In this episode of the Cookbook Love Podcast, I'm joined by Suzanne Lenzer, food stylist, writer, and author of Peckish: Suggestions for the Sophisticated Snacker. Suzanne's approach to food and cooking invites us to consider not just what we eat, but how and why, with more spontaneity and less convention. Suzanne shares how she structured Peckish around “vessels” like On Toast, In Jars, Napkins Only, and more, making it easier (and more fun) to plan a night of grazing or to turn an afternoon snack into a small ritual of care. In today's show we talk about: What mindful snacking actually looks like Why “Girl Dinner” became a cultural moment How to structure meals (or non-meals!) around what you're really craving The beauty of Peckish as both a guide and an invitation If you've ever felt the joy of assembling a little plate that speaks to what you want in that moment, this conversation is for you. Let's celebrate the joy of eating well, one thoughtful snack at a time.

Text: Mark 10:17–31 Coleton taught from the story of the rich young ruler, highlighting how a man who seemed to have everything—morality, status, and wealth—still lacked the one thing that truly mattered: Jesus. His story shows us three important lessons we must learn if we want to experience eternal life and freedom. 1. Good Moral Behavior Cannot Earn Eternal Life The rich man did everything right—he kept the commandments, approached Jesus with humility, and even received Jesus' love—but he still lacked something. Jesus identified the issue: the man didn't want Jesus, he wanted eternal life on his own terms. Eternal life isn't a reward for good behavior; it's a relationship with Jesus. Jesus made this clear: “You still lack one thing… come, follow me.” (v. 21) Eternal life is not about what you've done; it's about who you're with. Jesus offers Himself, not a checklist. And many religious people today are in danger of missing Jesus because they substitute routines for relationship. “Eternal life is life with Jesus, not just doing things for Jesus.” 2. You Will Always Sacrifice for What You Worship Jesus asked the man to give up his wealth because it had become his god. But the man walked away sad. Why? Because even though he said no to Jesus, he still sacrificed something—his joy—for his idol. Coleton showed how everyone sacrifices for what they worship: money, power, approval, comfort—all demand sacrifice. The question isn't will you sacrifice? but for whom or what will you sacrifice? The promise of Jesus is that any sacrifice for Him is always worth it. He gives back more—both in this life and the one to come. 3. Many People Stay Trapped Because They Choose To The man recognized something was missing in his life. He came to Jesus looking for answers. Jesus gave him one—but the man chose to walk away sad. Like a monkey caught in a trap holding onto rice, the man wouldn't let go of what was trapping him. His imprisonment was a choice. Many of us are the same. Jesus offers freedom, joy, and life—but we reject it because we won't let go of control, sin, pride, or pain. Coleton challenged the listeners to stop choosing captivity when Jesus offers freedom. ⸻ Discussion Questions: 1. In what ways are you tempted to treat eternal life like a reward instead of a relationship? 2. Are there areas in your life where you're “doing the right things” but missing closeness with Jesus? 3. What are you currently sacrificing for the thing you worship most? Is it worth the cost? 4. Jesus promises more than what you sacrifice—do you trust Him to provide in the places you feel afraid to let go? 5. Is there something you know Jesus is calling you to let go of—but you've been holding onto it? What's keeping you from releasing it? 6. Have you ever felt like the rich man—sad, stuck, or spiritually dry—despite doing everything “right”? What do you think Jesus might be inviting you into instead? ⸻ Quoted Authors and Illustrations: • John Maxwell “A wise person learns from his mistakes. A wiser one learns from others' mistakes.” • David Foster Wallace (from his 2005 Kenyon College commencement address) “There is no such thing as not worshipping. Everybody worships… Worship money and you will never have enough… Worship your body and beauty and you will always feel ugly… Worship power and you will feel weak… Worship your intellect… you will end up feeling like a fraud.” • Robert Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance “There's an old South Indian Monkey Trap… The only reason [the monkey] can't be free is because of his own choices.” ⸻ Key Takeaways: • Eternal life isn't earned—it's received through a relationship with Jesus. • Everyone sacrifices for what they worship. The only safe place to direct that sacrifice is Jesus. • Sometimes the reason we stay stuck is not because there's no way out—but because we won't let go of what's trapping us.

