisdom in all areas, ultimately helping you navigate complex topics with confidence.
Welcome to Day 2924 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2924– “Exchanging What's Good for What's Best.” – Luke 10:38-42 Putnam Church Message – 08/02/2026 The Good News According to Luke: “Exchanging What's Good for What's Best.” Last week, our message was “What About My Neighbor's Neighbor?” and we learned that we need to become the neighbor and get back to the basics: Love God, Love Neighbor, Show Mercy. Today, we continue with our thirtieth-second message from Luke's narrative of the Good News of Jesus Christ. Today's message is: “Exchanging What's Good for What's Best.” Our core passage today is Luke 10:38-42, on page 1613 of your pew Bibles. At the Home of Martha and Mary 38 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39 She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet listening to what he said. 40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” 41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one.[f] Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” Opening Prayer Father, we come before You today with grateful hearts, but also with honest hearts. We confess that we are often busy, distracted, worried, and upset about many things. We serve, but sometimes we serve with anxious hearts. We work, but sometimes our work pulls us away from the One we are working for. Lord Jesus, invite us again to sit at Your feet. Teach us that good things must never replace the best thing. Help us learn the difference between faithful service and frantic busyness, between loving hospitality and anxious striving, between doing for You and being with You. Holy Spirit, quiet our minds, soften our hearts, and help us hear the voice of Christ today. Amen. Introduction: Real People in Real Homes One of the endearing qualities of the Bible is its down-to-earth approach to life. The people in Scripture are not presented as plaster saints, polished statues, or untouchable heroes who never lose patience, never misunderstand, never get tired, and never say the wrong thing. They are real people. They have real homes, real families, real personalities, real frustrations, and real disagreements. Abraham gets afraid. Moses gets overwhelmed. David falls terribly. Elijah gets discouraged. Peter speaks too quickly. Thomas doubts. James and John want to call down fire. And Martha gets irritated with her sister in the kitchen. That is one reason the Bible speaks so deeply to us. It does not pretend life is neater than it is. I sometimes wonder if the people in the Bible knew their family moments would be preserved for centuries of readers around the world. If Martha and Mary had known that one brief household squabble would become one of the most famous family scenes in Christian history, they might have said, “Luke, could you please leave that part out?” But the Holy Spirit preserved this moment not to embarrass Martha or elevate Mary as though one sister is good, and the other is bad. This story is much wiser and much more gracious than that. Luke places this scene immediately after the parable of the Good Samaritan. Last week, in “What About My Neighbor's Neighbor?” we heard Jesus say, “Go and do the same.” We were reminded that mercy crosses the road. / Love sees need. / Mercy moves. / Grace sends. / That is important because we might now think, “Then Christianity is all about doing, serving, helping, feeding, bandaging, paying, visiting, giving, and going.” And yes, those things matter. / But now Luke gives us a balancing scene. /After showing us mercy in motion, Luke shows us worshipful attention. / After showing us the Samaritan crossing the road, Luke shows us Mary sitting at Jesus' feet. / After showing us love in action, Luke reminds us that action must flow from relationship. / The point of this passage is not that serving is bad and listening is good. The point is that even good service becomes disordered when it pulls us away from Jesus. Today's message title is: “Exchanging What's Good for What's Best.” And the central truth is this: Jesus does not call us away from service; He calls us to serve from the strength of being with Him. Our passage is Luke 10:38–42 in the New Living Translation. Jesus and His disciples enter a village, and Martha welcomes Him into her home. Her sister Mary sits at the Lord's feet, listening to what He teaches. Martha becomes distracted by the preparations and asks Jesus to tell Mary to help her. But Jesus answers with compassion, saying, “My Dear Martha,” and then tells her that she is worried and upset over many things, but only one thing is truly necessary. Mary has chosen what is best, and it will not be taken from her. We have four truths in our bulletin insert today to illustrate this lesson. Main Point 1: Martha Welcomed Jesus, But Busyness Pulled Her Away From Him Luke tells us that as Jesus and the disciples continued on their way, they came to a village where a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her home. John's Gospel tells us that Martha, Mary, and their brother Lazarus lived in Bethany, a village near Jerusalem on the eastern slope of the Mount of Olives. Bethany was close enough for Jesus to travel into Jerusalem, yet far enough away to provide rest from the pressure of the city. This little home appears to have become a place of refuge for Jesus. In Luke 9, He set His face toward Jerusalem. He is moving toward the cross. Opposition is increasing. The road is heavy. And here, in Bethany, He is welcomed into a home. Do not miss the beauty of Martha's action. / Martha welcomed Jesus. / That was not a small thing. In the ancient Near East, hospitality was sacred. Travelers depended on the kindness of households. There were no modern hotels on every corner, no drive-through restaurants, no refrigerators full of leftovers, no grocery delivery service. To welcome guests meant real labor. Water had to be brought. Bread had to be prepared. Food had to be gathered, cooked, and served. Space had to be made. Hospitality was not merely social courtesy. It was a moral responsibility. / And Martha does it. She opens her home. She takes responsibility. She sees what needs to be done. Many of us should be thankful for Marthas. Every church needs people who notice what needs doing. Every family needs people who remember the details. Every ministry needs people who prepare, plan, cook, clean, organize, schedule, unlock doors, make coffee, set tables, print bulletins, and quietly keep things moving. Without Martha-like people, many good things would collapse. So, Martha's problem is not that she served. Her problem is that her service became a distraction. Luke says she was “distracted” by all the preparations. The word carries the idea of being pulled away, dragged in different directions. Martha is not simply busy. She is divided. Her attention is stretched thin. She is working for Jesus, but she is being pulled away from Jesus. / That can happen to us too. We can serve the Lord and slowly lose sight of the Lord. / We can work in the church and become irritated with the people in the church. / We can prepare meals, teach lessons, lead committees, visit the sick, give generously, and still grow resentful because the work has become disconnected from worship.

Sue Becker shares Rachel and Kyle Hester's powerful testimony of how fresh-milled grains became an unexpected answer to prayer. After years of debilitating health struggles left Kyle with severe dietary restrictions, what began with a desperate prayer and a single bite of Kamut sourdough became a journey toward healing, renewed strength, restored joy, and the Food Freedom they thought they had lost. Rachel and Kyle's story is a beautiful reminder that food can be more than nourishment—it can be part of God's provision and a pathway to true freedom—both food freedom and culinary freedom.
