Have you voted yet? Are you planning on voting? Last month, pollster George Barna conducted a national survey of faith-driven voters, and the results were concerning: just over half of evangelical voters intended to participate in this election. That may have shifted as record numbers of citizens have cast early ballots. As of Friday, more than 60 million people have already voted. For perspective, in 2020 just over 161 million ballots were cast in total. I hope you’re among those numbers; if not, I hope you have plans to vote before the polls close.
Here’s why it matters. In Matthew 25, Jesus tells the story of the talents: “For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money” (Matthew 25:14-18).
If you’re unfamiliar with this parable, here’s a summary: the master who traveled to a far country symbolizes Jesus, who departed but will return. His followers are the servants, entrusted with gifts and opportunities to multiply truth and expand the Kingdom of God.
Those who took risks, engaged, and brought a return were rewarded with greater responsibility and authority. The servant who, out of fear or laziness, hid his gift was cast out as useless.
This parable teaches us that although we don’t all have the same gifts or opportunities, we each have a responsibility to use what we have to advance God’s truth. Christians in North Korea, China, or Cuba don’t have the same freedoms we enjoy here in America. Here, we can elect leaders who influence the world, and the policies they push either advance or hinder truth globally. […]

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