His brothers mock his messianic claims, and the religious leaders plot his death. Jesus slips into the festival quietly, then teaches boldly in the temple, challenging both popular misconceptions and legalistic hypocrisy. He warns against superficial judgment and calls for a discerning look “beneath the surface.”Sermon Notes • Recap of John series: six months in Galilee (feeding 5,000, walking on water, “I am the bread of life”). • Many disciples fell away (John 6:60–71); Peter's confession (“To whom would we go?”) set the tone for wholehearted follow-through. • Today: chapter 7, “Trouble – Part 1,” focusing on mounting opposition from family, the crowd, and religious authorities. • Scripture Passage • John 7:1–10: Family skepticism—brothers urge Jesus to seek fame in Jerusalem; Jesus refuses, pointing out that the world hates him because he exposes its sin. • John 7:14–24: Mid-festival, Jesus teaches in the temple; crowd astonished at his authority; he contrasts truth-seeking and self-seeking motives, rebukes their Sabbath-law hypocrisy, and urges “stop judging by mere appearances, but judge correctly.”Main Points 1. Opposition from Family & World • Jesus' own brothers don't believe (v 5–7); the “world” (festival crowd) hates the truth about sin (v 7–10). 2. Discern True Authority • A God-sent teacher speaks truth to convicts the heart, not just pleases the crowd (v 16–18). • Authentic ministry seeks God's glory, not self-glory. 3. Judge Beneath the Surface • Legalistic enforcement (e.g., Sabbath laws) can hide self-righteous pride (v 19–24). • Jesus calls us to discern heart-motives, not merely outward compliance. • Illustrations & Stories • Festival Tension: Imagine navigating Jerusalem crowds amid threats on your life—Jesus' courage in teaching under pressure. • Youth Leader Story: A new believer, Troy, faced condemnation for imperfect attendance and dress, while his inner transformation went largely unseen—highlighting the danger of focusing on appearances over heart change.Application • When Truth Offends: Notice where you resist honest conviction; embracing Jesus on his terms may conflict with family, culture, or personal comfort. • Discern Teachers & Messages: Does this teaching seek God's glory by calling you to heart-change, or does it pander to what feels good? • Cultivate “Beneath the Surface” Vision: In your relationships and church life, look for genuine fruit of the Spirit rather than mere outward conformity.ClosingPastor Nathan led a prayer inviting the Holy Spirit to transform our hearts, strengthen authentic unity, and empower us to live out justice, mercy, and love—“more of You and less of us.” • Resources & Links • Bible Passage: John 7:1–24 (NLT) • John Journals: Available in the foyer for note-taking#hillschurch #beencouraged #nathanbell #evertonhills #brisbanechurch #brisbane #wesleyanmethodistchurch #hillschurchsermon
In today's episode, we're unpacking a concept I teach inside the Get Paid to Get Published program about defining Your Cookbook Concept. Using a powerful metaphor —the Dinner Party Analogy—we'll explore how to define what your book is really about, who it's for, what's on the “menu,” and why it matters in today's publishing landscape. Today you'll learn why you, the author, are the host of your book's journey, how to identify and describe your ideal reader, and different cookbook concept types—from ingredients to holidays, what makes your book stand out in the market, and what is a competition study.

