In this explosive interview, Dr. Peter McCullough and epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher expose the untold history, ideology, and corruption behind the global vaccine narrative — from Cotton Mather and Louis Pasteur to Fauci and the modern mRNA era. They reveal shocking evidence of contaminated polio shots, untested childhood vaccine schedules, and the CDC's deceptive reporting tactics that have silenced doctors who dare to question “the science.” Together, they uncover how fear, power, and profit created a modern-day religion of vaccinology that has replaced faith in God with faith in pharmaceuticals. Dr. McCullough also dives deep into the disturbing genetic chaos caused by mRNA shots — linking them to turbo cancers, blood clots, dementia, infertility, and transgenerational harm. They also discuss the alarming normalization of disease, the rise of autism and gender confusion, and the moral collapse of medicine that's putting children at risk. This is one of the most eye-opening conversations ever released on the Rebecca Weiss Podcast — a must-watch for anyone who values truth, freedom, and medical autonomy.

Episode: 3334 In Praise of Humble Lint. Today highlighting a former fabric byproduct.
Louis Pasteur (1822-1895) was one of the greatest scientists of all time. His discoveries in vaccines, pasteurization, and germ theory have literally saved millions of lives.But he was more than just a microbiologist or chemist. He was a man who saw that true science points to God.Pasteur is often credited with saying:“The more I study nature, the more I stand amazed at the work of the Creator.”Louis PasteurEvery new discovery wasn't a reason to boast in human knowledge—it was a reason to marvel at divine wisdom.Take time today to look at God's creation and see how great God is. Step outside. Look at the sky, a tree, or even the smallest flower, and remember this is God's handiwork.Lift up your eyes on high and see:who created these?Isaiah 40:26 (ESV)God has made it clear that His creation reveals who He is, and God holds people accountable to recognize Him.For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made.Romans 1:18-25 (ESV)Don't suppress the truth.Don't choose to become a fool.Like Pasteur, choose to be amazed by the Creator.Before I go, I'd like to share a blessing with you from the Old Testament.“May the Lord bless and protect you; may the Lord's face radiate with joy because of you; may he be gracious to you, show you his favor, and give you his peace.”Numbers 6:24-26 (The Living Bible)Until next time … be the reason someone smiles today.

Durante dois dias, especialistas brasileiros e franceses se reúnem no Fórum do Amanhã Paris 2025, aberto nesta segunda-feira (29), no Hôtel de l'Industrie, no centro da capital francesa. O evento discute temas como biodiversidade, mudanças climáticas, saúde, povos indígenas e movimentos sociais. A troca de experiências visa ampliar a cooperação entre os dois países, por meio de conferências, apresentações de pesquisas, livros, exposições, filmes e shows. Maria Paula Carvalho, da RFI em Paris Os convidados são profissionais que celebram a relação de mais de duzentos anos entre o Brasil e a França, como explica Sophie Tzitzichvili, fundadora da Associação "Os Aprendizes da Esperança" e diretora artística do Fórum do Amanhã Paris. "Nós somos estrangeiros, e o estrangeiro vai ser sempre visto como um colonizador. Não há a menor dúvida. Porém, é uma questão de consciência, de respeito e de postura: de se colocar à disposição das populações, e não o contrário." O impacto social de empresas francesas no Brasil e a cooperação bilateral em ensino superior estiveram entre os temas de destaque. Uma das mesas-redondas tratou da formação de jovens pesquisadores. Doutor em História pela Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF), Everton Viera Barbosa é pesquisador na Universidade Sorbonne Paris-Nord. "Eu vim falar sobre um projeto do qual faço parte, chamado 'Arquétipo Transatlântico', submetido no ano passado por uma equipe brasileira e francesa de pesquisadores e historiadores de diversas universidades, no quadro de um projeto do CAPES-COFECUB", explica em entrevista à RFI. "É um projeto que começou este ano e que trata das relações entre intelectuais brasileiros e franceses em relação à História, dentro da Escola dos Annales e de Frankfurt. Então, há uma relação entre França, Brasil e Alemanha, no período que vai de 1945, após a Segunda Guerra Mundial, até 1968, quando ocorreram as manifestações estudantis de maio na França e, no Brasil, o AI-5, durante a Ditadura Militar", diz. Estatisticamente, há mais estudantes brasileiros em universidades francesas do que o contrário. No período 2023-2024, eram 5.527 brasileiros no ensino superior na França, contra 238 franceses em instituições de educação brasileiras. Em 2020, a França foi o sétimo país mais procurado por estudantes brasileiros. No topo da lista estão Argentina, Portugal e Estados Unidos. Entre as dificuldades para o intercâmbio acadêmico estão o financiamento, os custos de logística e mobilidade, os vistos e as diferenças linguísticas. Os temas mais abordados por pesquisadores brasileiros na França são biodiversidade, mudanças climáticas, gestão de recursos naturais, agricultura e saúde. Serge Borg, ex-adido de cooperação linguística e educativa da Francofonia no Brasil e professor da Universidade Marie e Louis Pasteur, de Besançon, destaca que França e Brasil têm uma parceria sólida e duradoura. "É uma cooperação ampla, rica, sustentada pelas Secretarias de Educação de cada estado. Temos vários programas de promoção, bolsas acadêmicas e, por enquanto, a francofonia no Brasil está em ótima posição, apesar da concorrência com o espanhol e o inglês", diz. "Não podemos esquecer que o país com o qual a França tem a maior fronteira é o Brasil, com a Amazônia. Então, há problemáticas conjuntas dos dois lados da fronteira, e esta é uma parceria durável", acrescenta Serge Borg. .Outro painel foi dedicado às parcerias em inovação tecnológica e fitoterapia. O encontro explorou o potencial da medicina brasileira, nascida do encontro entre povos indígenas, europeus e africanos, integrando plantas medicinais, rituais e experiência cotidiana. Entre as empresas participantes está o laboratório francês Apis Flora, que produz própolis em Ribeirão Preto, interior de São Paulo, desde 2017, tornando-se o principal produtor desse produto originário de abelhas no Brasil. O grupo que atua em quase 40 países, tem um faturamento anual de R$ 120 milhões no Brasil, onde a empresa cresceu 160% nos últimos três anos. "O Brasil, hoje em dia, é uma filial e um país muito importante, que nos permite ter um abastecimento de matéria-prima e plantas que são especialidades do grupo", disse Stéphane Lehning, presidente do laboratório Apis Flora, em entrevista à RFI. A empresa Meu Amour Brasil produz peças com uso do Capim Dourado, que nasce no Jalapão. "É um artesanato que preserva a natureza e que é um tesouro do Brasil, que tem que ser conhecido pelo mundo", diz a fundadora da empresa, Isabela Cardoso. As discussões ao longo desses dois dias resultarão em um documento destacando os principais temas e desafios para o futuro, que poderá ser compartilhado com órgãos públicos e privados. O encontro ganha mais relevância às vésperas da COP 30 no Brasil. Um desfile de moda e um concerto de choro encerram a programação do Fórum do Amanhã Paris 2025.

