TEATIME WITH MISS LIZ SERVES: Haley StrawTitleAmish Stories & Hidden Journeys: Finding Courage on the Backroads of Life TaglineSometimes the roads we never planned to travel become the ones that transform us most. DescriptionOn June 9th at 3 PM EST, Teatime with Miss Liz welcomes Haley Straw — author, homeschooling mother of six, and former Amish taxi driver whose unexpected journey opened the door to a world few people ever truly see. What began as a fearful decision to drive Amish families to weddings, funerals, hospitals, and emergencies became a life-changing experience rooted in faith, resilience, simplicity, and human connection. Through years spent travelling, laughter, courage, and the beauty found in ordinary moments. Her storytelling reflects the deeper truths that emerge when life pushes us beyond our comfort zones and into unexpected growth. This Teatime explores transformation, authenticity, faith, courage, community, and the unseen ways life reshapes us through everyday experiences. Opening:Welcome, remind us how deeply connected humanity truly is. Today's guest brings us into a world many people are curious about, but few truly experience firsthand. Haley Straw's journey began with uncertainty and fear, but one unexpected opportunity completely changed the direction of her life. Driving Amish families through moments of celebration, hardship, loss, and everyday life became more than a job — it became a journey of understanding, growth, and discovery of the beauty hidden in ordinary moments. Her story reminds us that courage is not always loud. Sometimes courage quietly shows up on one road, one conversation, and one choice at a time. Haley, welcome to Teatime with Miss Liz. Closing: Tonight's conversation reminds us that transformation often happens slowly and quietly. Haley Straw's journey through Amish country shows us the beauty of simplicity, the power of human connection, and the courage it takes to cross unseen boundaries in life. Sometimes we believe growth comes through grand moments, but often it's found on ordinary roads, in unexpected conversations, and in the willingness to keep moving forward even when we are afraid. As we leave today's Teatime, may we all reflect on this: What unseen journey in your own life may actually be shaping you into who you are meant to become? Haley Straw is an author, former Amish taxi driver, and homeschooling mother of six whose life was transformed through years spent driving Amish families throughout rural Missouri. Through storytelling rooted in faith, resilience, and authenticity, she shares powerful reflections on courage, community, simplicity, and the quiet transformation found in everyday life.

Mulch is one of the highest-return investments you can make in your vegetable garden and yet most gardeners are using whatever happens to be available rather than whatever would actually work best for their situation. In this episode, we dig into the full lineup of organic mulches—straw, shredded leaves, wood chips, pine needles, grass clippings, and compost—as well as a shorter look at inorganic options like landscape fabric and black plastic. For each type, you'll learn how well it suppresses annual, perennial, and invasive weeds, how it handles moisture retention and heavy rainfall, how to apply it correctly, and what drawbacks to watch for in terms of pests, availability, and cost. The bottom line: any mulch is better than bare soil. But the right mulch for your garden depends on your weed pressure, your climate, your crops, and your situation—and by the end of this episode, you'll know exactly how to make that call. Let's dig in! Mulch Quick Reference Best for annual weed suppression: Straw, wood chips, black plastic Best for moisture retention: Wood chips, straw, compost Best for slopes and heavy rain areas: Pine needles, wood chips Best for soil building: Compost, shredded leaves Best free options: Shredded leaves, grass clippings (herbicide-free), arborist chips Best for soil warming: Black plastic Avoid in vegetable gardens long-term: Landscape fabric References: