Southwestern Rice & Pinto Bean Salad

July 16, 2012 Reasonable Recipes Tim Jennings, M.D.

This salad is an easy, colorful side dish which provides good flavor and protein. It can be paired with roasted vegetable to complete the meal.

Cream Of Asparagus Soup

March 12, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

Pureeing an aromatic rice adds a delicate flavor and creates a creamy, non-dairy base for this soup. May be served without blending for a heartier texture. I found it delicious either way!

Southwestern Fruit Salad

March 12, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

Jicama (pronounced “hick-a-ma”) is a root vegetable that looks similar to a turnip. Jicama is a good source of fiber and its crunchy texture works well in salads.

Savory Oat Groats And Kale

March 5, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

Oat groats are the whole kernels of oats. They are sweet with a moist but chewy texture, almost meaty. It may seem different eating oats for lunch or dinner but you’re going to love them in this dish! So filling and delicious!

Maple Millet Delight

February 20, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

Millet is delicious in this sweet breakfast treat. Eating a hearty breakfast helps to curb the urge to snack, prevents irritability and fatigue and helps to stabilize blood sugar levels. Don’t skip breakfast!

Roasted Vegetables and Chickpeas

February 13, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

Roasting brings out the sweetness and boosts the flavor of hearty veggies in this filling dish.

Papya French Dressing

February 6, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

This dressing surprised me with it’s unique combination of flavors. It’s very creamy, yet light and delicious! Try it over a plateful of tomatoes or tossed with baby field greens. Feel free to experiment with basil, cilantro or other herbs in place of the thyme.

Three Bean Chili

January 30, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

Cumin and paprika add earthy flavor to this marvelous meatless chili. Serve with a hearty salad and corn bread or corn muffins. This is one of my favorite meals!

Cucumber And Mint Salad

January 23, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

This simple salad is light and refreshing! Serve it with your favorite soup or try spreading hummus in a toasted whole wheat pita and then stuff the pita with the salad. So delicious and very satisfying!

Peanut Butter Cookies

January 16, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

A teenage house guest of ours sampled these and exclaimed, “Mmmm! These taste just like the ones my Grandma used to make!”

Lentil & Bulgur Soup

January 9, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

Simple yet substantial, this warming soup combines vegetables with whole-grain bulgur and fiber-rich lentils for a hearty main course. Serve with a big salad and toasted pitas. The recipe says it serves 4, but I have to double it to serve 4 in my house!

Homemade Nut Milk

January 2, 2012 Reasonable Recipes admin

Homemade nut milk is heavenly and so easy to make. Almond is the most commonly used nut because of its mellow flavor. But do experiment with other nuts and seeds, just keep in mind that the milk will retain the distinct flavor of the nut or seed used.

Testimony 3

My husband is a pastor and I listen to your lesson almost every week. Thank you for helping me in my study life and to help me love the "real" God more.

Testimony 13

I borrowed "Healing The Mind" DVDs from a friend and showed them at my home for a small gathering of women friends. Neither of my friends are Adventist, but they both enjoyed and embraced the messages you taught. In fact, one of the ladies prayed out loud in our group and that was the first time she had ever had public prayer.

Testimony 14

We really appreciate your views on the judgment and they make good sense considering our free choice.

I have been sharing Come And Reason Ministries Bible study lessons with several folk. You have such a beautiful view of the plan of salvation. If we had this message preached when I was young, my generation would still all be in church.

Testimony 7

Ok, so last night I listened to "The Law of Liberty" and "How to Achieve Victory: Freedom, Truth and Spirtual Warfare." These are both MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES so far! The logic is just soooooo beautiful. I had to re-listen to them a couple of times. I just want to EXPLODE! (<< we assume with joy and happiness)

I have been really blessed reading your response to the various questions on your site.

Testimony 34

I was introduced to Come and Reason Ministries by accident, via a passing comment made in a bible study class we were visiting. I checked this website out and my life was changed. The understanding of the truth of God's character, and how we apply it, is so right. The tricky part is consistently applying which "lens" to look through. As I began to understand, I started sharing the basics of this understanding with a discussion group I was leading and, suddenly, a lot of things started to make sense that never used to. At the same time, I enjoyed an amazing opportunity. I was able to conduct a full bible study at WORK! What an amazing experience! It is such a joy to share the truth about God and to share how it all fits in the war between God and Satan. So many people benefit when we have a correct understanding about how God works and who He really is! Thank you for this transformational understanding. Keep up the good work! God Bless you!

