Are you doing all the right things, working hard, staying committed, putting in the effort, but still not getting the results you know you should have? The problem might not be your effort. It might be your need to be in control. In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas delivers one of the most raw and personal sermons of the Royal Airlines series, a message about what's really standing between you and everything God has for you. The formula is simple: surrender. Not weakness, surrender. Because the same way you board a plane and hand your life to a pilot you've never met, God is asking you to trust Him with everything you've been white-knuckling on your own. Pastor Eric shares the real story behind his books, from selling 5,000 copies while fighting for control, to 300,000 copies the moment he surrendered the process. Then going back to control. Then failing again. The full cycle — nothing held back. In this message you'll discover: Why motion without progress is a sign you're in control — not God The real reason control feels safe — and why it's actually destroying you Why control is a spiritual problem, not just a personality trait How the book story reveals a pattern that shows up in your relationships, finances, and family What it actually looks like to surrender — not as a feeling, but as a decision The formula: unless a grain of wheat falls and dies, it remains alone Chapters: Chapters 00:00:00 Welcome: The Gift of Today 00:00:40 The Formula: Getting on the Same Page With God 00:04:43 The Plane Illustration: Total Surrender at 35,000 Feet 00:10:09 Motion Without Progress: Why You're Stuck 00:15:22 John 12:24 - Unless a Grain of Wheat Dies 00:16:05 We Don't Want Control Because We're Strong, We Want It Because We're Scared 00:18:11 The Book Story: From 5,000 to 300,000 Copies 00:22:00 Control Is Satanic: The Spirit of Lucifer 00:27:09 The Business Lesson: Letting Dede In 00:38:19 The Cross: Complete Surrender 00:40:35 The Huntsville Story: Obedience Over Feelings 00:44:01 How Do You Feel: I Don't Feel Nothing 00:45:19 Altar Call: Time to Die to Control

A new mishnah! Two requirements of all grain-offerings (and not only): 1. bringing near (to the altar), and 2. waving. The bringing near is only done for grain-offerings, but not all grain-offerings. The waving is not only done for grain-offerings, and not all of them, and not all of other offerings either, but for some of them. First listed are those that require drawing near and no waving. (Rabbi Shimon doesn't agree that drawing near is required of all of the grain-offerings on this list). Also, comparing these factors and what they have in common, and where they differ. Plus, a different view again by Rabbi Shimon, where he needs to find a different common denominator (which he does): the commonality or regularity in which they are brought.

Grain markets rallied on temporary Brazilian soybean shipment disruptions to China, while cattle traded mixed. Crude oil surged again, equities weakened, and metals declined across outside markets.

A new mishnah! It lists grain-offerings that need both oil and frankincense, one or the other, or neither. Note the various kinds of menahot, and how these various terms and requirements are applied. Also, the grain-offering of the sinner, which involves oil and frankincense - in circumstances where the latter has to be brought as part of the offering (including the minhah kena'ot). Oil on the grain-offering by itself would invalidate it, whereas the levonah (frankincense) would not do so. Note the powder effect of frankincense as well.

Biofuel rumors boost soybean oil and beans while crude stays elevated amid Strait disruption fears. Fertilizer uncertainty and acreage shifts support grains; cattle markets continue sliding.

Crude oil spiked near $120 overnight, lifting grains sharply before retreating. Wheat, corn, and soybeans erased gains as crude cooled and markets stabilized.

A new mishnah! With basic directions as to how to make and shape the grain-offerings, with a clear prohibition against "chametz"/leaven, except for 2 specific grain-offerings. Including the source from the Torah to prohibit leaven from the altar. Plus, does each act with offering count as a prohibition (kneading, shaping, baking) or just as one? It's a case of a generalization and a specification, followed by a general case again. The specific statement therefore comes to teach something about the general statement. Note that proximity in the original text matters.