Warnall School of Forestry and Natural Resources - Black Walnut Allelopathy: Tree Chemical Warfare: openscholar.uga.edu/record/22964/files/Walnut Allelopathy 11-10.pdf Horticultural Sciences Department, University of Florida, Gainesville - Evaluation of Allelopathic Potential of Wood Chips for Weed Suppression in Horticultural Production Systems: ashs.org/hort/hort/published/rest/pdf-watermark/v1/journals/hortsci/40/3/article-p711.pdf/watermark-pdf/ University of Minnesota Extension — Mulching in the Home Garden: extension.umn.edu Penn State Extension — Mulches for the Home Landscape: extension.psu.edu NC State Extension Gardener Handbook — Mulching chapter: content.ces.ncsu.edu University of Illinois Extension — Wood Chip Mulch: Landscape Boon or Bane: extension.illinois.edu Cornell Cooperative Extension — Grass Clippings as Mulch: gardening.cornell.edu University of Tennessee Extension — Using Leaves as Mulch and Compost: extension.tennessee.edu Iowa State University Extension — Plastic Mulch in the Vegetable Garden: yardandgarden.extension.iastate.edu Michigan State University Extension — Landscape Fabric: Is It Really Worth It: canr.msu.edu ChipDrop (free arborist chips): getchipdrop.com Resources: Just Grow Something: https://justgrowsomething.com Gardening Courses: https://justgrowsomething.com/courses Just Grow Something Merch and Downloads: https://justgrowsomething.com/shop Just Grow Something Gardening Friends Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18YgHveF5P/ Check out how you can become a patron on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/JustGrowSomething Feed my coffee habit: https://buymeacoffee.com/justgrowsomething Amazon storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/justgrowsomething Get 10% off and FREE shipping on my favorite raised planters at Planter Box Direct using code JUSTGROW10: https://planterboxdirect.com/?ref=593 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On this Sunday, Dr. Jay Dudley taught from 1 Peter 2:24 and showing that an intended result of Christ bearing our sin is that we die to it and live to righteousness. The word translated "die" here is a euphemism meaning "absent" or "missing." This suggests that we can increasingly die to sin-- by thinking and acting absent, missing, not available to it. The sermon explores this and three other biblically grounded pictures of spiritual practices that strengthen resolve and resistance to temptation and sin.
Amy Phillips and Emily Dorezas react strongly to the escalating Rhode Island chaos, calling out how brazen it feels for married couples to air cheating allegations on camera, especially with photos of Rulla's husband Brian and a “white paper mistress” posted online. They feel Brian comes off as a smug drink-stirrer who deflects blame while Rulla seems determined to accept any explanation to avoid another divorce. They're fascinated and confused by Liz and Gerry's seemingly permissive setup with Dino, the seawall outing, and Liz's threat to Kelsey (“you've got more to hide than I do”), speculating about tangled past hookups. They praise Kelsey for owning her unconventional lifestyle, question Alicia's fiancé and prenup situation, and enjoy the show's grounded, “real job” stakes like HR involvement, plus relatable family/housework moments.BLISSY Wake up with clearer skin, smoother hair, and cooler sleep.

Matt Risinger sits down with Jacob Racusin of New Frameworks to unpack how straw-based construction fits into modern high-performance building. Racusin reframes “straw bale” as a panelized wall system using straw and wood fiber as insulation within airtight assemblies, emphasizing durability, moisture management, and prefabrication. The conversation moves from the history of straw construction to its evolution into factory-built panels that meet passive house–level performance. They discuss cost, scalability, and shifting from custom design-build to standardized housing solutions, positioning bio-based materials as part of a broader strategy for energy efficiency, resilience, and streamlined construction.

