The Queen's Head
Top tags:
Service was a bit slow- we waited 35 mins for our food - and we were well outside the lunch rush. They're supposed to be famous for their pies - but it's the fish and chips that looked amazing.
Really good food and service. Excellent value
The food and service was stellar. Ambience was precious
Il locale é veramente delizioso, io e il mio compagno siamo rimasti veramente soddisfatti, hamburger e carne di lombo veramente ottimi, e i camerieri simpaticissimi, super consigliato!
Great place, fantastic food, service well and beyond fantastic. The 8 pm entertainment made the whole evening a wonderful experience. Would recommend this restaurant in a heartbeat.
An excellent place, with great food, service and atmosphere. This was our second visit and we will definitely be back.
we enjoyed our meal before going to the theatre. Service on one dish was a bit slow - though we were warned we wonder why as it was a relatively simple salmon dish.
We chose this simply on the basis of its location as we had an early show at the Piccadilly Theatre. Now we know it exists we will return. The Queens Head is an independent historic pub one minute from Piccadilly Circus. Upstairs is a quiet restaurant with lovely staff. The menu includes pre-theatre options keenly priced and a good selection of vegetarian options too. Pies are a speciality. We had a vegetarian pie with mash and veg-good pastry and tasty filling-pub fare updated for modern times. Also salmon beautifully cooked. We noticed others eating huge portions of fish and chips too. The cheese comes from Paxton and Whitfield and the drinks are good too. Happy to recommend it.
We visited this lovely pub after a matinee at the theatre. Although it was quite busy downstairs, the restaurant upstairs was very peaceful. Service could not have been better and the food was yummy.
Terrific food, tasty beers, great value
The BEST Pie's in town! Everyone at my table ordered a different one some with meat, some without, all fantastic!
Le personnel est aux petits soins, les plats sont copieux, très bon endroit, belle découverte
Service and ambiance , classic London ..love this place, look forward to it every time I'm in town
Special mention for the biggest Fish and chips that we have ever seen .
All seams home made.
Very good expErience. For children, 1 fish and chips for two would be enough... (pour children are 8 and 11)
Great restaurant. Excellent food and service. Not very crowded upstairs given its location which was wonderful.
All three of us had the Beef and Ale pie and it was excellent. We were booked in at 6 as we were going to the theatre and the service was good but unhurried. I would certainly happily recommend this place.
The service was fantastic and the food was delicious
Ottima qualità, bell' ambiente e prezzi per gli standar londinesi onesti
Good honest food, friendly service and a warm atmosphere. Great value, would definitely recommend
Fish & chips and the pies are amazing. A pleasant surprise for the location. The food is amazing - must try while in London.
Outstanding pies, good beer, great location, friendly staff, not too noisy. Thoroughly recommend it.
A lovely meal - great gluten free options clearly explained - friendly staff - not rushed - would recommend
Lovely independent pub, good bar with quirky seating and a nice atmosphere.
Tasty, wholesome pub food. We had the pies, steak and chicken as they were recommended and
we enjoyed them. The dining room is lovely and feels like a private venue.
A good find in central London, away from the crowds but just off the beaten track, that feels authentic and is worth a visit.
Great place to meet a friend from out of town for a catch up. Steak & ale pie and mash was delicious, beer lovely, nice little restaurant upstairs a haven of calm and shelter from the crowds below, to talk without having to raise our voices. Really liked that it's an independent pub doing well too, and they say they use local suppliers and ingredients - would have been nice to know who these are.
Good food. We ordered sparkling wine but received champagne,they charged us the lower price.
Food took a bit longer then expected, but the waitress kept us informed and discounted the bill as compensation. Quite a small dining area, so suggest booking at busy times.
Would return.
Staff where very friendly
Good traditional pub food
Very handy for the Piccadilly theatre just next door
We live this resataurant and their good, inventive, honest cuisine. Wonderful dinner pies. Cozy, not too loud, not too big. Expansive, friendly service. We try to come here for dinner when we are in town. Great fir a date or dinner with friends. What it is not is formal. Great food, great value. I shouldn't have told you
Good place for fish and chips
Good experience. Had lunch alone in business trip.
Nice room, friendly attentive staff, but food is lacking. Probably fine to go grab a drink, but for dinner I would go elsewhere.
Cena con bambine alla fine di una giornata "turistica". Tutto buono!!!
Good honest good. Staff attentive and friendly. Fab beer.
Very friendly and accommodating staff. Very attentive, service and food were amazing!!!
We met up with some friends from LA who wanted to try typical British food and they loved this place. Great fish and chips and pies!
Main course very nice and nicely presented. Dessert was delicious very good value for money
Enjoyed some fine cuisine in an authentic and historic setting before the theatre. Cheeseboard and fish and chips were lovely and a great value as well. Very small restaurant so recommend reserving a table.
The food, ambience, and people were superb. I was able to get authentic English pub experience.
Lovely meals- can recommend tha lamb and pea pie & fish and chips. Staff excellent and so helpful with husband's dairy allergy. Would definitely recommend
This was a great pre theatre find to add to our collection of go to places. Simple hearty menu at great prices. They needed an extra person to help out with service to make it perfect.
I had the best fish and chips I've ever eaten at Queen's Head! Would recommend to anyone!

I do not think stress is a legitimate topic of conversation, in public anyway. No one ever wants to hear how stressed anyone else is, because most of the time everyone is stressed out. Going on and on in detail about how stressed I am isn't conversation. It'll never lead anywhere.

I love that 'Much Ado About Nothing,' passionate, smart fighting. I love fighting with guys, and that's something that I don't get to see: arguing at a high level with a member of the opposite sex. That didn't really happen that much on 'The Office.' I just like that 'Moonlighting,' Benedick-Beatrice type of thing.

Here's my feeling: For everyone, men and women, it's important to be a feminist. It's important to have female characters. It's wonderful for women to mentor other women, but it's just as important for women to mentor men and vice-versa. In my line of work, having Greg Daniels be such a great mentor to me is fantastic. Finding a writer's assistant, be it a man or a woman, and encouraging them to think with a feminist perspective, is key.

People talk about confidence without ever bringing up hard work. That's a mistake. I know I sound like some dour older spinster on Downton Abbey who has never felt a man's touch and whose heart has turned to stone, but I don't understand how you could have self-confidence if you don't do the work... I have never, ever, ever, met a high confident person and successful person who is not what a movie would call a 'workaholic.' Because confidence is like respect; you have to earn it.