In dieser Folge werfen Michi und Moritz einen intensiven Blick auf das Leben und Wirken von Louis Pasteur, einem der bekanntesten Namen der Wissenschaftsgeschichte. Vom jungen Kunstliebhaber aus der französischen Provinz zum Pionier der Mikrobiologie führte Pasteurs Weg über Kristalle, Weinsäure und Gärung bis hin zur Entwicklung bahnbrechender Impfstoffe. Die beiden diskutieren seine Arbeiten zur Widerlegung der Spontanzeugung, die Entdeckung der Pasteurisierung, seinen Beitrag zur Seuchenbekämpfung und seinen manchmal schwierigen Charakter. Wie politisch war Pasteur wirklich? Warum gilt er als Held, obwohl viele seiner Erkenntnisse auf anderen Forschern basierten? Und wie rettete er mit einem ungetesteten Impfstoff das Leben eines Jungen und veränderte damit die Medizin für immer? Eine Episode über Wissenschaft, Macht, Hygiene und das Streben nach Unsterblichkeit im Namen der Forschung.

In May 1886 a physician in Watertown, Dakota Territory, was bitten by what press reports said was a “mad dog.” The doctor immediately booked steamship passage, “gone to Paris,” the papers said, “to consult Pasteur.” Just the year previous, 1885, Louis Pasteur had announced discovery of his somewhat tortuous vaccination procedure for rabies.
In this special collaboration with History Daily, we present a double feature exploring two pivotal moments in history.First, you'll hear the story of Lewis and Clark's return after successfully completing the first U.S. overland journey to the Pacific Ocean.Then, you'll learn how French biologist Louis Pasteur developed a method of heating liquids to destroy harmful bacteria - a process that would come to bear his name.Hear more episodes from History Daily here.-----------Join the History of Fresh Produce Club for ad-free listening, bonus episodes, book discounts and access to an exclusive chatroom community.Support us!Share this episode with your friendsGive a 5-star ratingWrite a review -----------Subscribe to our biweekly newsletter here for extra stories related to recent episodes, book recommendations, a sneak peek of upcoming episodes and more.-----------Step into history - literally!

It's another baffling dive into 1980s biographies written for children! The podcasting siblings Bambi and Jamie Chambers learn all about RFK Jr.'s ultimate nemesis (i.e. a pioneer of germ theory and vaccine science) when they read The Value of Believing In Yourself: The Story of Louis Pasteur. This time our hero is absent for half the book while we learn all about a stick-wielding German kid named Joey who enjoys tormenting dogs and is gifted with rabies as punishment, before becoming the first person ever cured from the deadly disease. Instead of a single science fact, we instead learn that vaccines are magic and contain miniaturized British soldiers equipped with darkvision and bayonets. And if you want to also achieve success you must clearly wander around in public muttering "I believe I can!" after getting blasted on chemical fumes.Support the show and stay tuned with us on social media and discover more on our website: http://www.chainsawhistory.com
Des centaines de profs de français vont se retrouver à la fin de la semaine pour le 16è Congrès mondial de la FIPF, la Fédération internationale des profs de français. La francophonie est-elle une utopie ? Du 10 au 17 juillet 2025, la ville de Besançon en France accueillera cette seizième édition du Congrès Mondial des professeurs de français. Cette année, le thème retenu est : «les utopies francophones en tout genre». Un thème dont s'est saisi le linguiste Jean-Louis Chiss, linguiste qui prononcera la conférence inaugurale ! Besançon n'a pas été choisie au hasard. En effet, cette située dans l'est de la France est la ville natale de Victor Hugo, de Louis Pasteur, mais aussi de Charles Fourier, qui fut un philosophe utopiste. La discipline du FLE (Française Langue Étrangère) en tant que telle, n'est pas si ancienne puisqu'elle est créée en 1969, mais c'est dans les années 1980 qu'apparaît «la maîtrise de FLE». Mais en réalité, c'est une création de la fin du XIXè siècle avec l'Alliance française, dont l'un des objectifs était de développer l'enseignement du français dans le monde ! Le terme «francophonie» apparait dans les années 1860 sous la plume de Onésime Reclus, anarchiste libertaire, mais aussi défenseur de la colonisation, ce qui a rendu ce mot éminemment politique... On a toujours des discussions sur l'avenir de la francophonie. Mais ma réticence vient de la définition même du mot «francophonie». Jean-Louis Chiss Avec l'évolution de la technologie, l'IA a pris une place prépondérante dans les apprentissages, à tel point qu'on ne peut plus s'en passer. 80% des élèves auraient déjà utilisé l'IA générative pour faire leurs devoirs. Mais comment utiliser l'Intelligence Artificielle pour développer la réflexivité des élèves et les inciter à se poser des questions ? Thomas Ricart a créé le site Ecrivor pour «donner le temps de travailler» et l'envie d'écrire aux élèves et faire gagner du temps aux enseignants. L'IA ne peut pas tout, notamment sur des problématiques de langue. Il faut l'orienter dans son travail pour mieux aider ses élèves ! Thomas Ricart, développeur du site Ecrivor Invités : - Jean-Louis CHISS, linguiste, professeur émérite en sciences du langage à l'Université Sorbonne Nouvelle. Il prononcera la conférence inaugurale - Thomas Ricart, développeur du site Internet baptisé Ecrivor, utilisé par 500 professeurs de toutes les matières qui nécessitent de la production d'écrits.

L'émission 28 minutes du 05/07/2025 Ce samedi, Renaud Dély décrypte l'actualité avec le regard international de nos clubistes : Juan Jose Dorado, correspondant espagnol à Paris, Martial Ze Belinga, économiste et sociologue, Anna Kowalska, correspondante de la télévision publique polonaise TVP et la dessinatrice de presse à l'hebdomadaire allemand “Stern”, Dorthe Landschulz.La climatisation : une solution démagogique pour lutter contre le réchauffement climatique ?Alors que ce début d'été 2025 est marqué par des températures caniculaires dans toute l'Europe, la question de l'adaptation aux vagues de chaleur devient pressante. En France, entre aménagement des horaires de travail, réflexion sur l'urbanisme et refonte des infrastructures, les pistes apparaissent nombreuses. Pourtant, c'est davantage la climatisation qui s'est invitée au cœur d'un débat de plus en plus idéologique. Marine Le Pen (RN) a promis un « grand plan climatisation » si elle accédait au pouvoir. Une déclaration qui n'a pas manqué de faire réagir à gauche, notamment Marine Tondelier (EELV), qui a raillé cette solution jugée simpliste face à une crise systémique. Le RN est-il en train de faire de la climatisation un étendard populiste dans la lutte contre le réchauffement climatique ? Ce débat autour de la “clim” est-il circonscrit à l'Hexagone ?Guerre en Ukraine : Trump va-t-il lâcher Kiev ?Voilà qui semble un aveu d'abandon. Après un récent échange téléphonique avec Vladimir Poutine, Donald Trump semble buter sur la réalité de la guerre en Ukraine, reconnaissant n'avoir obtenu “aucun progrès” sur le front diplomatique. Dans la foulée, Washington a annoncé, à la surprise générale, la suspension temporaire de plusieurs livraisons d'armes à Kiev. Officiellement, il s'agit de “préserver les intérêts américains”, selon la Maison Blanche, alors que les stocks de l'armée s'amenuisent. Un rééquilibrage stratégique ou le début d'un désengagement ? Nous recevons en invité de la semaine Cyril Thomas, maître de conférence en psychologie cognitive à l'Université Marie et Louis Pasteur et créateur de tours pour prestidigitateurs internationaux. Dans “Les Secrets de la prestidigitation. Comment les magiciens manipulent notre esprit”, paru chez Odile Jacob, le chercheur démontre et analyse comment les tours de magie “tirent parti du fonctionnement de notre attention, de nos failles cognitives et de nos biais de raisonnements”. Valérie Brochard nous donne des nouvelles de nos chers voisins belges. Leur ministre des Classes moyennes, des Indépendants et des PME, Éléonore Simonet, vient de proposer une mesure consistant à affilier les trafiquants condamnés au régime social des indépendants. Objectif : imposer rétroactivement leurs revenus illégaux, tout en suspendant leurs aides sociales.Olivier Boucreux décerne le titre d'employé de la semaine à Mette Frederiksen, surnommée “la dame de fer du Danemark”. Le pays assure, depuis le 1er juillet dernier, la présidence tournante de l'Union européenne. Portrait.Fred Pommier zappe sur la télévision britannique où, une nouvelle suscite nombre de commentaires : Charles III dit adieu au train royal, privilège des Windsor depuis 1977. Marjorie Adelson s'intéresse à un fait de société, celui des divorces gris, qui démontre que l'on n'hésite plus à divorcer passé les 50 ans.Enfin, ne manquez pas la question très intéressante de David Castello-Lopes : demain, y aura-t-il toujours des bananes ?28 minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Élisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05.