Testimony 11

I would love to have a copy of "Healing the Mind" DVDs to have in my therapy office. I enjoy having clients check out materials to enhance their therapy experience. I have sat under Dr. Jennings' teaching at an American Association of Christian Counselors convention and respect his work greatly.

Testimony 32

The message [of Come And Reason Ministries is] for all Christians (and those who may become Christians) and not just Adventists or any other group. It is difficult to imagine why any [anyone] with intellectual and spiritual honesty could find fault with the way you explained the healing substitution concepts and the truth about God's character, though I know some will reject and criticize. On behalf of those in our group near Tacoma, WA, thank you and your staff for all of the hard work and for sharing the Gospel in this manner. God's message of healing love will be carried to the whole world and then Jesus will come - He promised it.

Testimony 43

Two years ago I stumbled upon your book, "Could It Be This Simple," and then found "The God-Shaped Brain" videos on YouTube, your bible study class, and the 'Come And Reason' mobile app. I shared your book with a friend and after nine months of showing love, patience, and kindness this person has been changed by the love of God, too. The same love that healed me, I now express to other women in tangible ways, such as to a Baptist woman with high anxiety and childhood trauma. She was extremely happy and relieved when I shared about the so-called "judgment of God" and burning in hell. She had no desire to serve a God that was so harsh. I have repeated the phrase dozens of times to her. "What we believe has power over us, but we have power over what we believe..."

This message that you are sharing has changed my life. I will continue to serve other women and bring this message of God's healing love to their lives by sharing your books, YouTube videos, and The Remedy Bible app. Keep up the good work. Don't be discouraged. God is doing a mighty work in and through this ministry!

I would just like to add my voice to the many people who, I believe, must have contacted you to express their appreciation for the "Healing the Mind" DVDs. I've been listening to your Bible study class discussions for many years and I've been personally blessed by your research and teaching about the character of God.

L. G., Oakland, MI, USA

Testimony 10

I personally download and listen to each of Come And Reason Ministries Bible study class lessons and PDF study notes to use when teaching my class. Really appreciate the class especially when Dr. Jennings is teaching. Thank God there are persons like him doing His work and traveling to share His beliefs.

Testimony 45

I have been confused for years about what [christianity] calls [its] most disgusting teaching. It has never made much sense to me and for that reason has been evermore empty. I have listened to your class off and on and have struggled determining what is truth, because of the resistance design law encounters in the church. So, I thank God for your ministry. What you teach makes sense. It's logical and backed up by the power of love. I have never seen that in Christ until now. I am astounded by the insight that is found when we look at God's ministry through design law. All strength to this message, as I believe it to be the power of God.

Brendon S.

Testimony 50

After coming into contact with Come And Reason Ministries, I can finally say that many of my unanswered questions have fallen into place. I discovered that my view of God’s Law was “imposed laws and rules” with “imposed punishments” and that this was the major culprit of my many unanswered questions. Thanks be to God for using you and those around you to help us who have struggled with this "infection" of thought. I have now rejected the "imposed law" concept to fully embrace “Design Law”... to look thru “Design Law,” instead of “imposed law,” is a relief.

Testimony 17

The blessings of clarity and understanding you and your class inspire me to take from the word of God have impressed upon me so greatly the true, loving character of our Creator. I have found amazing freedom and joy through building a stronger, more intentional relationship with Him. What is new is that this is now a relationship built on love, reverence and respect rather than fear and obligation, and as such my eyes have been slammed OPEN as I am continually impressed by the manifestations of God's true character in His provisions for fallen man.

Testimony 51

I Love This Ministry!!!!!!! I see first hand how this message is desperately needed, how erroneous beliefs about God and His Character negatively affect humanity at every level. I thank God for your ministry, as I was searching on my own and was discovering some of your same beliefs and was blown away when I found your ministry. I know you hear it all the time, but it is truly life changing. May God continue to reveal His Will to you and Bless you!

Testimony 22

I have found your Bible study class lectures to be very inspiring and useful as I prepare to teach class every other week. I subscribe to the podcast and download your notes on the weeks I teach. The audio and notes are such a great help in preparing. My own understanding of God’s character has grown as I teach the class. Commendations on the thought-provoking and well-prepared material Come and Reason provides. Personally, I get excited by the tie you make between the spiritual and mental/physical domains.

A.A. Corrales, NM, USA

Testimony 25

I just want to say thank you so much for your conversations via YouTube. I regularly tune in to your lectures, "Let's Talk" sessions, and many others. Through these I've found greater depth and meaning to God's word. Thanks for all that you do and please continue. I'm currently working in the middle of Silicon Valley at Stanford University. I feel like God really has me in the right place right now and I'm sensing that your teachings might be part of it.