Lindsay Clark, Writer
Specializing in narrative nonfiction/memoir
Author Bio:
Lindsay Clark is a small town Hoosier who has spent the last decade traveling internationally and writing about postmodern nomadism on her blog Nomadderwhere.com. She graduated from Indiana University with a B.A. in Studio Art and Art History and later earned her M.F.A. in Creative Writing from Goddard College. Clark currently resides in Denver, Colorado and is finishing her first book about grief, privilege, and cross-cultural understanding set in Fiji—what she calls "the most beautiful place on Earth."
Mission Statement:
I marvel at the natural world and use writing to process that wonder. Readers of my work want to broaden their viewpoint on the world and contemplate the beauty as well as the darkness that comes with being a part of it.
As an avid traveler, educator, and artist, I have a passion for exposing new ways of thinking and living to people who don't know what they don't know (but are willing to learn!). I endeavor to tell honest stories about my lived experience as a postmodern nomad, through essays and memoirs that inspect where cultures cross or collide. It is my goal to reach people young and old through publishing traditional books as well as online platforms, in order to spark dialogues that investigate our globalized world.
Work in Progress:
I am currently finishing a travel and culture memoir set in the highlands of Fiji. The WIP will be ready in 2019, and I plan to seek representation for traditional publication.

The San Francisco comedy festival SF Sketchfest is back for its 17th year and runs January 11-28th at venues around the City. Amoeba Music is proud to co-present two stellar musical events: Epic Rap Battles of History Live and Smells Like the '90s: A Night of '90s Music and Comedy!
Epic Rap Battles of History Live
Great American Music Hall
Jan. 26th (two shows: 7:30 & 10:00 pm)
The record-breaking digital series Epic Rap Battles of History, created by Peter Shukoff (aka Nice Peter) and Lloyd Ahlquist (aka EpicLLOYD), features comedic rap battles between historical and/or pop culture figures - such as Albert Einstein vs. Stephen Hawking, James Bond vs Austin Powers, Steve Jobs vs. Bill Gates, and Jim Henson vs Stan Lee. The series, which airs on the YouTube channel /ERB, is currently the most-viewed format on YouTube on a per-episode basis. The series has garnered over three billion views and more than 14 million subscribers, and has been nominated for numerous awards including the Emmys. Musician, comedian and actor Nice Peter, and comedian and emcee EpicLLOYD first met freestyling on a porch in Chicago. EpicLLOYD recruited Nice Peter to join the improv comedy group Mission IMPROVable, which he helped found at the University of Massachusetts and later expanded across the country. In 2009 the improv group began the M.i. Westside Comedy Theater in Santa Monica, CA and after separate moves to Los Angeles, Nice Peter and EpicLLOYD connected again in the comedy circuit performing at the club.In 2010 Nice Peter, already a well-established YouTube personality, suggested that one of the live segments he, EpicLLOYD and MC Mr. Napkins (Zach Sherwin) were performing—an improv rap show that featured comedic, poignant altercations between two characters suggested by the audience—was better suited as a digital format. Tapping into his growing YouTube fan base, Nice Peter went to his channel subscribers for potential matchup ideas. Premiering on Nice Peter's channel in September 2010 as Epic Rap Battles of History, John Lennon vs. Bill O'Reilly, the first battle in the series, was an instant hit. It was Episode #2 though, Adolf Hitler vs. Darth Vader, that became a viral sensation—with now over 96 million views. Epic Rap Battles of History has since featured appearances from hugely popular stars including Weird Al Yankovic, Snoop Dogg, T-Pain, Key & Peele, Rhett and Link, George Watsky and DeStorm Power, among others.

