Feasting in Fellowship Fridays
Food is a extraordinary blessing… it involves every one of our senses. The smell, the sight, the texture, and yes–the sound of food is incredible! The cracking of a nut shell, soup boiling on the stove, ground beef frying in a pan, a small hand fishing in a bowl of chips… all bring their unique sound to the symphony of life.
Every bite, every sound, and every smell is a wonderful gift from our Lord, however, like all blessings if we misuse it, it can be destructive. The Bible tells us in Proverbs 25:16 that if we eat too much of a good thing we’ll get sick. So true in every area of our life, teaching us that moderation is key.

I need this book!! Thanks girl!
I've recently been diagnosed with some very serious food-related allergy and health issues. Food and cooking have always been my gift to my family, friends and church. Now I have to readjust my entire approach so that I can live, yet I still want to serve others delicious food. I could really use some encouragement to eat as a temple and to be example to others. Winning this book would be a huge blessing!
I've been eyeing this book! I'm very eager to read it…
Keep all the yummy recipes coming…we are loving them here in NC 🙂
I want to win the book!
I think this sounds like a wonderful book! You may not want to enter me in the giveaway because I live in England though and if my name came up the postage costs would be prohibitive 🙂 I'm so glad you have brought it to my attention though and I look forward to reading it soon! I'm coming to the US in a couple weeks and I plan to pick up a copy!!
Thank you so much for hosting the recipe swap! Have a lovely weekend.
I need to add that book to my reading list!
I can't wait to try this soup. I was always afraid of black beans until a few weeks ago I made some black bean and corn quesadillas. They were awesome and even the kids ate them up 🙂
I've heard wonderful life changing things about this book. I would LOVE a chance to get one. Thanks so much !
The soup looks delicious! I'm glad I popped over here. 🙂
Please enter me in your giveaway. Thank you.
I'd love to win this book! Your blog is such a blessing to me. I have tried several of your recipes and loved them all! Our favorites are the Chicken and Dumplins made Easy, Amish Style Cinnamon Chip Bread Pudding, Better than a Hug Cake & the Pinwheel cookies!
My daughters and I made the Pinwheels the other day and gave some to our mailman with a thank you note attached to let him know how much we appreciate him ( especially in the winter time).
Thank you for your blog and your recipes! God Bless You!
I would love a chance to win this book as my friend and I have mentioned reading it together. I love Black Beans and Rice, order it at Skyline every chance I get (well, when I want to be healthy). I can't wait to try this out… Thank you so much.

A friend and I just started a ladies "weight watchers" club and it sure would be fun to bring some of the tips from the book to the table!

Well my link did not work, so if you will delete the first one, I'm gong to try again!! Thanks! I'm new at this!!
Janelle,
I have a black bean soup recipe that I love to make. It is thinner than yours, but still thick enough to enjoy. I like the consistency of yours for mixing w/rice so I am going to try making yours too. There is nothing wrong w/having several black bean recipes especially since I love black beans.
I'd love to win! I would love to read Candace's book!
I am about to buy that on amazon but perhaps I won't have to now!
I'd love to win too. Thanks for the link up and all the amazing recipes
Janelle,
Found you from Courtney's site….I made your hot cocoa last Friday night when friends came over to sled…it was such a hit…VERY chocolate-y!
Thanks!
I am seeing more and more blogs and "tweets" about this new book–sounds great!
Keep up the good work!
(Oh and I read Clare's PEAK313 blog on Courtney's suggestion, too!)