6th July 2025Find out more about Jesushttps://hillschurch.org.au/jesusFind the answers to life's biggest questions. Try Alpha.https://hillschurch.org.au/alphaCan we pray for you? Request prayer.https://hillschurch.org.au/ and click 'Prayer Request' Button.To give/tithe to the work of Hills Church, follow the link belowhttps://hillschurch.org.au/giveSermon overviewIn this sermon from John 6:60–71, Pastor Nathan concludes the “bread of life” discourse. After feeding the 5,000 and walking on water, Jesus' teaching about eating His flesh and drinking His blood provokes offense and desertion among many followers. Yet Peter's bold confession—“Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life”—models wholehearted commitment. We're challenged to follow Jesus on His terms, not ours, fully surrendering every part of our lives to the true Bread from heaven.Sermon NotesIntroductionPastor Nathan situates us in the ongoing John series (running through Easter), noting the heavy travel between Galilee, Jerusalem, and beyond. Crowds have witnessed two major miracles—feeding 5,000 on the mountainside and Jesus walking on the sea—so expectations for a deliverer are high. Last week ended with Jesus' declaration, “I am the true bread that came down from heaven,” setting the stage for today's difficult teaching and its fallout.Scripture PassageJohn 6:60–71 (NLT)Main PointsHard Teaching Reveals True DisciplesJesus' call to “eat my flesh and drink my blood” shocks many into desertion, exposing shallow faith based on signs rather than the Savior Himself.Dependence on the Spirit“The Spirit alone gives life” (v63); human effort and intellect cannot bridge the gap—only divine enabling draws us to Christ.Wholehearted CommitmentPeter's confession (“Lord, to whom would we go?”) models surrender: recognizing Jesus as the sole source of life and truth, even when His demands are hard.Illustrations & StoriesMiracle Recap: Feeding the 5,000, followed by the storm-tossed crossing and Jesus walking on water.“I AM” Statements: Jesus layers heavy claims—Son of Man, heavenly origin, bread of life—to press His identity and mission.Missionary Story: William Cohen in 19th-century India resisted renouncing Christ under threat, declaring, “Though none go with me, still I will follow.” His martyrdom ignited widespread faith.ApplicationExamine Your Motives: Are you following Jesus for convenience or for His character and promises, even when “His terms” conflict with your comfort?Surrender Control: Identify areas—wealth, opinions, relationships—where you cling to “your way” rather than God's way.Embrace the Spirit's Work: Trust the Holy Spirit to equip you for the hard demands of discipleship; human striving falls short.Commit Anew: Like Peter, affirm “To whom would we go?” and resolve to follow Jesus without reserve, regardless of cost.ClosingPastor Nathan invited the congregation to respond by singing “Christ Is Enough” and the hymn “I Have Decided to Follow Jesus,” making a communal commitment to stick with Christ through every trial and teaching challenge.Resources & LinksBible Passage: John 6:60–71 (NLT)Next Steps: Reflect on where you've made Jesus a “hobby” rather than Lord; journal prayerfully about areas needing full surrender.#hillschurch #beencouraged #nathanbell #evertonhills #brisbanechurch #brisbane #wesleyanmethodistchurch #hillschurchsermon

This week Grant and Brooke consider images as enhancements to memoir. Historically publishers have tended to regard images in memoir with reservation, but that's been changing in recent years. Guest Jennifer Croft's recent memoir, Homesick, is accompanied by her own Polaroids. When should photos be included, or central? And what are some other memoirs that have been improved by the addition of images? Whether to include images involves many considerations—from your reader, to style, to the interplay between words and image, and Jennifer Croft offers thoughtful insights around this and more. Jennifer Croft is the author of the illustrated memoir, Homesick, and the translator of Polish of Nobel laureate Olga Tokarczuk's Flights, for which she won the 2018 International Booker Prize. She won a 2022 Guggenheim Fellowship for her novel The Extinction of Irena Rey, the 2020 William Saroyan International Prize for Writing for Homesick. She is a founding editor of The Buenos Aires Review and has published her own work and numerous translations in The New York Times, The Los Angeles Review of Books, Granta, VICE, n+1, Electric Literature, Lit Hub, BOMB, and many more.

