Don't forget to let me know what I should name that plant! Also, those purple flowers... I have no idea how to water those either. Should I like plant them?! Any advice is appreciated.

@melissalara2 Ай бұрын

Looks like it's Pilea cadierei or "Aluminum plant". I Love the name "George"! ❤ 🪴 I have not had one, it says to water once or twice a week once the top layer of soil has dried out.

@0710Tae Ай бұрын

Name him Del Sol 😆 the Sun or Of the Sun not to be confused with The Son 🥰🙏🏽✝️ or El Agua, the water to remind you to water him/her ❤ Just a thought lol, I’m sure whatever you name him/her is gonna be grrrrreat!!!

@candicesmith8543 Ай бұрын

I also like George for the plant. 😁

@kerrieonmywaywardson Ай бұрын

Loved this video! Couldn’t just plant be some sort of peperomia? If the ridges are deep and tactile, that’s my guess! If it is, water once the leaves bend under pressure and no longer feel stiff.

@livinghopeblog Ай бұрын

@@melissalara2 I absolutely agree with the name George! Only because I have a stuffed giraffe named George lol

I finally made the commitment to buy my first journaling Bible! I'm a teen whose been a Christian for a year and I'm just now learning how to study the Bible for myself. My dad is suuuuuper into Bible theology and history (he was a pastor for a few years!) and I recognized a lot of the resources you showed! I use them too (I love to raid his office hehehe). You've helped me a lot!

You will never read or study a better book! I am a 66 year old grandma, and I started my Bible reading in third grade, thanks to a wonderful SST. She inspired me to read the book of Esther. And from that point on I was hooked!

Don't forget, if you can't afford a resource, check with your local library. They can probably get it if they don't have it. Might take a few weeks for interlibrary loan, but it's worth a shot. P.S.... I need 2 rooms like this... one for my Bible stuff, one for my craft stuff.

@turnersheavenlyhomestead Ай бұрын

Hey Faith I work for a plant and produce shop. George is an Aluminum Plant. He can get 1 ft tall and spread out 8 inches. He is best indoors it is not warm enough in your area to plant outside. He is a perennial he thrives in bright, INDIRECT light ☀️. Water him every 3-5 days between spring and fall-attempting to keep the soil moist but not wet. The plant will not drink as much during periods of slow growth such as winter, during which you may need to shift the frequency of watering to a weekly to bi-weekly schedule, making sure to allow the upper 1/3 of soil in the pot to dry between watering 💦. That is all I can think of. If George gets to big for his pot send me a message and I can help you out

Faith, my dear, you’re worried about nerding out…. Lol…. If you could only see our faces at getting a tour of your library and a close up look at your books! Lol We’re all taking screenshots and writing down the names and dreaming about filling up our own bookshelves! Lol 😂❤❤❤❤❤

Love this! It’s really a library goal. I’ve like 3 bookshelves currently and they’re overflowing and messy. I’m thinking of finding a week to tidy it up and clear out some of the secular books in there I’ve collected back before I was saved. I love that you put the books according to OT and NT, it makes it really easy to grab a book and lets you know when there’s any book missing when you’re looking for it.

I went to a Nancy Guthrie women's workshop. Really awesome. It was God's timing when I went to that. I had just finally started reading my Bible regularly, but then she was kind of my first exposure to theology. Then not long after, your channel was suggested and my study has been advanced so much. If I had seen Nancy a year earlier, I don't think I would have gotten as much out of it. If I hadn't been to that workshop, I wonder if I would have immediately understood the way you study and been able to apply those great study tactics for my own Bible time. Thank you to both of you women for all your hard work and spreading your knowledge of how to learn and grow closer to the LORD!

I can't typically afford resources, but I have been blessed with a lot from my local second-hand store. Also, I do get gift card for Christmas and birthdays for the bible bookstore and that has been a huge help. I've been blessed with a family that didn't raise me but is very supportive of me deepening my faith. Thank-you for sharing what works for you to give us ideas on where to start. I would have never even known about commentaries, bible dictionaries or bible atlases if it wasn't for you.

Regarding women in the church: I love the cultural aspect of studying scripture. There are SO many things that are easier to understand when we know the audience it was written for. Knowing that women’s education in the law was rudimentary at best, of course they couldn’t teach. Not the case now.

you dont owe any one an explanation for why you would put stuff where it works for you. Or what they might think about books that you have. Books of all kinds are important. The plant is a type of Pilea. bright indirect light, well drained, water when the top inch gets dry. They do not like to stay wet. pinch if you want to keep bushy. Can reroot cuttings. enjoy.