If you've ever wondered where your wheat flour is coming from, who is milling it (and how), or how it came to be such an important staple, then this episode might be for you. Dr. Rebecca Sharpless speaks with host Scott Catey about People of the Wheat: Culture and Cultivation in North Texas (U Texas Press, 2026). This book examines the history of wheat in the six counties of the North Texas wheat belt, and how wheat growing, milling, and baking shaped the people and culture there. In the national imaginary, America's amber fields of grain lie in the country's center, but for more than a century, they also grew across one pocket of the South: North Texas. From the 1840s to the 1970s, the state's agriculture, dominated in lore by cotton in the east and livestock in the open range, was heavily invested in the cultivation, processing, sale, and consumption of wheat. Recalling a forgotten history, Rebecca Sharpless shows how the rhythms of the wheat harvest—and the evolution of the milling, distribution, and baking industries—governed daily life in what is now known as the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. In the 1840s, Anglo settlers discovered that grain flourished in North Texas and quickly built an economy that included wheat in fields, mills, and kitchens. After the Civil War, hand labor gave way to mechanization, greatly increasing production. Commercial bakeries churned out novel confections, and big cities were built on the bounty of the countryside. In the second half of the twentieth century, as production moved northward, industrial milling and baking declined, but home baking boomed, flour advertising supported regional music, and wheat fortunes financed the region's cultural life. Sharpless covers 150 years of wheat's very human history and shows how the labor that cultivated it, the sustenance it provided, and the prosperity it generated left an indelible mark on the people and institutions of Texas. Dr. Rebecca Sharpless is a Professor of History at Texas Christian University. She specializes in Gender & Sexuality, Texas History, and American History. She is the author of three previous books: Grain and Fire: A History of Baking in the American South (2022); Cooking in Other Women's Kitchens: Domestic Workers in the South, 1865-1960 (2010); and Fertile Ground, Narrow Choices: Women on Texas Cotton Farms, 1900-1940 (1999).

Einkorn ancient grain, fresh milled flour, and regenerative farming are changing the way we understand wheat, gluten, and nutrient density. In this episode, we explore how ancient grains like einkorn differ from modern wheat — and why fresh milling preserves more nutrition than store-bought flour.On this Wellness Wednesday episode, I sit down with a regenerative farmer Jade Koyle who is growing ancient grains with deep care for the soil and a commitment to true nutrient density.We discuss:• What makes einkorn genetically different from modern hybridized wheat• How regenerative farming practices improve soil health and mineral content• The complexity of einkorn's gluten structure and digestibility• Why fresh-milled flour retains more vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats• Practical ways to begin baking with ancient grains at homeLet me know in the comments, have you baked with einkorn or milled your own grain yet?

This week on Kitchen Tape, Rose sits down with Yossy Arefi  while Crystal takes a break— New York Times bestselling author, NYT contributor, and creator of the Substack Have a Little Something — to talk about what it means to fully author a baking book from the inside out. We dig into Yossy's unique practice of writing, styling, and photographing her own work, how that continuity shapes voice and restraint, and why everyday baking resonates most when it's grounded, seasonal, and deeply usable. How writing for a cookbook differs from her usual work with NYT, etc. The conversation moves between creative control, reader trust, and the quiet rigor behind recipes that feel effortless but are anything but.Mentioned in this episode:• Sweeter off the Vine: Fruit Desserts for Every Season• Snacking Cakes: Simple Treats for Anytime Cravings• Snacking Bakes: Simple Recipes for Cookies, Bars, Brownies, Cakes, and More• Nigel Slater• Yotam Ottolenghi• Ron Ben-Israel• The Last Course by Claudia Fleming• Pure Dessert by Alice Medrich• Good to the Grain by Kim Boyce• Apartment 2B Baking Co.• Apt 2 Bread by Carla Finley• L'Appartement 4F• Cherry Bombe — Cooks & Books event (2022)

Capitalism by its nature produces crises and, for the last century, states have responded by imposing austerity measures on the public. Economist Clara Mattei argues that austerity is actually a bludgeon to entrench elite power and repress workers' aspirations for a more egalitarian society.