That Majestic Name

Topic: Midweek Sermons Scripture: Psalm 8:1-9
- Listen
- Downloads
Now we come to Psalm 8 and what a great, great Psalm this is. We looked at it recently in a different context but we're going to take a completely different look at it really tonight than what we've done in the past when we were going through our doctrinal statement. For those of you that have been with us on these past many Tuesday nights which is almost all of you, I don't see any exceptions to that, Psalm 8 gives us something different than what we have seen over the past several weeks. It's a completely different spiritual atmosphere. In the past Psalms we have looked at, we've seen David in distress and discouraged and I just want to remind you of that, just kind of hopscotching through Psalms 3-7. Look back at Psalm 3 and verse 1, David said, "O LORD, how my adversaries have increased! Many are rising up against me." In Psalm 4:6, he said, "Many are saying, 'Who will show us any good?' Lift up the light of Your countenance upon us, O LORD!" In Psalm 5:1, he says, "Give ear to my words, O LORD, Consider my groaning." In Psalm 6:2, he says, "Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am pining away; Heal me, O LORD, for my bones are dismayed. And my soul is greatly dismayed; But You, O LORD - how long?" And in Psalm 7:1, he says, "O LORD my God, in You I have taken refuge; Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me, Or he will tear my soul like a lion, Dragging me away, while there is none to deliver."
So, in each of those five Psalms, we have seen a tone, a current of discouragement, of lament, of complaint, of Christ for help and there has been an undercurrent of discouragement that has marked those Psalms even though David works through the character of God and comes to a position of trust in the end. In Psalm 8, you have none of that. In Psalm 8, you have a pure statement of praise, of giving glory to God and reflecting on his works and it is by contrast quite the refreshing breath of air. Look for just a second at Psalm 7:17. I'd like for us to see the little connections that kind of stitch the Psalms together like this. In Psalm 7:17 after these multiple Psalms of lament, David says, "I will give thanks to the LORD according to His righteousness And will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High." Now, having said that, you go right into Psalm 8 where he says in verse 1, "O LORD, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth, Who have displayed Your splendor above the heavens!" And so in Psalm 8, no enemies are breathing down David's neck. He is not discouraged. In fact, he begins and ends with praise. Verse 1 again, "O LORD, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth." Verse 9 at the end of the Psalm, the exact same refrain, "O LORD, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth!" That's a literary device called an inclusio which is just a fancy word to refer to something like bookends. What begins the Psalm is the same thing that ends the Psalm and what that means is that everything in between is designed to reinforce and build up that refrain, that sense of giving glory to God. Everything in verses 2-8 are designed to bring praise to God and so it's a very interesting technique just from a literary standpoint, to begin and end at the same place. You've come full circle; you start with praise and you end with praise. But to give you a little bit of a teaser, a little bit of an appetizer for what's to come, what you're going to find is that even though the words are identical, once you have worked your way through Psalm 8, there is a fuller richness to what is said in verse 9 than there is in verse 1 because it has been informed by what David has said in between and so this is one magnificent Psalm that we get to study tonight.
Let me just pause for second and say something because I want you to be mindful of the way we're trying to approach this series overall. So far, the Psalms have been short enough that it's worked for me to do one message per Psalm instead of doing 2-3 messages on a Psalm. There are a lot of reasons for that but one of the reasons that I'm doing that and I want to call your attention to it because I'm wanting to help condition your mind to think about Scripture in a particular way. We're doing the Psalms this way so that you can see the overall flow of an entire unit of Scripture. The Psalms are, in one sense, self-contained units and we need to see them that way. We need to see them from beginning to end all in one setting. That will help us not only understand the Psalms better but it will also help us learn that we are to understand Scripture in its context. We shouldn't be taking one verse out of context and then just building whole theologies around a single verse yanked out of its context. Scripture is meant to be read like other literary things, in its flow and its context. The author says one thing and builds on it and then says something else that builds on that and that's a very important way to approach Scripture. If you have a teacher that only gives you one verse and then can talk for 20 minutes all around it and talk about things and you wonder, "Where is he getting that out of that verse?" That's not a healthy way to understand Scripture. A teacher should be helping you understand what a verse means by what went on before it and what comes after it. That's how you enter into the mind of God in the writing of Scripture and so one of the things that we're trying to do by example in this series on the Psalms is to establish an approach to Scripture that understands it in its context and that's what we're going to do again here tonight in Psalm 8.
Now, for those of you that know what lies ahead in the Psalms and you know that there are 176 verses in Psalm 119, I don't know exactly what I'm going to do with that. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it and maybe I'll have to use more time to go through that than just one message but I'm aware also that that is out ahead. So we're just taking advantage of this while we can.
Psalm 8, let's get into it. There are four points for this evening that I want to give to you and the first one is this, David shows his first point: the magnificence of God. The magnificence of God is the theme of this Psalm. It begins and ends with verse 1 that says, "O LORD, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth, Who have displayed Your splendor above the heavens!" As we pointed out, verse 9 ends in the same way. The operative word here, the defining word for what David is saying here in the opening two verses is "majestic." He's referring to the name of God which is a shorthand way to refer to the totality of his character. It's the sum of all of his attributes. From his glory to his greatness to his grace. From his holiness to his mercy to his kindness. All of those things wrapped up, talking about the name of God as the covenant-keeping, faithful God who reigns over all of the universe. This is a sweeping look at who God is and the totality of his being, is what he starts out with and he says, "Lord, you are majestic," and that word communicates the idea of something which is superior to everything else. It's a word that means the splendor of his character: it is magnificent; there is no sight in nature, there is no expression of beauty, there is no poetic word, there is no beauty that exceeds the excellence of God to be found anywhere on the face of the earth.
So David is speaking in the most comprehensive splendid ways as he opens. He's talking about the splendid fullness of God and saying that it's above all of the heavens and that it is more excellent than anything that can be found on earth. So in a very compact concise way, David has ascribed the greatest glory possible to God in this opening verse. So he has summarized all that God has revealed about his character and his might and he is thinking in the most lofty terms.
Look at verse 2 with me. He says actually at the end of verse 1, he says, "You've displayed Your splendor above the heavens! From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established strength Because of Your adversaries, To make the enemy and the revengeful cease." And so, what David has done, we can express it this way: he has gone beyond and outside of the universe to express the glory of God and said, "Your splendor is above everything that is created." Then he comes in and he rapidly goes to the small concept of a young child giving praise to God and says that "Your praise is found beyond the universe and your praise is found on the lips of young children as well." In such a way, God has revealed himself in such a macro way above the universe and in a micro way on the lips of children that it simply silences those who would be opposed to him, those who would rise up and teach contrary to him, who would sin against him. The totality of the heavens from the greatness to the smallness and all points in between silences the enemies and opponents of God. That's how great his majesty is.
And Jesus quoted this passage. I want you to turn to Matthew 21 because it is a little bit of an odd statement it would seem without anymore context. What does he mean "From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established strength"? Well, Jesus quotes this verse in Matthew 21 when he is being told to silence those who are praising him. Look in Matthew 21:14, "The blind and the lame came to Him in the temple, and He healed them. But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that He had done, and the children who were shouting in the temple, 'Hosanna to the Son of David,' they became indignant." God's enemies on the face of the earth at that time were the temple leaders and they go to Christ in verse 16 and say, "Do You hear what these children are saying?" They are opposed to Christ. They want to silence him even after he has done inexplicable miracles by the power of his hand to heal the blind and the lame in the face of the evident display of the power of God, they are still blaspheming. And these are men of societal nobility; these are men of strength; these are men of position. They are men of rank who are speaking and yet the voices of children are praising Christ in the temple and Jesus says to them after they ask him, "Do you hear what these children are saying?" Jesus says, "Yes, I hear them. Have you never read that, 'Our of the mouth of infants and nursing babies you have prepared praise for yourself?'" A loose quotation of what we are seeing here in Psalm 8 this evening.
So, even during the life of Christ when he was being opposed by the strongest religious leaders of the day, in the background were the voices of children praising him that exposed the sinfulness and the futility of their opposition to God and so it continues generation after generation. Sometimes in the days of the martyrs, the young children were lifting praise to God as the martyrs were being burned at the stake. It's told of George Whitefield that when he was being pelted by stones, that little children would come and bring him questions for him to answer and so while adults were assaulting the word of God and the testimony of God, children were there to affirm the truthfulness of what was being said. And for those of you that are young, those of you that are under the age of 12, 14, you're young, you're still on the front end, why don't you take this verse and says, "Here's what's going to set the trajectory for my life through my teenage years. I'm going to be one of those young people that declares the glory of God without shame no matter who's around me." And you just take this verse and set that and say, "I'm going to identify with the young one who praise God rather than the adults that I see that adulterate his word." Why don't you be someone like that? That would be a great outcome from a message like this for you tonight.
The praise of God, the magnificence of God opens up this Psalm. One of the things that might be helpful for us to remember just as a matter of astronomy, it's okay for me to talk about astronomy because Dr. Faulkner isn't here this evening I don't think. I'm not going to go too deep anyway. But just for us to remember that what David saw 3,000 years ago when he looked up into the night sky in Palestine in the land of Israel is much different than what we see here in a metropolitan environment where the lights of the stars are washed out by the city lights. Those of you that have ever been on a dark ocean or in a dark country place and look out and you know that there are multitudes of diamonds sparkling and just displaying such great glory and you're looking out at this spectacular, almost like a massive snow globe just displaying glory all around you and you quickly feel very small in light of it because it's just mesmerizing to look at the galaxies that you can see with the naked human eye. That's what David was seeing, not what we see in a city looking up and maybe you see 3 or 4 stars clearly. No, David was looking up and he was just seeing a kaleidoscope of heavenly bodies on display that silenced the human lips with their magnificence as he reflected on what he saw.
