Folks, This Ain't Normal

A Farmer's Advice For Happier Hens, Healthier People, And A Better World

BY JOEL SALATIN
Salatin, hailed by the "New York Times" as "Virginia's most multifaceted agrarian since Thomas Jefferson [and] the high priest of the pasture" and profiled in the Academy Award nominated documentary "Food, Inc." and the bestselling book "The Omnivore's Dilemma," understands what food should be: Wholesome, seasonal, raised naturally, procured locally, prepared lovingly, and eaten with a profound reverence for the circle of life. And his message doesn't stop there.

Abundant Simplicity

Discovering The Unhurried Rhythms Of Grace

BY JAN JOHNSON
Which activities give you energy and connect you with God? Simplicity is about choosing the engaging, relational life we were meant to live. It means shedding obligation and pretension. It means spending time energy & money in ways that help us become clear-headed. It means being intentional about what we do and how we live. These choices allow God's power to move through us and bless others as we have space to do good. In each chapter Jan Johnson provides small experiments with simplicity as well as questions for discussion or reflection to get you started. Come and discover the unhurried rhythms of grace.
