The idiom comes from the idea of a literal ship with tight ropes. This expression alludes to a ship with taught (tight) ropes and well caulked seams. In other words, everything on the ship, down to the smallest details, is orderly and controlled.

Thanks for coming back to join me for Faith on the Menu this week!

Today we'll talk about failure and how to fail well (both from a biblical perspective), and I'll share a couple of old songs with you for inspiration. :) We'll also have our Weekly Manna segment with 1 Corinthians 10:13 being our focus.

On this first episode of the podcast, we'll revisit some content from the initial episode which launched in October 2022. We'll talk about who you are bringing to the table--what is the mindset that you currently have toward health, diet, balance and discipline. We'll have our first Weekly Manna portion, talking about a scripture passage we can commit to memory during the week to help us in our journey.