So David sees what Psalm 19 says "the speechless testimony to God," the silent testimony to God from the heavens; he hears the sweet innocent voices of children, as it were, testifying to the glory of God and what we see here in the magnificence of God in these first two verses is that God is so mighty, his display of his greatness is so profound that he can use silent things to silence the voices of his enemies. He can use the weakness of children to confound the strong. He can testify conclusively and convincingly to himself without a word being spoken. Just look up at the great night sky, is the idea. Charles Spurgeon said it well when he said and I quote, "What a contrast between the glory above the heavens and the mouths of babes and sucklings, yet by both the name of God is made excellent." And so, David opens this Psalm in this first two verses with a declaration of the magnificence of God.
From there, he goes on in verse 3 and this brings us to our second point this evening. He goes from the magnificence of God to the insignificance of man. The insignificance of man. That's point 2 if you're taking notes and I will be collecting the notes after the message tonight to grade them. No, that's not true. 2. The insignificance of man. What David is doing now in these next two verses is he is turning his gaze from the sky to the earth and having gazed on the magnificence of the galaxies which makes him realize that the work of God is displayed in a way that makes God himself even greater by comparison, his creation is so great how much greater must the Creator be? David turns his gaze from the sky to the earth and all of a sudden, he feels very small by comparison. The created order has humbled him. Look at verse where he says, "When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained; What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him?" This word for "man" is a word that suggests the frailty of man, the weakness of man, that man is mortal, that is subject to death. He is small and miniscule by comparison.
We all know too well but this is the idea that he has on his mind, is that man lives for a time and then passes away and so he's looked up and he sees the glory of the galaxies and he looks down and by comparison he says, "Here I am as a man. Here is this human race, a speck on a speck in a magnificent universe. God, why would you, in light of the greatness of the cosmos, why would you pay attention to a man like me?" He has been humbled and he says, "When I consider your heavens." It's interesting, the possessive pronoun there, "When I consider your heavens," he says, "the work of your fingers." Now, he's not saying that God literally has actual fingers, it's a figure of speech that ascribes human characteristics to God in order to express a thought in poetic ways. What he's saying is, "The universe that I see that is so great and so magnificent was simply a work of your fingers. It was easy for you to create the universe as it is for me to bend my knuckles." So great is the power of God, so great is the wisdom of God, that he could create the universe as easily as we can flick our fingers. It did not exhaust, it did not test the power of God to create everything that we see in six 24 hour days. That's how great he is. We couldn't begin to hang a single star in space; he's hung billions of them there. He's put them in orbit with mathematical precision. Te knows them all by names and it didn't test his power, it didn't plumb the depths of his omnipotence at all. There was plenty left where that came from.
So he says, "When I consider your heavens," and he just multiplies the synonyms, "the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained." Here's what he's thinking, here's what he's saying, "God, I look out and I see this universe that is so vast and I look down and see man by comparison and there is such a gap, there is such a vast gulf between man and this great universe which you created with your fingers. God, if you can do that and display your glory in such a magnificent broad realm, why would you give your attention and care to a little one like me? I feel small by comparison. I feel that big," pinching his fingers together, as it were. So the universe has humbled him. The display of the galaxies has made him low. It has made him realize that in comparison to the created order, he is a fleck of nothingness by comparison. He can't go to the stars. His eyes can't plunge the depth of them. They orbit around him and all he can do is watch and he's been made small. He recognizes – listen to me very carefully – he recognizes his comparative insignificance in relationship to the heavens which God has made and he says, "God, in light of that, when you have such bigger things going on, what is there about man that you care for him and that you think of him? It's just incomprehensible. God, don't you have something better to do than pay heed to one like me?" That's the insignificance of man that he feels in comparison to the created order.
But now we're going to move into point 3 which is this: the significance of man. The significance of man. That sounds like I'm getting ready to contradict myself, doesn't it? The insignificance of man, point number 2; the significance of man, point number 3. Here's what you've got to follow and here opens up vast understandings of what we're going to see here in the next 10-15 minutes or so, just opens up vast reservoirs of greatness of the purposes of God for man, the purposes of God in Christ and the noble dignity that belongs to us as members of the human race, especially as redeemed members of that human race. Here's the thing, beloved: the universe trivializes man. It most certainly does if you only look at things outwardly. If you go into the planetarium show at the Creation Museum and you see the exponential glories of space on display, the universe will make man look small and yet, here's the thing, here's where David is going, here's the pivot in the thought: the God who made that universe has given to man a lofty position in it. We do not define our relevance in the universe by comparison to the stars but in comparison to and in submission to the one who made the stars and we ask the question, "Why did he put us here? Why did he put the human race here?" and only the revelation of Scripture can inform our understanding so that we see things and understand things that are not outwardly visible. You can only understand the position of man through what God has revealed in the 66 books of the Bible.
Look where David goes in verses 5-8, I'll read all four verses here together. He says in verse 5, "Yet You have made him a little lower than God, And You crown him with glory and majesty! You make him to rule over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, All sheep and oxen, And also the beasts of the field, The birds of the heavens and the fish of the sea, Whatever passes through the paths of the seas." Now, put your finger on verse 5 and just kind of scroll down with me a little bit and notice the creative significance that God has given to the human race. He says in verse 5, "You have made him." Verse 5, "You crown him with glory and majesty." Verse 6, "You make him to rule." Verse 6, "You have put all things under his feet." What he's saying is that man owns a unique position because God has given it to him. God has assigned a place in the created order to man that is unique among all creatures on the earth and the significance of man is derived not in comparison to the environment in which he lives, the significance of man is found not in comparison to the canopy of space that surrounds him, his significance is derived from the one who made him and placed him where he is. That changes absolutely everything and we're going to talk through these verses in a moment but here's what I want you to see as a bigger point in the whole scheme of things: when our fellow so-called intellectual men deny the existence of God and define him out of existence and define man in relationship to the beasts instead of to man's real Creator, they have forfeited their dignity. Then, once they have forfeited the creative dignity that God has bestowed on him, as they deny his very existence, in trying to become free they have made themselves irrelevant in the created order. They have forfeited, they have severed the umbilical cord to their own significance by their foolish, atheistic designs that would try to rid God of his presence and all they are left with, instead of being connected upward to the great God who confers dignity on the human race, all they're left with is sharing the ground with crawling beasts who have no soul. So the consequences of an evolutionary philosophy are such that it defines the true significance of man out of existence and you deal with the consequences as men and women start to behave like beasts instead of aspiring after the one who truly created them.
Now, one other little passing thought, a little observation here. Psalm 8 does not address the reality of the fall of man in Genesis 3. It doesn't deal with the problem of sin or the consequences of sin. It doesn't deny those spiritual and theological realities. It simply isn't dealing with that point here. It's simply dealing with what God created man to be. It's dealing with the position that man holds in creation even though he has forfeited much of the privileges and he has forfeited the fellowship with God through his sin. Still, he bears the image of God and he still bears that position in creation even though it has been marred by sin. David is not dealing with that problem here, he is dealing with the more narrow reality of what God created man to be and where man derives his significance from.
So with that little bit of qualification in mind, where do we find the significance of man? What is it that ultimately makes your life matter? What is it that makes the human race matter? It's nothing that we can define on our own. It's nothing that we can achieve. In that sense, it's just like biblical salvation, it was something that was given to us. It's nothing that we could earn on our own. It's nothing that we could assert through our own power and that's what David is saying. We find the significance of man, first of all, in creation in verses 5-8. The significance of man in creation in verse 5-8: God has assigned man a high place in the created order despite his frailty and weakness. Look at verse 5. He says, "You have made him a little lower than God, And You crown him with glory and majesty!"
Now, let me just say a word about that phrase "lower than God." Some of you may have a version like the ESV or the NKJV or maybe even the NIV and other versions are translating it, it's not "lower than God" with the sense of lower than the heavenly beings or lower than the angels. The Hebrew word "Elohim" can be used in both ways. It can be used as a name for God; it can be used as a reference to angels or heavenly beings. Now, here in this case and I almost never do this, here in this case, I believe that the ESV and those other versions are translating the term better. The NASB says "a little lower than God," it's better to see this as "a little lower than the angels," and I'll give you a couple of reasons for that. First of all, the Greek translation of the Old Testament, the Septuagint which was done about 200-250 years before the time of Christ, when they were translating the Hebrew into Greek at that time, they used the word for angels, not God, as the word that they used to translate this passage here in Psalm 8. That's one reason. The more important reason is what the New Testament tells us about it, how the New Testament takes it. Look over at Hebrews 2. I just want us to be as precise as possible in understanding what David is saying here. In Hebrews 2:5, the writer of Hebrews is describing the superiority of Jesus Christ over the angels, the ministering spirits from chapter 1:14 sent out to render service for those who are saved. Now, in verse 5, he says that God "did not subject to angels the world to come, concerning which we are speaking. But one has testified somewhere, saying," and then he gives a quotation from Psalm 8 and he says, "What is man that you remember him? Or the Son of man, that you are concerned about him?" Verse 7, "You have made him for a little while lower than the angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor, and have appointed him over the works of your hands; you have put all things in subjection under his feet." That extended quotation which he's applying to Christ in Hebrews 2, in that extended quotation he uses a Greek word referring to angels to express the meaning of Psalm 8.
And so we believe here in Psalm 8 that he's saying that, "You have made man," in Psalm 8:5 if you want to go back there. In Psalm 8 we believe that he's saying, "You've made man a little lower than the angels and you crown him with glory and majesty." What would that mean then? I mean, it's obvious that man is lower than God and so what does it mean that he would be lower than angels? Well, angels are spiritual, angels are immortal. Man is physical and mortal and yet in that lower state than angels, a little lower than angels, yet in that state, nevertheless, God has taken man and appointed him over the created realm on earth and David says, "This is remarkable. Here we are of a lower order than angels and yet you have put the human race, you have appointed man to be your representative on earth to rule over it. We're a vice regent for God over the created realm on earth," David says. "Why would you do that? And yet you have. You've crowned us, you've crowned man with glory and majesty. You've given him this great position of nobility, of responsibility, of opportunity. You've given to man so much that he never could have claimed on his own. You make him to rule over the works of your hands?" There are echoes of Genesis 1 here, aren't there?
