the brew*crew adventure

Pete and Maribel Hernandez have a wonderfully informative blog, Family Medicine. Every time I visit there I am so greatly encouraged, and always learn something as well! I appreciate them so much, you ought to go visit them for yourselves.

This morning I was pleasantly treated to a great article they linked to on the intrinsic values and reasons for pursuing Homesteading - Agrarian Life vs. Industrial Life. It's a great read, and falls in line with the very thoughts Chris and I have been ruminating over for the past few years. We're working towards this goal... to SIMPLIFY, live on less $, get rid of all debts, live at, in and from our home, grow our own food... Granted, it's all a bit daunting to green horns like ourselves, but it's a great adventure, we'll just take one day at a time as we move forward in baby steps toward our goals (which I'll share more on later). We believe the dividends will far outweigh any felt sacrifices.

Be sure and check out Chad's other related article; The Lament of a Repentant Capitalist, and the Hope of Christian Agrarianism
I just love his writings. He also shares some interesting thoughts on the Sabbath, Where is His Honor?.

Thanks for sharing Pete and Maribel!
