The Gold Nugget Farm

The Gold Nugget Farm

This week, we talk about the lessons our parent taught us by just living their life.  We can say with certainty that our parents lifestyle matched what they taught.  Alicia talks about what the commitment to caring and compassion can do and how her parents taught her that through the animals they brought onto the farm.  David talks about the consistent patience both of his parents showed constantly through gardening and raising many kids in one house, which David now naturally portrays regularly (even if quicksand hasn't been the nemesis he thought he would need his patience for).

Instructions are Optional

This week, we focus in a little on David's personal motto:  "instructions are optional."  We look at a handful of examples that shows David's refusal to allow instructional pages or directions to tell him what to do.  We break down what can happen when we decide to ignore the instructions, including making things increasingly more difficult for yourself.  We hear talk more about a topic that is popular among us.  "Dave be Different"  and Alicia talks about witnessing this specific Dave be Different moment live and in person.  In this episode, David nearly adopts a new motto. As usual, we look into what the bible says about the topic and this week we visit a verse from Proverbs.   REFERENCE: Proverbs 12:15 [https://www.bible.com/bible/59/PRO.12.15.ESV] Thank you for listening to Life at the Table!

The Ring Is Gone!

In this week's episode, we talk about the emotional weight we place on things. From wedding rings to baseball tickets, we see just how much value we put into stuff; which sometimes makes us think that the stuff has more value than the memory or the moment they are connected to.  Alicia talks about (David) losing her wedding ring and how she grieved it when she (David) lost it but realized that the ring didn't hold the moment, the memories or the feelings but it was just a symbol of them.  We look at what Jesus says about earthly possessions and tie it together with our personal experiences.  REFERENCE: Matthew 6:19-20 [https://www.bible.com/bible/59/MAT.6.19-20.ESV] Thanks for joining us for Life at the Table.  If you've been one to pull up a chair and join us around our table, please leave a review, give us a 5 star rating, like us wherever you get your favorite podcasts or share us with a friend.  For more information, visit us at hartstudios.org [https://hartstudios.org/].

Who's Steering Your Ship?

This week, Alicia and David talk about influence again but with a little twist. We look into the importance of monitoring the influence that other things have on your life.  David and Alicia remember people and examples in their own lives that have shown positive influence just by the way that people live their life.  David and Alicia discuss the difference that 1 degree of bad influence can have in your life.   From "Lord of the Rings" references to real-life circumstances, David and Alicia breakdown the ways people (and things) can have influence, often unintentionally.

Sourdough Era

In this weeks episode, we talk about sourdough.  And in true Alicia fashion, she finds an awesome way to tie the process that sourdough takes and apply it to our lives. Just like sourdough, life takes patience.  Allow God to work in you what he wants.  "Stop and smell the roses" comes to mind as David breaks down the thought of applying this process to his own life.   This episode truly is a glimpse into what we talk about around our table.  Its biblical, nerdy and completely acceptable for a gluten free diet!