In fact, let's turn back to Genesis 1 for just a moment. David in a sense is expounding on the account of creation from Genesis 1. Genesis 1:24, "Then God said, 'Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth after their kind'; and it was so. God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good." So God has created the earth, he's put the animals on it and then in verse 26 he says, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness," and so he creates man in his own image. We've talked about that in the past, about what that means in terms of man's ability to think with reason and to have relationships. "Let Us make man in Our image and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth." So he completes his creation and then he puts man in charge. What a place of dignity. This is infinitely better than a President appointing you to be an Ambassador to a great country. This is God appointing man to rule over his creation. That is a place of significance not because man is bigger than the universe, but because God has given him something to do. He has assigned a good nature to man; he has given him something to do for which he is accountable and responsible to God himself for. That gives man significance. That is what God has made man to do.
He says at the end of verse 6, it almost reads like a commentary on those verses from Genesis 1. Turn back to Psalm 8 if you haven't done that already. Psalm 8:6, "You make him to rule over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet," and then David explains in verses 7 and 8 what he means by "all things." He explains what that means. "All sheep and oxen, And also the beasts of the field, The birds of the heavens and the fish of the sea, Whatever passes through the paths of the seas." That is what man rules over. As I like to say, that's why men build zoos and animals live in them rather than vice versa. A zoo is an expression of the created order. We put animals there and we use them for our enjoyment because that is fitting and proper for the ruler over God's creation to do.
Now, let's back up for a second to repeat myself, if you only looked at man in relationship to the universe and the vastness of it and there he is small by comparison, you would completely misinterpret his significance. The Creator has assigned a high place to man. He is in charge of creation on the earth. That's quite a role. That's quite a place to be given to you. Now, note this: we can only talk about the dignity of man, we can only speak of the noble place of the human race in the context of submission to that Creator God. As I said earlier, if you try to cut God out from it, you're left with man being a beast and he forfeits his own dignity on it. By the same token, like almost any doctrine in Scripture when you study it all the way through, there is a very fine balance to walk. You're always walking on a knife's edge as you're discussing doctrine because it's easy to go to one extreme or another and fall off the edge. We talk about the significance of man but notice this: we talk about biblical the significance of man from a place of utter humility, of complete deference, with no sense of pride in our mind at all because, first of all, in the literary context of Psalm 8, this Psalm is not about praising the dignity and glory of man, it is about praising the dignity and glory of God. "How majestic is your name in all the earth?" Here is the significance of man. "How majestic is your name in all the earth, O God?" From beginning to end it's all about the glory of God and so you understand the dignity of man only in connection to the greater glory of God and man sees his dignity and does what David did, at least he should, "Praise be to God. What a great magnificent God he is."
Now, I've used this illustration before but I'm going to use it again. This is crucial. We talk about the significance of man, we talk about the dignity of man, it is utterly essential to realize and Psalm 8 teaches so clearly that man has only a conferred dignity. He does not have an independent dignity. His dignity is derivative from the one who gave it to him. The human race has dignity only because of what God has done with it and what God has assigned to it. Here's the illustration that I've used in the past: man is like the moon in that the moon has a brilliance in the night sky but it is only reflecting light from another source. It's reflecting light from the sun and that sun is what gives the moon its brilliance, gives it its own unique glory. Take away the sun and the moon is just a dark, ugly rock in space. It reflects the glory of the sun but has no glory of its own. In the same way, beloved, man has dignity but it is a derivative dignity, it is not an independent dignity, it is a dignity that the race has because God has given it to man. So rightly understood, our dignity comes from the one who assigned our place to us and because of that we give glory and praise to him, "Thank you, O God, for giving the human race a special place in the order of your creation and giving us minds to understand it and eyes to see it with and we give you praise for your goodness to our race."
Now, if you had seat belts, if this was an airline announcement, I would say, "Please fasten your seat belts because it's going to get so much better than what I just described." Psalm 8 describes this and in what we have said, hopefully we have been faithful to what David intended us to understand, what David intended as he wrote it but by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, what David wrote went beyond what David probably understood in his own writing at the time that he wrote it because the New Testament tells us that there is another even greater aspect to the dignity of man. We've seen the significance of man in creation and that is a lofty place for it to be displayed because it is the place where God has given man his dignity but the human race enjoys an even greater source of dignity because our significance comes not only in creation, the significance of man is found in Christ. In the Lord Jesus Christ, the New Testament applies Psalm 8 to Jesus Christ multiple times. We saw it once already from that passage in Hebrews that talks about the Incarnation. Well, watch what happens now. Look at Ephesians 1. We'll get there soon enough on Sunday mornings. What you have in Christ is the perfect man. You have the second Adam. You have the ultimate representative of the human race. The eternal Son of God taking on our nature, our human flesh, and walking on earth. The Son of God entered the human race and that confers a dignity on the race that transcends anything that creation could have done.
In Ephesians 1:19, talking about the church, Paul says in verse 18, "I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of the strength of His might which He brought about in Christ," now follow this, "He brought about in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places," it gets better, "far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. And He," meaning God, "put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things to the church." In the Lord Jesus Christ, all the spiritual realm has been put under his feet. In the God who became man, the realm of the church has been put in subjection to Christ. In Christ, in the God-man, in the one who became flesh, every invisible rule and authority and dominion has been subjected to him. Christ is the God-man and all the invisible powers in the church of the redeemed are submitted to him. Truly, when David said, "What is man that you give thought to him? You've made him a little lower than the angels, you've put all things in subjection to his feet," David was thinking about it in terms of the created realm, the New Testament says that God had an even greater plan in mind to the ultimate man, to the second Adam, even the invisible realm would be put under subjection to the feet of a man. Our head, our representative, our King, our brother, the Lord Jesus Christ.
That's how much things have been put into subjection to him. That's great. But there's more. Turn back to 1 Corinthians 15. We just saw the whole invisible realm subjected to Christ, the God-man, the ultimate head of the redeemed humanity and now in 1 Corinthians 15:23, "But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, after that those who are Christ's at His coming, then comes the end, when He hands over the kingdom to the God and Father, when He has abolished all rule and all authority and power." Speaking of Christ, speaking of the God-man, "For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet. The last enemy that will be abolished is death." Now comes the quotation from Psalm 8, "For He has put all things in subjection under His feet, But when He says, 'All things are put in subjection,' it is evident that He is excepted who put all things in subjection to Him." In other words, all of creation is being subjected to Christ. The totality of it. Everything visible. Everything invisible. That covers it. That is exhaustive. Everything invisible and visible is subjected to Christ and then in verse 28, "When all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, so that God may be all in all." Christ is going to subdue everything under his feet and then he's going to hand it as an act of worship to the Father.
As a man, Christ will return to earth and personally rule over creation. It will all be under subjection to him but the beauty of it, the glory of it, the glory of Christ, the glory of the fulfillment of Psalm 8 is that Christ will not squander the opportunity like Adam did. Adam sinned his way out of the high role that was given to him and he was kicked out of the Garden of Eden righteously for his rebellion against God. Christ, by contrast, will come, subject all things to himself and as the perfect God and the perfect man, will hand it up as the act of worship to God which is what Adam should have done in the first place. So, beloved, Christ has not only redeemed us from sin, he is going to redeem the fallen role of humanity and fulfill the role that man was given to have and in perfect obedience, he will hand it over to the Father and the purpose of the human race will be fulfilled in Christ.
What does that have to do with the significance of man? Christ became a member of our race. We share a nature with the one who is going to subdue all things under his feet. It's not just that our sins are forgiven, it's not just that we're going to heaven, we share a nature with Christ and he who shares our nature is going to subdue it all under his feet and that is what gives man his ultimate significance. The Son of God shares our nature and will one day restore to the human race the dignity which God intended. The rebels will be gone by this time, sent away into judgment and just a purified race of humanity, those redeemed by the shed blood of Christ will join together in that great act of worship. We belong to the human race which Christ saw fit to enter into himself. We share a nature with the Son of God, his human nature, not his divine nature. We share a nature with the Son of God and by him coming to earth conferred a dignity on humanity that was greater than anything else that ever could have happened. That's what God did for humanity.
Turn back to Psalm 8. Where does that leave us? Where does that leave us? We see the significance of man in the created order. We see the significance of man in Christ. Where does that leave us? It leaves us right back where we started from. Look at verse 9, "O LORD, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth!" Look, I want you to see this Psalm from the great macro perspective. This Psalm started above the universe. It entered into the splendor of the skies. It came down to earth and spoke to man and spoke to the beasts and even went inside the heart of man in self-reflection and said, "Who am I that I should be a part of this? How should I have any dignity? But, O God, you've made man like this," and so from outside the universe, into the universe, down to earth, down to the creatures, inside the man it goes. Displaying and declaring the glory of God all the way through and then it's not done there, it comes out of man and in Christ reaches into the future of eternity. This is one magnificent Psalm that when it is properly understood causes us to give a depth of worship, to ascribe such magnificent glory to God for the greatness and the splendor and the wonder of his great name.
It's not just, beloved, it's not just that God has put a magnificent display in the heavens above us, although that's very true and that's what started David down this path, it's that he has such magnificent wisdom to conceive of such a plan. He such great power to carry it out. In Christ, he has such condescension to come down and share humanity with us and in the future, all the rebel powers will be subdued. They will be judged. They will be cast aside and Christ will carry the stream of the redeemed behind him into glory where we will ascribe glory to God in an echoing chamber of majesty for all of the unfolding ages of eternity. Where do you find such power and goodness and greatness and wisdom? David and the Holy Spirit speaking through David has proven the point in ways that astonish our feeble little minds.
Look at verse 9, Psalm 8. In light of all that we have seen from the Scriptures, verse 9 and bow with me in prayer as we close.
Lord, no words of ours could be worthy and so we pray simply with the inspired word of God, "O LORD, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth!" We pray through the name of our great Redeemer, Christ Jesus. Amen.