When Eddie Ndopu was two years old, his mother was told he wouldn't likely live past five. Now in his early thirties, Eddie is an internationally-known and Oxford-educated advocate for the rights of the disabled. In this interview, he shares how his optimistic single mother instilled in Eddie a love of learning and encouraged him to pursue a "life of the mind." Today, Eddie is world-renowned and was hand-selected by the UN Secretary General to be one of 17 people selected as an SDG Advocate. Reflecting on his new memoir, Eddie describes how he wrote his book, typing with his "one good finger on an iPhone," and why he hopes this book will inspire others to be more understanding and supportive of people living with disabilities. Chapters: 00:00 Introducing Eddie Ndopu This chapter introduces Eddie Ndopu, author of 'Sipping Dom Perignon Through a Straw.' Diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy at two, doctors predicted he wouldn't live past five, yet he's become an internationally acclaimed humanitarian and UN advocate, defying all odds. 03:29 Aspiration Beyond Accessibility Eddie explains his book's provocative title, 'Sipping Dom Perignon Through a Straw,' as a metaphor for aspirations often denied to people with disabilities. He shares his incredible journey of surpassing a five-year life expectancy and attributes his resilience to his mother's unwavering support and the gift of education, which opened countless opportunities. 07:49 His Mother's Unyielding Dream Eddie reflects on his mother's resilience and optimism, particularly during an emotional encounter with President Obama. He recounts her profound understanding that systemic injustice, like apartheid, robs people of their ability to dream, a lesson that fueled her determination for Eddie to have a life of limitless possibility. 13:12 Advocacy for Inclusive Education Eddie discusses the shocking statistic that 90% of children with disabilities never see the inside of a classroom. 17:38 The African Leadership Academy Eddie recounts a pivotal moment when he learned about the African Leadership Academy, seeing it as a crucial opportunity despite initial rejection. His defiance and a persuasive letter ultimately secured his admission, highlighting his remarkable drive even at 16. 22:24 The Embodied Oxford Experience Eddie delves into the challenging and deeply personal experience of writing his memoir with one finger, detailing the physical and emotional toll of navigating Oxford as a profoundly disabled student. 29:50 Defying the Post-Fairytale Challenges Eddie describes Oxford as 'the day after the fairytale,' a period of relentless challenges despite achieving a dream. He explains that his memoir is an 'anti-grit' narrative, highlighting the exhaustion of constant struggle and the unfairness of society expecting individuals to always be strong, rather than institutions meeting them halfway. 35:09 Global Humanitarian Work and Future Eddie details his post-Oxford career, serving as the youngest board member of the UN Foundation and an SDG advocate for the UN Secretary-General. He describes his work as pushing the boundaries of representation and using storytelling to envision a world where every person lives with dignity, with aspirations to pivot into film and television to further this mission. 40:20 Disability as an Offering to Humanity Eddie shares his extraordinary goal of becoming the first wheelchair-bound person in outer space, symbolizing possibility for all humanity. He reflects on his quote, 'imperfection is more intrinsic to us all than perfection is,' viewing disability as an offering that teaches new ways of being and ultimately leads to a profound sense of liberation and freedom when embraced.

We explore the unsettling but ultimately freeing image of the "straw dog"—a ritual object that is revered when needed and released when its purpose is served.If you've ever felt exhausted by the project of trying to "earn" the universe's favor, or if you've felt trapped by a love that comes with too many conditions, this verse offers a different way forward.The Ritual of the Straw Dog: Why an impartial universe is actually a gift.Love Without a Cage: How the Master's impartiality is the fullest expression of love.The Bellows: Learning to breathe out so that you can receive again.The Danger of Talking: Why the conversation is never the silence on the other side of it.Holding the Center: Finding the stillness inside the turning wheel."The space between heaven and earth is like a bellows. It is empty and yet infinitely capable. The more you use it, the more it produces; the more you talk of it, the less you understand. Hold on to the center."
In this episode, Gari and Ally explore the “Seasons of Straw” we see in Exodus 5 - those confusing moments when life gets harder right after we believe God has promised breakthrough. Through the story of Moses and the Israelites, they unpack how increased pressure, discouragement, and spiritual opposition can often be signs that God is preparing the way for a deeper freedom.SUBSCRIBE, RATE, & REVIEW the podcast to stay up to date with the latest episodes.

