Hospitality and Carrot Loaf

Hello Beloved! Here we are with recipe #11 in our 13 week series of healthy, delicious, no frills meals to help you build and sustain your temple. This week's recipe is perfect for showing some hospitality this Fall: Carrot Loaf.

Last week we encouraged you to take care by feasting on true comfort food--the Word. All our feasting, with the help of the Holy Spirit, should pour forth works that bring glory to our Father. This week let your works declare the glory of our God by showing some hospitality.

Our Sister, Ashley Hales has a few pearls of wisdom to help you along, in  her new book, "Finding Holy in the Suburbs". You can get a taste by reading this excerpt featured on iBelieve.com: This isn’t Pinterest Entertaining: The Call for Hospitality in the Suburbs.

Happy temple building!

Take care. Bless many.