"You shall have a tassel to look at and remember all the commandments of the LORD." Following the catastrophe of unbelief, God graciously provides instructions for when Israel finally enters the land. Grain offerings, drink offerings, and sin offerings are detailed. A man who gathers sticks on the Sabbath is put to death, demonstrating the seriousness of God's commands. And tassels on garments serve as constant reminders of covenant faithfulness. In this chapter, we see that God's law is meant to permeate all of life.  The Rev. David Boisclair, senior pastor at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Overland, MO, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Numbers 15.  To learn more about Our Redeemer Lutheran, visit ourredeemerstl.org. The Book of Numbers is far more than an ancient census report. It is the story of a people learning to trust God in the wilderness, and failing, and finding grace anyway.  In this series, host Pastor Phil Booe and guest pastors walk through the Old Testament book of Numbers chapter by chapter. We follow Israel from Sinai toward the Promised Land, through grumbling and rebellion, fiery serpents and a talking donkey, faithless spies and faithful priests. The journey is hard, the failures are many, and God remains faithful to a faithless people.  These ancient accounts point us to Christ. The bronze serpent lifted on a pole points to the cross. The rock struck for water points to the one struck for us. The high priest whose death frees the manslayer points to the Great High Priest whose death sets us free forever. Join us as we discover that the wilderness has more to teach us than we ever expected.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

We are back again, this series has been doing well so we keep on truckin. This episode is a little different. I have already done a full episode on rye whiskey. So we go into different topics and types of rye grain. Super nerdy but alot of fun. Hope you enjoy. And a special shoutout to Zach Smith. For the Slide show.https://www.instagram.com/zsmithwhiskeyandmixology?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==Badmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3Rye is highly valued in whiskey production because it provides a bold, assertive flavor profile that contrasts with the sweetness of corn-based spirits like bourbon.Here is why it is considered a "good" grain for whiskey:1. Distinctive Flavor ProfileRye is best known for its "spicy" kick.Spice & Heat: It commonly imparts notes of black pepper, clove, cinnamon, and nutmeg.Complexity: Beyond spice, it often adds herbal (dill, mint), floral, and fruity (apple, citrus) undertones that provide a drier, more nuanced finish than other grains.2. Structural Role in CocktailsRye's intensity makes it a favorite for mixology.Balance: Its bold, spicy character "cuts through" sugar and vermouth in classic cocktails like the Manhattan, Old Fashioned, and Sazerac, preventing them from becoming cloyingly sweet.Longevity: Because its flavor is so robust, it maintains its presence even when diluted or mixed. 3. Agricultural ResilienceHistorically, rye became a staple for American whiskey because it is an exceptionally hardy crop.Climate: It thrives in cooler, northern climates and can survive harsh winters that might kill other grains.Soil: It grows well in poor soil conditions where wheat or corn might struggle, making it a reliable source for early distillers in places like Pennsylvania and Maryland.4. Technical Characteristics in DistillingEnzymatic Activity: Rye has high enzyme activity, which helps convert starches into fermentable sugars during the mashing process.Ferulic Acid: Rye contains ferulic acid, which specific yeast strains convert into 4-vinyl guaiacol—the compound responsible for the signature clove-like and spicy notes.5. Historical SignificanceRye was the first distilled American whiskey, predating bourbon by decades. It was the "daily drink" of early America, and its recent resurgence is largely driven by a renewed interest in these historical roots and artisanal craft distilling.Rye is a "nerdy" grain because its physical and chemical properties make it notoriously difficult to distill, yet those same challenges produce its unique sensory profile.1. The Chemistry of "Spice" (Ferulic Acid)Rye's signature "kick" isn't actually heat; it's chemistry.Precursor: Rye is dense in ferulic acid, a phenolic compound bound in the grain's cell walls.Transformation: During mashing and fermentation, enzymes and heat release this acid, which then undergoes decarboxylation to become 4-vinyl guaiacol (4-VG).Sensory Result: 4-VG is the specific volatile phenol responsible for the distinct clove, black pepper, and medicinal notes that define rye. These compounds trigger trigeminal nerve responses (physical sensations like tingling or dryness) rather than just standard taste buds. 2. The "Sticky" Problem (Beta-Glucans)Distillers often describe rye as a "nightmare" to work with due to its structural biology.The Mucilage: Rye contains high levels of beta-glucans and pentosans (hemicellulose). When mixed with hot water, these create a thick, gummy "porridge" or mucilage.Operational Risk: This "goo" can become so viscous it clogs pumps, sticks to heating coils, and causes excessive foaming in the fermenter.The Fix: Modern distillers often add exogenous beta-glucanase enzymes or perform a specific "beta-glucan rest" at 104°F–113°F to break these chains before they seize the equipment.