From the Middle East to global energy markets, Tara breaks down the strategic moves reshaping the world. Learn how Israel and the U.S. are countering Iran, the risks for Marines on the ground, the geopolitical ripple effects on Russia, China, and Venezuela, and why Democrats are panicking over Trump's energy moves. Plus, get insights on flu and COVID vaccines and what the CDC isn't emphasizing. SUMMARY In this episode, Tara dives deep into international conflict, energy policy, and public health: Middle East & Iran War: The new Iranian leadership has not been publicly seen—proof of life remains unverified. Israel plays a pivotal role in countering Iran and Hezbollah, carrying out strikes, intelligence operations, and targeted removals of Iranian nuclear scientists. Limited U.S. ground operations may be deployed in key strategic areas like the Strait of Hormuz, aiming to cripple Iran's oil economy. The broader regional impact spans 12 countries, influencing alliances with Arab nations, Russia, India, China, and NATO dynamics. Energy & Oil Policy: Trump's moves to lift certain Russian oil sanctions are set to drop global oil prices, reversing Democrat-inflated energy costs caused by prior sanctions. These shifts have major implications for U.S. households, global oil markets, and geopolitical power, including China's economic positioning and Russia's oil influence. Public Health Spotlight: Flu vaccines: 200–250 reported deaths annually, possibly up to 1,000 due to underreporting; CDC reports vaccine effectiveness as low as 25% and often readjusted downward over time. COVID vaccines: Adenovirus-based vaccines linked to rare but dangerous blood clots, with media coverage downplaying the risks. Tara emphasizes informed consent and questioning medical advice. Domestic Security & Policy: Highlights recent terror-related incidents in the U.S., including attacks linked to Hezbollah and ISIS, and how failures in immigration and gun law enforcement contributed. Straw purchasing and federal gun enforcement policies under Biden are analyzed as contributing factors to domestic security vulnerabilities. KEY TALKING POINTS Israel's intelligence and military operations against Iran and Hezbollah Strategic implications of potential U.S. limited ground operations Trump's energy policy and lifting of Russian oil sanctions Impact on global oil prices, Russia, China, India, and NATO CDC data on flu and COVID vaccine effectiveness and risks Domestic terror threats, immigration policy failures, and gun enforcement issues SOCIAL MEDIA BLURB From Iran to oil markets, Israel to U.S. Marines, Tara exposes the strategies reshaping the world
Tara breaks down today's top stories: Israel's covert and overt operations against Iran, the strategic moves reshaping oil markets, domestic security failures, and what you're not being told about flu and COVID vaccines. From geopolitics to public health, this episode exposes the untold connections influencing your world. SUMMARY Middle East & Iran Conflict: Iran's new leadership remains unseen publicly; proof of life is still demanded by many. Israel is leading covert operations, striking Hezbollah targets across Lebanon and taking out key Iranian nuclear scientists. Limited U.S. forces may be deployed in strategic zones, like the Strait of Hormuz, to control oil flow and pressure Iran economically. Regional conflict impacts 12+ countries, influencing Arab nations, Russia, India, China, and NATO dynamics. Israel's intelligence and military actions prevent a broader escalation and protect U.S. strategic interests. Global Energy & Oil Markets: Trump's lifting of Russian oil sanctions threatens to dramatically lower global oil prices, reversing artificial inflation caused by prior sanctions. Lower oil prices impact U.S. households, the global economy, and geopolitical leverage, including pressure on China and Russia. Democrats are panicking over oil price drops and the potential shift in global energy control. Public Health Insights: Flu vaccines: CDC reports 20–25 deaths per year, potentially underreported by 10x, with effectiveness as low as 25%. COVID vaccines: Adenovirus-based vaccines linked to rare blood clots; media coverage downplays risks and avoids full disclosure. Tara emphasizes informed consent, questioning medical guidance, and reviewing CDC data critically. Domestic Security & Policy Failures: Terror incidents in the U.S., including individuals with Hezbollah contacts, highlight gaps in immigration and gun enforcement policies. Straw purchasing loopholes and DOJ enforcement failures contributed to weapons ending up in criminal hands. Biden-era policies are analyzed as exacerbating domestic vulnerability to terrorist threats. Political Context & Strategy: U.S. global strategy is reshaping alliances, constraining Iran, and influencing energy flows. Trump's moves in energy, military readiness, and sanctions highlight contrasts with prior administration policies. Changes affect global power structures, including NATO, Russia, China, and Latin America, creating a pivotal historical inflection point. KEY TALKING POINTS Israel's multi-front operations in Lebanon and Iran Strategic implications of potential U.S. limited ground operations in the Middle East Global oil markets and Russian sanctions reversal Vaccine safety, CDC reporting, and public awareness Domestic security, immigration, and gun enforcement failures Broader geopolitical effects on NATO, China, Russia, and Latin America SOCIAL MEDIA BLURB Israel strikes, Iran tensions, global oil shocks

By Thomas Randle - The epistle of James was labeled an epistle of straw by Martin Luther. What led him to make such an extraordinary statement? Does the epistle of James contradict what the apostle Paul wrote in Romans and Galatians or does it complement them? When James said that “faith without works is dead” was he