My guest on this week's Book Club podcast is science writer Carl Zimmer, whose new book Air-Borne: The Hidden History of the Life We Breathe explores the invisible world of the aerobiome – the trillions of microbes and particles we inhale every day. He tells me how Louis Pasteur's glacier experiments kicked off a forgotten scientific journey; how Cold War fears turned airborne research into a bioweapons race; and why the COVID-19 pandemic exposed a century-long misunderstanding about how diseases spread through the air.

*** OUR INTRO AND OUTRO WERE MUTED - PODCAST STARTS AT 35 SECONDS*** In this episode of The Balanced Bodies Blueprint, Coach Vinny Russo and Dr. Eryn Russo take a deep dive into the controversial views of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is now serving as Secretary of Health and Human Services. We dissect RFK Jr.'s support for terrain theory — an outdated belief rooted in Antoine Béchamp's “host theory” that argues disease comes from within the body, not from external pathogens. We contrast this with Louis Pasteur's germ theory, which forms the backbone of modern medicine. From questioning vaccines and antibiotics to promoting natural immunity and detox culture, RFK's ideology has the potential to disrupt decades of public health progress. We also analyze the ripple effects of his policies at HHS, including massive staff layoffs, restructuring of CDC and NIH programs, and his polarizing vaccine messaging campaign. Is RFK Jr. a visionary... or a risk to public health? We'll break down the science, the pseudoscience, and why this debate is far more than academic — it's about the future of medicine and public trust. Whether you're a science-minded skeptic or a curious critic of mainstream medicine, this episode is your go-to resource for understanding the RFK Jr. controversy through a balanced, evidence-based lens.

The discovery of vaccines shows that there's no discrepancy between science and Torah. Since the Torah is the Almighty's blueprint for creating the world, all the true scientific knowledge is in the Torah. Many of our sages, such as the Gaon of Vilna, the Shatzer Rov of London and the Chazon Ish were mathematical and scientific geniuses...
261. Edible Theology with Kendall Vanderslice Kendall's Website John 6:35 NIV "Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty." **Transcription Below** Kendall Vanderslice says "Yes, before you ask, that is my true name." Kendall is a baker and writer whose best thinking occurs as she works dough between her hands; scribbles down thoughts on pieces of parchment dusted in flour, until she can parse them out later before her keyboard. When she embarked on a career as a pastry chef, she found that her love of bread transformed the ways she read Scripture. Fascinated by God's use of food throughout the arc of the Gospel, she merged her work in the kitchen with academic study of food and theology. As a graduate of Wheaton College in Illinois (BA Anthropology), she began engaging questions of food and faith. Interested in commensality—or, the social dynamics of eating together—she studied food at Boston University (MLA Gastronomy). Her thesis on church meals sparked a range of theological questions, leading her to Duke University where she wrote a thesis on the theology of bread (MTS). In 2018 she was named a James Beard Foundation national scholar for her work on food and religion. She lives in Durham, North Carolina, with her beagle, Strudel, her sourdough starter Bread Astaire, and her brood of hens: Judith Jones and the Three Gourmands. Questions and Topics We Cover: You've studied so much about food and theology . . . are there any favorite lessons or resources that you still think about today? Is there any other science in the bread baking that is fascinating because it also has a richer, deeper spiritual meaning? What's one recipe in the book you're especially excited about?

Gospel Scripture: (all NIV) Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” Romans 3:24 “and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.” Romans 3:25 (a) “God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood.” Hebrews 9:22 (b) “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.” Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:11 “Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Luke 15:10 says “In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Romans 8:1 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” Ephesians 1:13–14 “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.” Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“ Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“ Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” **Transcription** Music: (0:00 – 0:09) Laura Dugger: (0:10 - 1:22) Welcome to The Savvy Sauce, where we have practical chats for intentional living. I'm your host, Laura Dugger, and I'm so glad you're here. Do you love to travel? If so, then let me introduce you to today's sponsor, Dream Seller Travel, a Christian-owned and operated travel agency. Check them out on Facebook or online at DreamSellerTravel.com. We were one of those families who joined in the COVID trend of baking our own bread. And so, I was fascinated even years later when I came across my guest for today, Kendall Vanderslice. She's an author and the founder of Edible Theology. And I've always appreciated different verses being brought to life, even things that we interact with every day, such as salt and yeast. But God has richer meanings for all of these. And so, I can't wait for Kendall to unpack these in our conversation today. Here's our chat. Welcome to The Savvy Sauce, Kendall. Kendall Vanderslice: (1:20 - 1:22) Thank you so much for having me. It's great to be here. Laura Dugger: (1:23 - 1:30) Would you mind just starting us off by sharing a bit about your background and what led you to the work that you get to do today? Kendall Vanderslice: (1:31 - 3:46) Sure. So, I have always loved baking. I always, you know, when I was a child, but especially once I was in middle school and high school, I had a lot of anxiety. And so, when I just ever, anytime I needed to work through any sort of scope of emotions, I would always turn to the kitchen. Working with my hands became this way to sort of ground me and help me find calm in the midst of sort of my mind just buzzing. I was also one of five kids. So, it was like after everyone had gone to bed and the kitchen was silent, was the only time there was quiet in my house. And so that was kind of always became the source of calm and grounding for me. And so, then when I graduated high school and was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life, once again, I turned to the kitchen as a way to try and process what I should do. And long story short, over time, I realized, oh, maybe actually this work of baking is the work that I am called to do. And so, I ended up taking a very circuitous path to get there. I took a gap year after high school. I went to undergrad and studied anthropology in college. And in that time, learned that I could, my love of food and my love of the kitchen, I could examine not just in the practice of cooking, but through an anthropological and historical lens, looking at how food shapes community and shapes culture and how culture shapes the foods that we eat. And so, from there, I went and worked in professional kitchens. But I had all these historical, cultural, theological questions kind of buzzing around at the same time. And, you know, I would go from my work at the bakery on Sunday morning. I would rush from work to church and I would receive communion each week with bread dough still stuck to my arms. And I started to question, what does this bread that I spend my whole morning baking have to do with this bread that I receive at the communion table? And so that just unlocked a whole new path of what I could do with bread and with my baking beyond just in the kitchen and larger understanding how it shapes our awareness of who God is and how God is at work in our lives and in our communities. Laura Dugger: (3:47 - 3:58) Wow, that is incredible. And even today, do