    It is pear and apple butter making time! Today we are preserving LOTS of apples and pears. I am experimenting with a new recipe today for a lower sugar version of a classic our family loves. This recipe is made with honey and is lower sugar than traditional apple butter or pear butter. I also use a combination of the crockpot or slow cooker and the instant pot. This video was filmed over three days, because there was a lot of canning to be done. Come along as we make dinner and fresh sourdough bread too.
    Thanks for watching!

      Grandpas are the best! I surprise myself with how much I can get done too haha. A baby carrier and giving the kids their own "tasks, like washing" does help get things done. A lot of the bulk of the "work" is done during nap time and after bed times I will say though. -Cara

    I’m in town taking an ice cream break but I had to stop halfway in your video to say thank you for sharing your testimony! You are so right-knowing Jesus as our Savior is the absolute most important thing! I too am so thankful for the free gift of salvation through Him! I pray that many will open their hearts to The Savior through your sweet testimony.

    Wonderful your grandpa gave you so much fruit. You are set on vitamin C!😁🧡🍎 I absolutely love apple butter! Never figured out why they call it butter tho, lol. However my grandpa used to slather it atop his butter bread!😁 Oh and then he'd dip it into his coffee, haha! He's still kicking at 86, too. ❤ Dinner looked yummy. Have a blessed week.😊🧡🍁🍂

    It’s beautiful of you to share your faith. I’d like to counter your thoughts on heaven and hell going. There is no mention of an “immortal soul” anywhere in the bible. Likewise, the translation of the Hebrew word hell simply means covered ground. But the bible talks of a resurrection of faithful people. Abraham died in faith not having received the promise because he is going to receive it at the coming of Jesus. Look at beautiful Israel and the hatred the world has of them right now. The bible tells us it will be so in the days before Jesus returns to Earth. Even so come, Lord Jesus

      Hello, thank you for sharing your opinion. ζωὴν (zōēn) is the Greek word used for life in John 3:36, which means "Life, both of physical (present) and of spiritual (particularly future) existence. From zao; life."
      αἰώνιον (aiōnion) is the original Greek translation for the word for eternal in the verse which translates to "perpetual". (The new testament was originally written mainly in Koine Greek. The Old Testament was written in Hebrew. ) John 3:36 say, "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them."
      Here is a great resource if you want to research this more.
      www.gotquestions.org/human-soul-mortal-immortal.html
      www.gotquestions.org/Bible-hell.html
      www.gotquestions.org/what-is-eternal-life.html www.gotquestions.org/is-there-life-after-death.html www.gotquestions.org/going-to-heaven.html www.gotquestions.org/Old-Testament-eternal-security.html
      The website I linked has sound Biblical theology in my opinion, but the best resource is of course getting into scriptures and reading the Bible for yourself. I do not know all the answers, but I do love learning about the original greek and Hebrew translations and the historical context of the time everything was written as well.
      I have visited Israel in the past and it does break my heart to see suffering. I hope this helps shed some light on where my beliefs come from. -Cara
