Returning to the blessing of the small things

Rediscovering the blessing that resides in the little things of life has been one of the challenges of every season I've lived through. This is the conclusion I always come to when I take a moment to reflect.

Plant-based and protein-rich

The fear of protein deficiency is one of the oldest and most persistent barriers to adopting a plant-based diet.

The effect of our consumption on the planet is irreversible

We have introduced so much carbon dioxide into nature's operating system that we no longer know "what is an act of God and what is an act of man" when it comes to natural disasters striking with increasing frequency and overwhelming power, says Nathan Lewis, a chemistry and energy specialist at the California Institute of Technology.

Perceptions of balanced nutrition in the digital age

Attitudes toward food form a complex mosaic shaped by factors such as nutritional needs, hunger, taste preferences, socioeconomic status, demographic and emotional influences, as well as ethical, cultural, and religious values.

The genuine goodness of that Samaritan

Being a Good Samaritan isn’t just about doing good—it’s about embracing the kind of life Jesus wants for each of us.

The illusion of the ideal calcium source

The face of a love that waits at the gates of Heaven
