Homesteading for the Kingdom

Amy K. Fewell

Homesteading isn't just a trend or a lifestyle, it's a calling. And as the world sees more and more atrocities, many feel a call back to homesteading—the way our ancestors lived for centuries. More importantly, though, homesteading is a biblical way of living. 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 says, "make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you, 12 so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody." We talk about all things kingdom and homesteading here.

Psalm 46:2 -- Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, Psalm 91:5 -- You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, Proverbs 3:7 -- Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. Isaiah 8:11-13 --  11 This is what the Lord says to me with his strong hand upon me, warning me not to follow the way of this people: 12“Do not call conspiracy    everything this people calls a conspiracy; do not fear what they fear,    and do not dread it. 13The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy,    he is the one you are to fear,    he is the one you are to dread. Isaiah 41:10 -- So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 51:6-8 Lift up your eyes to the heavens,    look at the earth beneath; the heavens will vanish like smoke,    the earth will wear out like a garment    and its inhabitants die like flies. But my salvation will last forever,    my righteousness will never fail. 7 “Hear me, you who know what is right,    you people who have taken my instruction to heart: Do not fear the reproach of mere mortals    or be terrified by their insults. 8 For the moth will eat them up like a garment;    the worm will devour them like wool. But my righteousness will last forever,    my salvation through all generations.” JOHN 16:33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