you want to share a few of your offerings? Because edible theology was a new concept to me, and it's just fascinating what all you have going on. Kendall Vanderslice: (3:59 - 5:31) Yeah, absolutely. So, my primary program is that I teach a workshop called Bake and Pray. And so, this is a workshop where I teach people how to bake bread as a form of prayer. So, we look at the ways that bread is at play throughout the narrative of Scripture, kind of what it is that God is using, why it is that God is using bread as the storytelling device in the narrative of Scripture, and why Jesus would give us bread at the center of Christian worship. But then at the same time, we're learning how the actual practice of baking bread can be a way to connect with God, to find rest and to understand God's presence with us in a very tangible form. So, with that, I also have a handful of books. Most recently, I released a book called Bake and Pray. It's sort of this workshop in book form. It's a collection of recipes, but also a collection of liturgies, so that you have the tools you need to make your time in the kitchen a time of prayer. I call it a prayer book meets cookbook. But I also have a handful of other resources, a Bible study or a small group study called Worship at the Table, where it's actually helping people gather around the table and understand how God is at work through the table. And I have a podcast that it was a limited run. There are 30 episodes called Kitchen Meditations. They are short meditations to listen to while you cook, while you're in the kitchen. So, you can understand the food that you eat more fully and also understand how your time preparing it can be a time of worship. Laura Dugger: (5:31 - 5:50) I love that. And there's so much to unpack. But let's just start here with all the things that you've studied with food and theology and gone to school for years and put this into practice. Are there any favorite lessons that stand out and are maybe ones that you still think about today? Kendall Vanderslice: (5:51 - 6:57) Well, you know, one of my favorite books that helped shape my understanding of food is a book that was written in the 1960s by an Episcopal priest named Robert Carr-Capin. It's a book called The Supper of the Lamb. This book is just a delightful book to read. I think everybody should read it. Robert Carr-Capin was he was an Episcopal priest, but he was also a food writer and he also was a humor writer. He and his wife wrote a satirical column together. And so, The Supper of the Lamb is kind of the culmination of all three. It is this beautiful reflection on a theology of food in the table, but it is hilarious as well. And so, it is written as instructions to host a dinner party that is all built around preparing lamb for eight people in four different ways. And so, it's reflections on kind of, you know, this revelation, the imagery in the book of Revelation on the marriage supper of the lamb, But then taking that to be a very liberal dinner party that he hosts in his home. And it will forever change the way that you think about food and think about the table and think about how God cares about food. Laura Dugger: (6:58 - 7:13) Wow, that's interesting. And even a piece of that that you had highlighted before is community, that food draws us together in community. Are there any lessons or reflections you have on that topic as well? Kendall Vanderslice: (7:14 - 9:03) Yeah, I mean, so I spend my days traveling the country and visiting churches and eating meals with strangers all the time. This is such a central part of my work. So, my first book was a study of churches that eat together as their primary form of worship. And so, I had the opportunity to research 10 different churches across the country and look at how does this practice of eating together regularly shape their understanding of community, but also shape their understanding of church and shape their understanding of worship. And what I saw in that practice of traveling and eating with all of these churches was that communities that were built around the table, where their primary rhythm of gathering was this practice of eating together and talking together and dialoguing together. It created such resilience within these communities as they faced conflict and tension within them that their commitment to eating together, but then their understanding of these community meals as being intrinsically connected to the communion table, the meal of bread and the cup that they also shared, it shaped their ability to have conversations and wade into hard topics that communities might otherwise try to say, you know, kind of avoid, because what they believed was that, you know, the table that we gather at regularly is a place that can kind of manage and hold on to those tensions. And it's a place where these hard conversations can arise. But also at the end of each of these meals, we remember that we are going to share the bread and the cup together and that God has told us that we have been made one in the body and blood of Christ. And so, we have a responsibility to care for one another, even as we argue and disagree and have a really, you know, dig into these hard conversations. Laura Dugger: (9:04 - 9:58) That is beautiful. And I think of so many things when you say that. I'm in the book of Acts right now, my quiet time. And so, the early churches, they were breaking bread together daily. You see that as part of the impact, the outflow that came from that. And then just, I think, gratitude as you share, because I wasn't a follower of Jesus growing up. Our family went to church. And by the time I was in high school, all of my family were believers, including my siblings. I was the last one. But the church that we went to, we shared a meal together every Sunday. And those relationships are long lasting. Then you hear about what people are actually going through. It's such a natural way to dive deeper into that fellowship. And so, I love that you've traveled around and studied this. And I'm also curious if you've connected with one of my past guests, Sarah Harmeyer with the Neighbors Table. Kendall Vanderslice: (9:59 - 10:03) I am familiar with her work, but I have never actually connected with her. Laura Dugger: (10:04 - 10:09) OK, you two. I'll link her episode in the show notes, but I think you two would have a lot of fun together. Kendall Vanderslice: (10:09 - 10:14) Oh, great. Great, great. I know I've seen some of her tables on. She's the one who builds tables. Is that right? Laura Dugger: (10:14 - 10:15) Yes. Yes. Kendall Vanderslice: (10:15 - 10:19) Yes. OK. I have seen her tables on Instagram, and they look just absolutely beautiful. Laura Dugger: (10:19 - 10:37) I love it. Well, I'd also like to talk about your most recent book, because there's one part where you talk about the sacred language of bread. And I'd love for you just to walk us through some significant scriptures that highlight bread throughout the Bible. Kendall Vanderslice: (10:37 - 19:43) Yeah, absolutely. So, one of the reasons that I love to think of bread in terms of a language itself is because so often we think of our faith as being something that happens predominantly in our minds, that it is the things we believe about God and the words that we say to God. And it becomes this very sort of mental exercise of worshiping God in our heads. And we forget that the rest of our bodies and the rest of our lives are a part of how we know God as well, that we were created in these human bodies with all of these senses. And it's only through these senses that we get to know the world around us. And it's in getting to know this creation around us that we get to know our creator as well. And so when we think of our faith as happening something predominantly in our minds, then when we have these moments where we don't feel like God is present, or we feel like we don't hear from God, or we just don't have the energy to, you know, to read scripture every day, or we feel like we, you know, I'm just like praying and praying and praying, and I've just exhausted the words I have to say. Then it's easy for us to feel