And, they're right at home here in South Carolina.

There is something so wonderful about drinking a coffee and moseying around the different stands on a weekend morning, picking up fruits, vegetables, herbs, and more along the way. And let’s not forget about the samples! We’ll take toothpick-skewered small bites any time. But the question that follows, once you get home from the market with a tote bag full of goodies, is, "What do I do with my new fresh produce?"

When it comes to international cuisine, there are countless ways to cook, marinate, and serve a variety of meats. Whether you're enjoying a stew, a sandwich, or just a plate of meat, that meat likely went through an intensive cooking method before it made it to your plate. Birria and barbacoa are two types of cooking methods that, while similar at the surface level, are characterized by notable differences. But perhaps most importantly, birria originated in Mexico while barbacoa is thought to have originated in the Caribbean. Over time, though, barbacoa has become a popular cooking style in Mexico as well.

Having the opportunity to be engaged in a constant dialogue with Christ is more than just a hope. It can happen just the same as when we sit at our kitchen table and have an enjoyable conversation with a friend. And how is this possible? Because He’s real the same as you and I are real. Remember that old song, “My God is real, for I can feel Him in my soul?” If you believe He has spoken to people before, why can’t He speak to you? God communicates to us in our conscience, by providence, teachers, and most importantly through His holy word. We read in the Bible that He also speaks through dreams, and visions, and has spoken audibly. Whatever way He chooses to make contact, it’s our responsibility according to Revelation 2:7 to have ears to hear what He has to say.