Over the years, I've coached hundreds of cookbook writers. And as a cookbook writer myself, I've noticed something: the way we write shifts with the seasons. So does the energy you all bring to your projects. Without a doubt, January and September are your power months. Something about the clean slate of the new year—or the back-to-school feeling of fall—makes it easy to say yes. The urgency feels good for a while. But urgency doesn't last. Pressure wears you out. And cookbook writing—at its best—is built on bringing the full you to the page, year-round. So today I want to offer another way. A way of writing that moves with the rhythm of summer. With more daylight. With more warmth. With more time to reflect, to gather, to savor, and to create. Summer isn't about pushing. It's about presence. And that's exactly what Cookbook Camp is built for. So, whether you're poolside with a notebook or cooking with the windows open, let's explore how this season can support your most nourishing work yet. Things We Mention In This Episode: Registration for Cookbook Camp, a guided summer experience to help you shape your concept, choose your publishing path, and start building the habits that lead to a finished book.

Multi-art creativity takes center stage in this conversation with Christian DeWild, a Folsom, California-based artist who seamlessly juggles music, literature, and visual art while working for an electrical contractor. Christian has just released his first single of 2025, "By Your Side," recorded on his analog Tascam system and he's the author of two published books including "Dead Flowers: Let's Get Married On Halloween" and "Some Days Are Ashes: Poems, Limericks, and Illustrations." In this episode, we explore Christian's unique approach to balancing multiple creative disciplines, his experience with self-publishing books, and the challenges that come with it. We discuss his obsessive relationship with art projects, his philosophical contemplations about creativity within the finite nature of life, and his active role in Folsom's blues scene. Christian shares insights about the importance of face-to-face networking for securing gigs, his transition to releasing only singles rather than full albums, and the varying timelines he experiences when finishing songs. Whether you're a multi-disciplinary artist or looking to expand your creative practice beyond music, this conversation offers perspectives on maintaining authenticity while pursuing diverse artistic passions.

Welcome to today's episode of the Cookbook Love Podcast! I'm thrilled to bring you a conversation with Kasey Lobb—a self-professed food nerd, registered dietitian nutritionist, and plant-based chef. Kasey is the author of The Gluten-Free Sourdough Cookbook, a flavorful new release that brings together her personal passion and professional expertise. Her new book marks a stirring new chapter for Kasey's personal and professional journey. Most days, you'll find her experimenting in the kitchen or tending to “Mother”—her well-loved gluten-free sourdough starter. For over 20 years, Kasey has helped clients transform their health through food, with a focus on food sensitivities and autoimmune conditions. With this cookbook, she's on a mission to help home bakers ditch dry, dense gluten-free breads and bake with confidence using accessible, nourishing ingredients the whole family will love. Kasey and her book designer Rae are both students inside my cookbook coaching programs—Cookbooks on KDP and Get Paid to Get Published—and it's been a joy to watch this cookbook come to life.

The preacher must freely preach the word of God in a way that is natural, yet prepared. In this sermon titled “Illustrations, Eloquence, and Humour,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones addresses the preacher's need for freedom in the pulpit. On one hand, some preachers are bound to a manuscript and never make eye contact with his people. On the other, the preacher is unprepared and forgets what he intended to say. He argues for a well-prepared outline. Additionally, as the man prepares his sermon, he must consider the use of illustrations. Many preachers focus heavily on stories as their sermon becomes nothing more than an exegesis of their own illustrations. The illustration in a sermon must never be an end to itself. They must be used carefully and minimally, only to illustrate the truth of Scripture. Dr. Lloyd-Jones continues his lecture with thoughts on eloquence and humor. While the apostle Paul was eloquent, eloquence was never his goal. We should be wary of preachers who are more concerned with how something is said rather than what is said. The same applies to humor. A humorous individual will certainly, and naturally, use humor in the pulpit. But this should never become the goal in preaching.