like we've been abandoned by God, that we're in this sort of spiritual dark place. But Jesus, he calls himself the word, but, you know, Jesus is the word that was present with God in the beginning. But Jesus also calls himself the bread of life. And Jesus identifies himself as something deeply tangible. And he offers his own body to us in the form of bread at the communion table. And so, Jesus is telling us that Jesus is present with us in this very tangible form, something that we can mix together with our hands, something that we can taste on our tongues, something that we can feel in our bellies as we digest it. That Jesus is telling us, like, I am with you in this deeply tangible way. And if you don't feel my presence, and if you don't, you know, hear what I am telling you, or you don't feel like I am listening to you, know that you can eat this bread and have this very tangible reminder that I have promised to remain present with you and to remain faithful to you. And so, the ways that we see this at work in Scripture, once we understand that, you know, bread is not just a metaphor, that bread is actually something very physical and tangible, a way that God speaks to us, I think it changes the way that we see bread show up in Scripture. That it's not just a handy metaphor that shows up every, all over the place in the Bible, but that Jesus is actually, that God is actually doing something through bread itself. So, the very first place that we see bread appear in Scripture is as early as Genesis 3:19, “It is by the sweat of your brow that you will eat your bread until you return to the ground, for from it you were taken, from dust you come, and to dust you will return.” So, prior to this point in Genesis, we have the creation accounts, we have, you know, that God has created the garden, placed humanity in the garden to tend to this creation, to care for it. And they are intended to, you know, they are nourished by the fruits of these trees, they delight in God by delighting in God's creation. And God gave them just one restriction, which was a restriction on what they could eat. And so, in Genesis 3:19, we know that they have failed to honor this restriction that God has given them. And we are now learning the ramifications of that fall. And one of those ramifications is that the soil is going to sprout forth thistles and thorns. That we will no longer just be nourished by the fruits of the trees, but that we will have to labor in this soil. We will have to labor against a creation that works against us in order to have our nutritional needs met. But at the same time, God offers us this gift, that it's by the sweat of your brow, you will eat your bread. Our bread, you know, doesn't just grow from a tree. The humanity was probably not eating bread in the garden. But in this offering of bread, that it's by the sweat of your brow, you will eat your bread. Humans are being told, yes, we will have to labor in the soil in order to nourish ourselves. But also, we are being invited to participate with God in the transformation of creation into something really delicious as well. So, bread is, at the same time, both this picture of the brokenness of creation and yet also the goodness of God. This blessing, this gift from God in the midst of a broken creation. The production of bread, historically, has required a lot of work. It requires months and months of laboring in the soil to grow wheat, harvest wheat, thresh it, and then grind it into flour. Turn that flour into dough, gather firewood to heat up an oven, and then turn that dough into bread before finally being able to eat it. So, humanity has long known that it is, you know, there is this deep, this incredible amount of labor required to make bread. And yet also, bread contains almost all of the nutrients that humans need in order to survive. We can live off of just bread and water alone for a very, very, very long time. And in fact, many humans throughout most of human history have lived off of just bread and water for a very, very, very long time. So then when we see bread show up in other places in scripture, we see it show up as this picture of God's miraculous provision for God's people. We see it show up as a sign of God's presence with God's people. And we see it as a sign of God's promises to God's people that God will continue this work of restoration until we have this imagery of this renewed creation in the book of Revelation. So, one picture of that is in this provision of manna for the Israelites in the desert. You know, I think oftentimes for us, we read this story and we think the miracle is like, well, I don't know about you, but I've never opened my front door and had bread strewn across my lawn that I could just go out and gather. But we can still picture just walking into a grocery store and having a whole aisle of bread to choose from, right? For us, the miracle seems like it just appears out of nowhere, but it doesn't seem all that crazy to just have a bunch of ready-made bread available to you. But for the Israelites, the work of making bread would have been nine months or more of labor between growing wheat, harvesting it, turning that wheat into flour, flour into dough, dough into bread. That's work that was not possible while they were wandering in the desert. And so, when God is providing this miracle of manna, all they have to do is go out every single morning and gather, and they have to trust day after day after day that God is going to continue to provide. So, then we see a mirror of this in the story of the feeding of the 5,000. Once again, I think the miracle to us oftentimes feels like, you know, well, I've never seen five loaves capable of feeding 5,000 plus people. But still, we can picture a Costco aisle of bread that probably has enough bread to feed 5,000 people. Just the presence of bread enough for that size crowd doesn't seem all that miraculous. But for the crowd who was gathered on the hillside with Jesus, they would have had a much closer awareness of just how much work was required to grow enough, in this case, barley. One of the accounts says that it was barley bread. So, to grow enough barley to make enough bread to feed this crowd. And at the very least, in Mark's account of the gospel, we see a very direct link to work and how much work would be required to feed this crowd. Because in the gospel of Mark, it says that it would take more than half a year's wages to buy enough bread to feed this crowd. So, this distinct connection between labor and hard work in order to feed, to provide the bread for these people. But Jesus circumvents that labor required to either make the bread or buy the bread and just miraculously provides these five loaves to feed 5,000 plus people. So then on the night before his death, Jesus takes, I think, this imagery one step further. It is not just the labor of making bread that Jesus circumvents in his provision of bread for his disciples. He offers bread to his disciples and says, “This is my body that is broken for you.” Jesus is circumventing the very work of defeating the curse of sin and death. He has taken the labor of defeating sin and death onto his own body. And he's offering that body back to his disciples and onto anyone who remembers Him in this meal of bread and the cup. But he's offering to us His body as in the form of bread, as this picture of the labor that Jesus has taken on, the curse that Jesus has taken on so that we can then live in freedom. And so, we're still currently living in this sort of in-between time where we know that Jesus, that Christ has died, that Christ is risen, and we are still awaiting the day when Christ will come again. We're still awaiting this imagery in the book of Revelation where creation is restored. And I believe our relationship to bread will purely be one of delight and joy and freedom. But right now, we do still experience that brokenness of creation in relationship to bread. But also, bread is still a way in which we can know God, in which we can trust God's promises to us in this very tangible form in which we can believe that God is with us, even when we don't feel it.

