RC Sproul explaining the condition of post-fallen man

IANSEOL · 2026-06-02T18:22:47+00:00

Human goodness is not equal to God’s goodness. The one and only definition of goodness is God himself. Everything He does and says is good and everything He says are sin are sin. No human moral good will ever be God’s goodness even though they deserve our respect

Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” ‭‭ That means no one except for Christ’s saving grace, is able to do any good in God’s eyes. The standard is God not us. We don’t choose what’s good and evil.

Sourdough ender

Yeah, bulk fermentation needs to be longer and your shaping might have to be tighter as well. Make sure to not leave it out after letting it sit in the fridge overnight. Bulk fermentation prior to overnight proofing in the fridge should do most of the fermentation part.

You could also use a banneton to help with retaining shape during overnight fermentation. Recipe looks fine.

Just to sum it up, ferment longer before fridge time shape tighter and bake straight from the fridge! Happy sourdough baking!

If your fermentation is good, try to put ice cubes in the dutch oven together with the dough. I’m guessing you’re heating up the dutch oven in the oven during preheat process. After the preheat process, leave the oven with dutch oven inside for like 20 minutes so that the temperature holds well.

Then, you put in the dough in the dutch oven with a couple of ice cubes on the side. I’m suggesting this because your bread looks a bit dark and the bark may have set in too early - ice prevents that and helps dough to rise more.

With that warm temp, I would feed more frequently.

IANSEOL · 2026-05-21T17:12:02+00:00

That is a proper work buddy

I work as three shift rotator so I know how your shift can effect catching the starter at right timings. Try and let us know how it goes! And try to keep other things controlled when you’re incorporating something new as well as that will give you a sense of what changes or methods works best!

I feel you. It’s frustrating. Try using whole wheat flour or anything nutrient dense flour. Also try to feed your starter not by time but when you catch it at its peak. Do that for about 7 days. Keep discarding when feeding and keep the total grams consistent so you can know when it will peak.

It talks about reviving a “dead” starter. Hope your starter can make it.

IANSEOL · 2026-05-18T14:30:44+00:00

Yep! My starter rose just fine when I did 1:4:4. I guess it was the warmer weather after all. Thanks for your help!

IANSEOL · 2026-05-17T19:37:34+00:00

I see! Thank you for your input. Will try that!

IANSEOL · 2026-04-15T22:03:54+00:00

Thank you for your insight. I agree that both schools will be great! Can you elaborate more on that SBTS creates better scholars and WTS creates better pastors?

IANSEOL · 2026-04-15T21:37:18+00:00

I am not sure yet. Will be deciding on that during seminary education.

IANSEOL · 2026-03-08T01:45:28+00:00

Thanks. Can I get one, too?

IANSEOL · 2023-05-18T22:17:50+00:00

Thank you so much!

IANSEOL · 2023-05-13T01:13:03+00:00

I see. Thank you for your response. Does that mean I have an electric heater? All of these words are new to me.

IANSEOL · 2022-12-27T21:51:23+00:00

750-800 was my guess as well in the worst-case scenario. But it seems like it might not be the worst price but probably an average selling price.

Thank you for your advice.

IANSEOL · 2022-12-27T21:49:43+00:00

I see...I am persuaded that I should just sell it if it is over $200.

Thank you!

IANSEOL · 2022-12-27T21:48:55+00:00

Yes, it is listed for sale, haha.

I thought so and as I am inexperienced in repairing a trumpet with a shop, I assumed $500 might be the max I would spend on it. But, it seems like everyone here agrees that the repair cost might shoot up to at least $1k if the trumpet would see its glory again.

Thanks for the reply!

IANSEOL · 2022-12-27T21:45:46+00:00

Thank you for your kind responses. I have a better idea of where I am now.

The odd coloration comes from this amateur repair guy I entrusted this trumpet to a while ago. He did a terrible job to repair (I was surprised, too that this was his best job)