I am a farm-town girl living by the ocean in Santa Barbara, CA. My undergraduate degree in psychology from UCSB gave me a passion for the mind and its curiosities. Living a life-long active lifestyle has led me to investigate the wonders of the human body and its capabilities.
I've earned a Masters in Nutrition and Exercise Physiology from CSULB where I have converged my two interests. Through my academics I have seen the inherent connection of nutrition and exercise when discussing health and wellness. Along the road I have fostered an interest in how DNA implicates our potential for health and/or disease.
Locally, I've worked in the arenas of physical therapy and Pilates as well as having served my community through children's agricultural camps and special needs programs for children and adults alike. I continue to promote nutritional education at local schools as the founding member of Santa Barbara Wellness Outreach.

Today my goal is to simply encourage you in the power you have in prayer! There are many different types of prayer but I just want to focus on helping you see that your prayers are POWERFUL!
I "randomly" flipped open to the book of James this morning where the apostle was speaking on the power of prayer.
Check it out:
16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
17 Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years.
18 Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.
I then flilpped back to the story of Elijah and was just astonished at the way God used this man. He was the only true prophet alive in his day. God did mighty miracles and wonders through him to turn Israel away from their idols and back to Himself.
I feel like there are so many believers right now that are struggling with things they wouldn't have to struggle with if they knew the power they had in prayer.
The sad truth is we just don't believe in the power of prayer. We may say it as a nice little cliché but our actions reveal more unbelief than anything.
But I look at our history in the bible and see POWER as a result of prayer. Not our cultural norms of, "sending you good thoughts" or "your in my prayers hun."
I am sure we really mean well when we say these things but I would love to see us tap into the true power we have in Christ when it comes to prayer.
If we really believe then we would pray with some expectancy.
I look at how Elijah prayed and fire consumed the sacrifice on Mount Carmel. Then as another sign of God he prayed and the rains came after a long drought in the land. I see Jesus praying and then the loaves and fishes multiplying to feed thousands. I see the apostles praying and people getting baptized in the Holy Spirit, blind eyes being opened, and the lame walking.
To me, this is a picture of what prayer looks like. Not a nice little curtiousy we extend to others that offers nothing but temporary comfort.
The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.
This is a huge key to prayer. It doesn't say the prayer of any man but a righteous man.
Often, I have read this and disqualified myself from believing that my prayers were powerful because I knew myself, and my behaviors weren't always righteous. I thought once I was holy enough then my prayers would be powerful.
Little did I know I still had a merit based mindset.
A way of thinking that is anti gospel. It says that we are what we do. Our actions determine our identity.
But the truth is right here:
2 Corinthians 5:21 says, "For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God."
This is the gospel right here.
We have become the righteousness of God because of WHAT HE HAS DONE, not what we have done.
This is great news!
We are righteous and it's not our fault!
This is going to give people some freedom right here because so many have thought their prayers aren't very powerful because they don't have perfect behavior. They just see how much they fail and it renders their prayers powerless.
The truth is you are righteous and your prayers make all the difference.
Every time you pray for your family member things are shifting in the spirit. Every time you go and pray for the sick the Kingdom of God is being released. Every time we declare the will of God over our lives, angels are going forth on our behalf arranging divine appointments. Every time we pray and declare our prophetic words faith and hope fill our souls and pieces of the puzzle begin to fall into place!
So next time you pray for something, believe you are accessing heavens power. Believe that your prayers are making a difference.
This doesn't mean you have to strive in your prayers. You don't have to say alot of words. Just pray in faith! Knowing that because of who you are in Christ, your words are releasing breakthrough.
I know in my life the more I have believe this reality that my prayers are powerful the more I expect something to happen.
I love to release the healing power of God everywhere I go and God has been reminding me that I carry peoples breakthrough. I can be the answer to someones prayer today.
Just yesterday Kaylee and I were at Starbucks and it was like God was just brining the fishies our way.
We were sitting outside and a gentlemen was walking towards us with a huge limp.
I ask him what happened as he walked by and he said that he was hit by a drunk driver!
I thought to myself, "man God can heal this man right now, lets pray! "
So we prayed for him and he instantly felt alot better. He wasn't 100% but much better.
Then another guy came walking by with a brace on his arm. He had an accent but he said he had a small crack in his arm.
We prayed and you could feel the healing presence of God come over him.
He said he felt alot better and walked away!
Come on Jesus!
This is a huge testimony because I remember a time where I didn't believe that I could walk in that kind of power.
But the more I realize my identity in Christ the more I realize my prayers are powerful!
And so are yours!
So I challenge you to engage in some sort of prayer this week. Whether thats releasing healing over someone on the streets, interceding for family or friends, praying over your finances, whatever!
And if you have prayer request go ahead and post it below and we can join with you in prayer!