In line with your brand of edible theology, I'd love to go further into the scripture. That was so fascinating. I feel like you're so succinct in the way that you put that all together. So, I kind of want to do a deeper dive into a couple of the key ingredients of bread and then have you share their significance both in contributing to food, but also their significance for our own lives. Absolutely. Let's just begin with salt. Will you share the scripture and insight into salt? Kendall Vanderslice: (22:18 - 23:20) Yeah. One of the things that I love about salt, I think oftentimes, especially here in America, we have a sort of distorted understanding of the role that salt plays in our food. Oftentimes, we treat table salt. We usually have table salt that you just add onto your food after cooking it. Maybe you add a little bit of salt while cooking, but for the most part, you just sprinkle on table salt after. And it almost is treated as this kind of added flavor. But salt actually should not be this added flavor at the end. Salt should be incorporated into the cooking process because salt opens up our taste receptors on our tongues, and it opens up the flavors in the dish. So, salt actually should not be the predominant flavor that we taste. Salt should be the thing that allows us to taste everything else. And I think when we understand salt in that form, it should reframe our understanding of what it means to be the salt of the earth or to be salt and light in the world. What does it mean that salt is not the thing that itself gets tasted, but salt is the thing that opens up the flavors of everything else around us? Laura Dugger: (23:20 - 23:30) Kendall, can you take that even a step further? What does that practically look like for believers really living as salt of the earth? Kendall Vanderslice: (23:34 - 24:26) I think one of the great joys of the ways that these metaphors at work in Scripture is that we get to continually explore and see what that means for us and where God might be calling us. But I do think that being aware that to be the salt of the earth is to help pull out the best in the communities around us, to pull out the best in the people around us, is just this really beautiful picture of how I think God asks us to work in community. But our job is not necessarily to be the strong presence. Our job is not necessarily to make sure everyone knows that we are present, but instead our job is to identify and build up and pull out the best parts of the people around us in the communities that we are in. Laura Dugger: (24:27 - 24:56) That's so good. I love how you shared that because for me, as you were unpacking it, I was just thinking that we as the salt, when you taste it, you don't want to think, oh, that's salt. You want, like you said, to open it up to others. And so that's our purpose is to reflect and glorify Jesus and to point to him. So, I'm sure there's countless meanings. Will you also do the same thing and share the significance of yeast? Kendall Vanderslice: (24:57 - 29:44) Yeah, sure. So, yeast is, you know, also a fascinating, fascinating thing. And we are only really just beginning to understand sort of the microbial world and the role that it plays in our lives, in our bodies, in our world. And so, it's opening up entirely new understandings of how yeast is at work in scripture. One thing that we have to bear in mind is that the writers of scripture did not actually know what yeast was. We were only able to identify the microbes that are yeast and bacteria in the last 150 years. And so, prior to Louis Pasteur, humans didn't know what yeast was. They only knew the reactions of yeast. You know, you saw if I mix together, you know, this, if I let this flour and water sit, it comes back to life and I can mix that into more flour and water and it can become bread. You know, I can mix it in with a lot of water and a little bit of yeast and some hops and it becomes beer. I can mix it in with grapes and it becomes wine. So, we see the reactions, but don't necessarily know what it is that is responsible for those reactions. So, it is fairly new that we have this, you know, in the scope of human history, it's fairly new that we have this understanding of what are the actual kind of little critters that are involved in this process. And so, I have a really dear friend who she studies theology of the microbiome. So, a lot of her research is all based around, you know, how does this emerging research on yeast and bacteria shape our understanding of what it means to be human? And so then how does that shape the ways we read in scripture, both passages about yeast and also about what it means to be human? And so it is, I think there's just, it's a field that is ripe for exploration and we are only beginning to scratch the surface of all the beautiful imagery that's at play here. But one of the things that I find most fascinating is that leaven or yeast, it is used as a metaphor for two different things in scripture. In one passage, it is used as a metaphor for the kingdom of heaven, the parable of leaven, the kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman mixed into three measures of flour until it leavened the whole batch. But apart from that, yeast is always used as an image of sin, the ways that sin works through community. We have the passage about the leaven of the Pharisees. I believe there are a few others as well. So oftentimes leaven is used as this picture of sin and the ways that sin sort of multiplies and works through communities. But at the same time, it's this picture of the kingdom of God, that it's this little bit of yeast that slowly multiplies and through its multiplication, it transforms the entire community. It seems like a strange sort of tension that why would we use the same thing as a picture of both the kingdom of heaven and a picture of sin? And I think it makes more sense when we understand a sourdough culture. So, a sourdough culture is a culture of bacteria and yeast that is used to leaven bread, to raise bread. So, we all have wild yeast and bacteria living in the air, on the surface of our skin, on the surface of everything around us. This wild yeast and bacteria is what makes the world go round. It's what makes our brains function. It's what allows our bellies to digest food. It is what sort of makes everything work. And there is always this presence of both pathogenic bacteria and also beneficial bacteria. That is true within our bodies. That's true sort of all around us. It's true in the sourdough culture that there is always the presence of pathogenic bacteria, but there is also the beneficial bacteria. And so, to maintain a healthy sourdough starter, you have to feed it regularly. And as long as you feed it regularly and maintain its health, that good bacteria is going to keep the pathogenic bacteria in check. It's when you start to starve that starter that the pathogenic bacteria gets stronger and it overtakes the good bacteria and your sourdough starter goes bad. And so, I think that's a really beautiful way to think about both how the kingdom of God works and also how sin works in our communities. We live in a broken creation. Sin will always be present. But when we are digging ourselves, like when we are staying grounded and rooted in scripture, when we're staying grounded and rooted in church community and worship and prayer, when we are maintaining these healthy communities that are rooted to God, then we're able to help keep that pathogenic bacteria, that sin in check. But it's when we do not that it can start to take over and it can spread through a community just as quickly and easily as the kingdom of God can also spread through a community. Laura Dugger: (29:45 - 29:58) You just have brilliant answers. Is there any other science in the bread baking that is also fascinating to you because it has a richer, deeper spiritual meaning? Kendall Vanderslice: (29:58 - 32:22) One of the things that I love, I oftentimes lead these bread baking workshops for groups of leaders, especially church leaders or faith leaders who are oftentimes having to manage just large groups of people where they're constantly facing internal conflict. I don't think anyone who leads a group of people has managed to bring together the people that never have any kind of disagreement. One of the things that I love about bread is that inherent to the structure of bread is tension. The backbone of bread is this protein called gluten that is made up of two different proteins called gluten and gliadin. Gluten and gliadin have two opposing qualities to them. One likes to stretch and stretch and stretch. It's what's called the elastic quality. One likes to hold its shape, what's called the plastic quality. When these protein strands unravel, they begin to form bonds with one another and they create this network, this protein network. That protein network is what captures the carbon dioxide that the yeast releases and that allows the dough to both grow while also holding its shape. The strength and the structure of our bread is fully reliant on tension between these two opposing qualities, these two opposing needs. In order to build that tension in a way that brings strength to the bread, it has to be constantly balanced with rest. The gluten will let you know when it's starting to get tired. If you don't give it time to rest, then it will just fall apart. It will start to break down on you. This is something that I think so many of our communities really can learn from right now. That tension is good, that our differences, that diversity in our communities is our source of strength. When these differences rub up against one another and they help expand our understanding of the people around us, our differing needs, our differing convictions, our differing desires, our differing hopes, that can be a source of strength in our communities. Also, we need to understand when it's time to step away and take time to rest before leaning into those differences even further. I love that bread then is itself this element that Jesus gives us as the sign of our unity in Christ, because it is this picture of our differences coming together and making us one even in our difference. Laura Dugger: (32:23 - 32:39) All of this from bread, it's just incredible. Then I even think you write about temperature and scoring the bread. Is there anything else? We won't get to cover all of it, but any other scientific findings that have been really exciting? Kendall Vanderslice: (32:40 - 33:33) I think there is so much in bread. I like to say that bread is incredibly simple and infinitely complex. It's made of four basic ingredients, but it can be mixed together in myriad ways. A baker can commit their entire lives to learning about bread, and they will still have more to learn. We'll never be able to cover it all. I think there's room for endless exploration as far as digging into all that bread has to teach us. My hope is that this book, Bake and Pray, helps to start to illuminate some of the ways that we see God teaching us through the many different steps in the bread-baking process. I also hope that others will start to get into this practice of baking, and through the practice of baking, they themselves will be able to start to see some of the beauty that God reveals through bread.

