  • Having conversations about uncertain times ahead can often leave us feeling fearful or full of despair, but this conversation with Farmer John is one filled with hope. He shares the truth about the history of farming, where things are now, and what we may see in the future, all while offering us encouragement about what is possible. No matter where you are in your journey of growing your own food, let this episode inspire you to keep fighting the good fight.
    In this episode, we cover:
    - What led John from his law practice into the homesteading life
    - The importance of food security and farm freedom
    - A brief history of industrialized food and the threat to farming
    - The deeper problem with synthetic meat and why we should not feel threatened
    - What you can do to embrace hope in the face of uncertain times
    - How the Bible informs our worldview around food and farming
    - The importance of using your experience to influence your community
    - A final note on the grave importance and great hope in growing your own food

    This is the blessing of free speach. People will learn how these speakers have changed and the people will not go to their talks.

    I was interested by the misgivings around solar energy. It feels to me like a good alternative to being dependent on the grid. I guess it makes me ask, what don't I know?

      It seemed more like a politically influenced opinion rather than a well researched statement.

    Thank you for this podcast.
    I can't help but wonder, if eating bugs and lab grown meat ever becomes the norm, what happens to all the meat animals? Are they put into zoo's, or do they become extinct? How is that "good" for them? (Animal wefare people)

      They would stop being bred at the levels they are currently being bred.

    You know it was the church that discouraged the eating of the meat. 7th Day Adventists preached that eating meat was a sin.

    His statements on clean energy were incorrect and made me question his credibility.