Regal Up Top, Party on the Bottom! (Plus 2 Style Tips)
NAVY BODYSUIT: by Eva Mendes for New York & Company (ON SALE!! $14.98) | FLORAL WIDE-LEG PANTS: New York & Company 7th Ave. (ON SALE!! $49, Regular $70)| NAVY BOOTIE SANDALS: ShoeDazzle In Ayla (No longer available; options below) | STRIPED BELT: Came on a different pair of pants from NY & Co.; Vintage
There's nothing I love more than to pair an outfit that you typically wouldn't see going together, and this one is it.
Style Tip 1: Pair a different dark color than is in your bottoms and accent/soften the brights.
For example, it looks like there is mostly black in the flowers in these pants, but I'm softening the colors by opting for navy instead. The navy blue brings out the pink and yellow more, whereas black would make them look more harsh and ONLY bring out the black.
Style Tip 2: Mix prints using your belt.
This belt actually came on a previous pair of pants I got from New York & Company. I got the idea to wear it with these pants to see how it looked, and I ended up loving it! You'll notice floral on the belt, too. This just makes it a triple threat belt. You can wear printed belts with solids, stripes, or floral in this situation. It's the perfect SMALL way to mix prints without being overwhelming.
One of my new favorite things is definitely bodysuits, so I just love this combo. :-)
Enjoy shopping the look below.
Also, at the bottom of this post, click "Floral Series" to shop everything on the blog that has floral involved.
Have a great week!