Thanks for your support. Well, and Kendall, you also have a unique take. You spent years as a ballet dancer, and even with your books, you're just writing about the connection beyond, like you said, just our intellect and our minds to the Lord, but using our whole bodies to glorify God. Can you share some more ways that we can use our bodies to bake and pray and glorify God? Kendall Vanderslice: (34:38 - 39:09) Yeah, so one of the things that I love when I'm first teaching people about this idea of praying with your body, it is ironic. The whole concept of praying with your body is to try and get us out of our minds and into our bodies. But the idea of praying with our body can feel like a very sort of cerebral or like, you know, the sort of thing that doesn't quite make sense. And so, the way that I like to help people first get started is through the practice of a breath prayer. So, a breath prayer is a practice of repeating a line of scripture or poetry with every inhale and every exhale. And so, one of the ones that I love to start with is my soul finds rest in God alone, drawn from the Psalms. And so, as you inhale, you repeat my soul finds rest. And as you exhale in God alone. And so, when I'm guiding others through this bake and pray practice, I have a start by just closing our eyes and I will lead us in this rhythm of breathing and of repeating this line again and again and again. And then from there, I encourage the group to start to mix up their dough while repeating this line with every inhale and exhale. And I think it helps us to see how our breath, our breath itself becomes, you know, these words of scripture so ingrain themselves in our breathing that we then understand our breathing itself as an offering of prayer to God. And then the movements of our bodies through this rhythm of breathing becomes an offering of prayer to God. And then we realize that the words themselves are not even necessary, that we can offer, you know, the movements of mixing bread dough, but also of gardening, of knitting, of cooking, of playing with our children, of raking leaves, that all of these things can be ways to offer our movements to God as prayer and to invite God into this practice with us and to pay attention to how God is present in these practices. So, I do hope that, you know, people will take bake and pray and actually bake with it and learn to bake as a form of prayer. But I also love when I hear from potters or I hear from gardeners or I hear from other people that work with their hands regularly who tell me, I read this and I don't think I'm going to start baking, but it has reshaped my understanding of my own, you know, craft and my own vocation. So, I am excited to hear from others who maybe will take this and say, like, this is how I see this work being a form of prayer. But I first started learning about embodied prayer and practicing it when I got to college. I was in a dance team at my college. I had grown up as a ballerina. I left the ballet world in high school, and it was a really, really hard. My experience was really wonderful in many ways and really hard in many ways. I was in the pre-professional ballet world, which is, you know, very, very rigorous, very mentally draining, very physically demanding. And when I realized that I wasn't going to be able to make it professionally, it was just absolutely devastating. It was like my whole world was wrapped around this. And so, then when I got to college, I was invited to be a part of this dance company. But the dance company was for women who had experienced sort of the ballet world in the way that I had, and who were looking for healing and to understand that our dance could be a form of worship and a form of prayer. And when I first started, I thought that the whole concept was really strange. You know, I was I did not understand. I was so grateful to have this very just affirming community that I was dancing with. It was really it was the first time that I had been, you know, affirmed in my body and affirmed as a dancer and not just, you know, told all the things that were wrong with me. But still, I was like, this is a really strange concept that as we're dancing, we're somehow praying. And it really was something that I had to practice again and again and again to understand and to really feel. And so, if someone is listening to this and thinking like this sounds like a really strange concept, I encourage you to just try it. And it might take a few tries. Maybe try using the liturgies that are in the book to help get you into that practice. And then I hope that as you practice, either praying through baking or through gardening or what have you, that you will just get to experience the ways that God's present with you. And then that will transform your understanding of your craft. Laura Dugger: (39:09 - 39:20) Thanks for sharing that. It's important for us to understand that we are embodied beings. And that points to that awesome truth that God with us, that Jesus was embodied. Kendall Vanderslice: (39:21 - 39:22) Absolutely. Laura Dugger: (39:22 - 39:31) But then, OK, so in your most recent book, Bake and Pray, what's one recipe that you're especially excited about? Kendall Vanderslice: (39:31 - 41:04) You know, we are just emerging from the season of Advent and Christmas, and those are some of my favorite recipes in the book. One that is so delicious, that is it is a Christmas recipe. It is the Moravian sugar cake, but Moravians do eat the sugar cake all year round. So, it is kind of a classical Christmas recipe. But here at the Moravian bakeries here in North Carolina, you can get them all year round. So Moravian baked goods are an early Protestant tradition. They actually were Protestants before the Protestant Reformation, they like to say. And they're a pretty small denomination here in the United States. But they're largely focused in here in North Carolina, where I am, and then a little bit in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. But the Moravian baked goods are known for all of their breads have potato in them. And so, some people, you know, there are other recipes that have like a potato, a potato bread or potato rolls. When you add mashed potato into baked goods, it makes it really, really moist and tender. It holds on to moisture in the baked good much longer than just flour alone. So, the Moravian baked goods all have mashed potato in them. But the Moravian sugar cake is one where it's this very rich potato bread. And then you put it into a pan, and you poke holes in it, sort of like if you were dimpling focaccia. And then you pour butter and cinnamon sugar on top and bake it. And it is like it is a mix between sort of coffee cake and bread. And it is so, so, so delicious. I love it. Laura Dugger: (41:04 - 41:09) And there is also just a cute little story in there with the history. Kendall Vanderslice: (41:09 - 41:28) Oh, yes, absolutely. It is, you know, there's this lore that apparently when men were looking for wives, they would look for women that had thick fingers. Because if they had thick fingers, it meant that they would have bigger dimples in their Moravian sugar cake that would hold bigger pockets of cinnamon and sugar. Laura Dugger: (41:28 - 41:42) I love that. I thought that was so funny. Well, Kendall, what are some of the most creative ways that you've been able to pair bread and generosity together to minister to others? Kendall Vanderslice: (41:43 - 43:24) Yeah, one of the things that I am doing right now is, you know, I'm on the road several weeks of the year leading bread baking workshops in churches all over the country. And I love, love, love that part of my work. But in the last year, I started to really crave a closer connection with my community here in Durham, North Carolina. But I am traveling the country and telling other people about how to connect to home and how to connect to their communities. And that work keeps me from being able to connect to my own home and community. And so, I decided that when I am home, I want to have a more intentional way of feeding the people immediately around me. And so, I have this practice on Fridays of bread for friends and neighbors. And so, I'll tell, I'll send out an email to friends and neighbors on Monday and tell them, you know, here's what I'm baking this week if I'm in town. And then they let me know what they want. And on Fridays, I have this shed in my driveway that I open up and it's got this whole like really fun armoire and that I that I've sort of decorated to be a bread pickup area. And so, on Fridays, my neighbors and my friends all walk over, and they come pick up their bread. And it's just been such a gift to be able to feed my immediate community through bread. But then also to see and hear them sort of connecting in the driveway as they all come pick up their bread at the same time. And folks who either didn't know one another are starting to connect and find and meet one another. But then also neighbors to realize like, oh, you can get kindle bread, I get kindle bread. And, you know, it's just so fun to have that very simple point of connection, because it can be feel very easy to feel disconnected from the neighbors that you maybe see all over the place. But just that that time of connection and picking up bread, I think, goes a long way beyond just that particular moment. Laura Dugger: (43:26 - 43:36) Generosity is always inspiring. And where can we all go to learn more about edible theology online or all of the other things that you have to offer? Kendall Vanderslice: (43:37 - 44:05) You