U.S. commodity markets finished lower Thursday, but soybean oil continued to shine, reaching its highest level since September 2023 amid a volatile trading day. Mike Zuzolo of Global Commodity Analytics breaks down the trade.

Grain markets are likely to remain rangebound as Prairie farmers prepare for another seeding season, according to Neil Townsend, market analyst with GrainFox. Townsend characterizes the current point in the cycle as “lower for longer,” not because prices are poised to collapse, but because sustained upside momentum will be difficult to achieve.

Joe's Premium Subscription: www.standardgrain.comGrain Markets and Other Stuff Links —Apple PodcastsSpotifyTikTokYouTubeFutures and options trading involves risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone.Trade drama is back in the headlines. President Trump is threatening higher tariffs on countries that fail to honor trade agreements. Following last week's Supreme Court ruling, the EU announced it would pause ratification of its agreement, while India is deferring talks on its own deal. Despite the legal setback, the White House says it remains committed to its trade agenda and is exploring alternative tools to implement tariffs. Markets clearly reacted to the renewed uncertainty, with stocks under pressure to start the week.Grain markets felt the ripple effects. Soybean and wheat futures moved lower Monday as traders weighed the potential impact of trade disruptions and retaliation tied to the newly announced 15% global tariff. Corn futures, meanwhile, managed to hold steady. When policy uncertainty rises, volatility often follows — and that theme remains firmly in play.Export data offered a few surprises. US corn shipments exceeded expectations for the third straight week, posting a very strong year-over-year gain. Wheat inspections also came in above trade guesses. Soybean shipments, however, disappointed and continue to reflect uneven demand patterns. China remained a major buyer, accounting for roughly half of weekly inspections.USDA also reported a fresh flash sale of corn to Colombia, adding to an already solid sales pace this marketing year. Demand for US corn has been a notable bright spot recently, especially when compared to other segments of the export complex.Weather and field conditions remain a major talking point in South America. Brazil's soybean harvest is advancing at its slowest pace in several years, with rains and longer crop cycles creating delays. Planting progress for Brazil's second corn crop is also lagging last year's pace, which could become increasingly important for global feed grain supply expectations.Outside of grains, US consumers continue to show remarkable resilience in the face of high beef prices. Despite record price levels, demand remains strong as buyers adapt by shifting toward more affordable cuts and smaller portions. The protein story remains a powerful force across the broader agricultural landscape.As always, volatility, policy, and global production trends remain key market drivers.

Ancient Greece and Rome are venerated throughout our society — including by the far right. Is this a misappropriation and misuse of the ideals of Greco-Roman antiquity? Classical scholar Curtis Dozier argues that when white nationalists appeal to ancient thinkers to justify their reactionary ideas, there is surprisingly much to draw from.

Parshas Terumah: Gold and Grain The Mishkan is built from gold, wood, and precious stones. But at its center stand two vessels that mirror each other: the Aron and the Shulchan. One holds the Torah from Heaven. The other holds bread made by human hands. This episode explores why the Shulchan was crowned like the Aron, and what it teaches about the balance between Torah and parnassah. Drawing on Rashi and the Lubavitcher Rebbe, we uncover a powerful truth: material life and spiritual purpose are not rivals. When aligned, they become one structure capable of holding the Divine Presence.