I know what you're thinking: It's been many, many moons since Jennifer Hudson performed at the Super Bowl this year, so why are we rehashing this? One item, dears: that jacket.
The girl looked amazing that night. I wish you could see the whole outfit – complete with skinny jeans (or maybe leggings?) and that drapey top, the jacket was the piece de resistance. Divine.
When I was with two of my girlfriends in Dallas a coupla weeks ago, we fell on a cute version of this jacket at Zara. I couldn't find the exact replica, but here's a similar version from their website.
Then this week over at Lucky Magazine's blog, there was this girl in her vintage cuteness.
Jessica Szohr from Gossip Girl got caught up in the action, too, at a recent event. This one I snapped off my Vogue app on the iPhone.
A more literal (vintage) interpretation from Etsy:
Keep an eye out for one of these, and if you see a cute one, drop me a line here! I think this is one of my favorite trends this year!

The Great adult egg hunt & hoppy hour
The Chattery is hosting the Second Annual Great Adult Egg Hunt & Hoppy Hour on
Sunday, April 28th at 2 p.m. at Sculpture Fields at Montague Park.
This second annual event combines the arts, community collaboration, and of course, education. Through a creative partnership, local artists will create one-of-a-kind works of art on an evergreen wooden egg, and adult participants will search for the eggs at Sculpture Fields.
We'll conclude the event with a restaurant "hop" along Main Street to continue to build community and support local businesses.
Participants are encouraged to wear their Sunday best for added fun.
Cost: $7 pre-sale // $10 day of. Tickets can be purchased at door.
Some Important Notes
Once you find the egg you'll love forever, please check in with The Chattery so we can let the artist know their egg found a forever home.
Once the event is over (around 4pm), we'll be heading down the street to "hop" along Main Street. Use your wristband to get special deals (more details below!)
The Egg Hunt will officially kick off a little after 2pm. The Egg Hunt will include tunes from D J M C P R O, booze from The Bitter Alibi, sweets from No Baked Chattanooga, and lots of fun stuff from Cempa Community Care, Yelp Chattanooga, and Bloodthirsty Vintage.
You only get to keep ONE artist designed, wooden egg. No matter how many you fall in love with, you must only pick one. No one is guaranteed an egg. We'll have candy-filled eggs of course too!

When I became a vegetarian, at the earnest and self-righteous age of ten, the thing I immediately missed the most was roast chicken, but mostly for the gravy and stuffing. As a teenager, I started making vegetarian gravy and stuffing (not that stuffing isn't normally vegetarian but its eponymous cooking method is). The combination of stuffing/gravy/roast vegetables is one of my favourite winter comfort foods, but here's a more interesting alternative.
I bought puff pastry because I'm lazy as heck, but my tip for making it is to freeze the butter you use for half an hour or so, then grate it into the flour. This makes it easier to rub in.
1 large or 2 small kumara, chopped into small cubes
2 carrots, chopped into 1-inch cubes
200 g mushrooms, diced
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
olive oil/butter for cooking
1 can drained, cooked brown lentils
1 onion, finely diced
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups vegetable stock
2 tablespoons Marmite or Vegemite (I'm a Vegemite girl)
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon sage
Roast the kumara and carrots with some olive oil and salt and pepper. Fry the mushrooms and garlic in butter.
Sauté the onion, oregano and sage in the butter at a medium heat, then add the flour and turn the heat down. Stir with a wooden spoon until all combined and the roux (butter and flour mixture) has turned a light brown colour. Slowly add the stock, bit by bit, stirring constantly. Once all mixed in, turn the heat back up to med-high, and add the Marmite or Vegemite. Add some pepper and check the salt levels; add if required. Reduce the gravy over a low heat, stirring often to ensure a skin doesn't develop.
Roll the pastry out and cut it into circles to fit into your muffin tray/pie tins/etc. Cut smaller circles for the tops of the pies.
Mix the gravy and the vegetables together, add the lentils, then spoon into the pie cases. Attach the pie tops and brush the tops with an egg wash of one beaten egg mixed with three tablespoons of water if you have it. Cook at 180 °C for half an hour or so, or until the pastry is golden-brown.

I painted this piece in the wake of Malaysia's 13th General Elections, with the intention of reminding us all that regardless of our differing political views, we are all of the same nationality – Malaysian – and should be cherished.
The tree in this painting is made up of our national flag's four colors, to symbolize the many races of Malaysia as one body growing out of the same, fertile soil. Our lives, like the colors, overlap each other in many areas.
The pink sky symbolizes what we ought to do. We ought to protect our homeland and nation with love. The tree is made up of diverse colors overlapping each other, and we should protect this tree the way it is with love. Unity is diversity.
Finally, I painted our flag's crescent and star on the top right corner childishly, to represent childhood innocence and simplicity. May this painting remind us of our lost innocence, and what being Malaysian meant to us when we were children.
The painting is further marked with my insignia as its artist on the bottom right.
In order to send this message out as widely as possible, I am placing this painting up for auction with 70% of proceeds going to charity of the winning bidder's choice. This means that the winner/buyer gets to choose a charity, and 70% of the painting's price will be channeled to that charity.
Thank you for your vote of support and bid in advance!
– Yvonne Foong. www.yvonnefoong.com
Bidding information:
1. The winner may choose to pay via cash, cheque, TT, or PayPal.
2. The winner may choose to pick it up from me or receive the painting by courier. We will discuss these arrangements once the auction concludes.
3.I will first collect the painting's full price from the winner, before channeling 70% of it to the chosen charity. I will then publicly present the charity's donation receipt as proof that the money has indeed been channeled to them as promised.