can learn more at my website, kendallvanderslice.com. The website is currently sort of under construction. So, I've got a makeshift website up right now where you can find everything. And eventually I will have more links to all of the edible theology resources. But you can find everything you need at kendallvanderslice.com. You can learn about my workshops. You can learn about my books. You can learn about curriculum, about retreats that I lead. All of it is right there. Laura Dugger: (44:06 - 44:24) Wonderful. We will certainly add links in today's show notes so that it's easy to find. And Kendall, you may be familiar that we're called The Savvy Sauce because savvy is synonymous with practical knowledge. And so is my final question for you today. What is your savvy sauce? Kendall Vanderslice: (44:25 - 45:13) Well, I think for me it is allowing myself to use even the simplest moments in the kitchen as a time for prayer rather than trying to rush through the practice of just seeing food as something I have to eat three times a day and something I have to make for myself. To realize that even something as simple as heating up a pot of soup or slicing some bread and smearing it with butter is still an invitation to thank God for this gift of food and the ability to prepare it. And so, I think that small practice alone can transform the way we relate to food and our bodies, but also to try and slow down and have a moment in our day where we avoid just rushing through and take a little bit more intentionality to appreciate the gifts that God has given us. Laura Dugger: (45:14 - 45:31) Well, Kendall, I was so intrigued from the first time that I heard about edible theology. And I really appreciate how you shed light on God's profound spiritual truths that are around us and that we can interact with in everyday life. But you also have such a charming personality. Kendall Vanderslice: (45:32 - 45:38) So, thank you for being my guest. Thank you so much for having me. It's been such a delight to be here. Laura Dugger: (45:39 – 49:21) One more thing before you go. Have you heard the term gospel before? It simply means good news. And I want to share the best news with you. But it starts with the bad news. Every single one of us were born sinners, but Christ desires to rescue us from our sin, which is something we cannot do for ourselves. This means there is absolutely no chance we can make it to heaven on our own. So, for you and for me, it means we deserve death, and we can never pay back the sacrifice we owe to be saved. We need a savior. But God loved us so much, he made a way for his only son to willingly die in our place as the perfect substitute. This gives us hope of life forever in right relationship with him. That is good news. Jesus lived the perfect life we could never live and died in our place for our sin. This was God's plan to make a way to reconcile with us so that God can look at us and see Jesus. We can be covered and justified through the work Jesus finished if we choose to receive what He has done for us. Romans 10:9 says, “That if you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” So, would you pray with me now? Heavenly Father, thank you for sending Jesus to take our place. I pray someone today right now is touched and chooses to turn their life over to you. Will you clearly guide them and help them take their next step in faith to declare you as Lord of their life? We trust you to work and change lives now for eternity. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. If you prayed that prayer, you are declaring him for me, so me for him. You get the opportunity to live your life for him. And at this podcast, we're called The Savvy Sauce for a reason. We want to give you practical tools to implement the knowledge you have learned. So, you ready to get started? First, tell someone. Say it out loud. Get a Bible. The first day I made this decision, my parents took me to Barnes & Noble and let me choose my own Bible. I selected the Quest NIV Bible, and I love it. You can start by reading the book of John. Also, get connected locally, which just means tell someone who's a part of a church in your community that you made a decision to follow Christ. I'm assuming they will be thrilled to talk with you about further steps, such as going to church and getting connected to other believers to encourage you. We want to celebrate with you too, so feel free to leave a comment for us here if you did make a decision to follow Christ. We also have show notes included where you can read scripture that describes this process. And finally, be encouraged. Luke 15:10 says, “In the same way I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” The heavens are praising with you for your decision today. And if you've already received this good news, I pray you have someone to share it with. You are loved and I look forward to meeting you here next time.

How does language about wine impact the way we experience and enjoy wine? How does reporting on alcohol science compare to other scientific topics? Why can yeast be described as a nano-technological machine? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Adam Rogers, author of the New York Times bestseller Proof: The Science of Booze. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks Giveaway One of you is going to win a copy of his terrific new book, Full Spectrum: How the Science of Color Made Us Modern. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose one person randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! Highlights What was Adam's experience at a fancy restaurant in Chicago where food critic Jeffrey Steingarten was a fellow patron? How did a New York restaurant experience expose Adam to the wild science of winemaking? Why did Adam nearly have an existential moment while writing about the science of grapes? How does reporting on alcohol science compare to other scientific topics? Which moments did Adam want to capture in the book? What were the most surprising insights Adam uncovered while writing Proof and what was the most difficult part of writing it? Why does Adam describe yeast as a nano-technological machine? Which facts about yeast did Adam find fascinating? What have archaeologists discovered about the role of alcohol in early human civilization? Which cultural approach to alcohol consumption did Adam find most interesting? How do modern brewers and distillers safeguard their yeast? Key Takeaways Adam recounts the story of the couple sitting next to him ordering a dessert wine. The diner asked, “Is that a Vin du Glacier or a noble rot?” The two different ways to make a sweet wine. Just the fact that the diner was informed enough to know that there were these two methods would have a bearing on what he would be tasting. Here was this person operationalizing that interest to make his meal better. He wanted to have more fun. If you're reporting on science, you have the scientists trying to understand something new or reinterpret understanding and then there are people who that's going to affect. With winemaking, you have practitioners who are often not themselves, scientists. So they are craftspeople in a stakeholder role too. Louis Pasteur said I think there is an impossibly small, invisible, living creature that eats sugar and poops alcohol, and so the best chemists in the world at that time looked at that as a hypothesis and said, You're nuts. Nobody knew how inert chemicals could be alive. Nobody knew what the connection was. Those things are enzymes and understanding what enzymes do in a living body, that's what gave rise to biochemistry, and ultimately gave rise to biotechnology. That one insight. About Adam Rogers Adam Rogers is a senior correspondent at Business Insider, where he writes about technology, culture, and the ways they overlap. Prior to joining BI, Adam was a longtime editor and writer at WIRED, where his article “The Science of Why No One Agrees on the Color of This Dress” was the second-most-read thing on the entire internet in 2015. Adam's WIRED feature story on a mysterious fungus that grows on whisky warehouses won a AAAS/Kavli science journalism award — and led to his 2014 New York Times bestseller Proof: The Science of Booze. Adam is also the author of the 2021 book Full Spectrum: How the Science of Color Made Us Modern. He has also written for Alta, the Atlantic, National Geographic, the New York Times, Slate, and Smithsonian, and may be the only journalist to attend both San Diego Comic-Con and the White House Correspondents Dinner.

Take a breath. Just breathe. And then reserve your ticket for a special online-only talk with New York Times columnist Carl Zimmer, who will tell you all about what just went into your lungs. Zimmer will share the ideas that are in his new book Air-Borne, giving a fascinating, previously untold story of the air we breathe, the hidden life it contains, and invisible dangers that can turn the world upside down Every day we draw in two thousand gallons of air—and thousands of living things. From the ground to the stratosphere, the air teems with invisible life. This last great biological frontier remains so mysterious that it took more than two years for scientists to finally agree that the Covid pandemic was caused by an airborne virus. Zimmer will lead us on an odyssey through the living atmosphere and through the history of its discovery. From the tops of mountain glaciers, where Louis Pasteur caught germs from the air, to Amelia Earhart and Charles Lindbergh above the clouds, where they conducted groundbreaking experiments.
