Scripture

Servant Leadership
Biblical Servant Leadership
Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, 27and whoever wants to be first must be your slave— just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (Matthew 20:25-28)

The greatest will be your servant
“But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have only one Master and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called ‘teacher,’ for you have one Teacher, the Christ. The greatest among you will be your servant. For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted. (Matthew 23”8-12)

Jesus Washes His Disciples’ Feet
It was just before the Passover Feast. Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love
The evening meal was being served, and the devil had already prompted Judas Iscariot, son of Simon, to betray Jesus. Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”
Jesus replied, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.”
“No,” said Peter, “you shall never wash my feet.”
Jesus answered, “Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.”
“Then, Lord,” Simon Peter replied, “not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!”
Jesus answered, “A person who has had a bath needs only to wash his feet; his whole body is clean. And you are clean, though not every one of you.” For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said not every one was clean.
When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned to his place. “Do you understand what I have done for you?” he asked them. “You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that is what I am. Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them. (John 13: 1-17)

Following Jesus
“Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.” (Matthew 4:19)

Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it. (Matthew 16:24-25)

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6)
The heart, head, hands, and habits
Heart
Above all else, guard your heart,
for it is the wellspring of life. (Proverbs 4:23)

All a man’s ways seem right to him,
but the LORD weighs the heart. (Proverbs 21:2)

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ (Mark 12:30)

Head
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. (Romans 12:2)

Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:
Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,
but made himself nothing,
taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
and became obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
(Philippians 2: 5-8)

Hands
And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. (Colossians 3:17)

What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. (James 2:14-17)

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. (James 1:27)

Habits
Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.
But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers. (Psalm 1:1-3)

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus (I Thessalonians 5:16-18)

Information

1)ChenaFresh (Alaska) America’s northernmost commercial year-round
greenhouse at Chena Hot Springs Resort.
Chena Hot Springs Resort produces on-site hydroponic lettuce, tomatoes, herbs,
fodder (animal feed), and small fruits for the restaurant, employee meals
and livestock. More than 500 heads of lettuce a week, and annually
25,000 lbs of tomatoes, 275 tons of fodder, and 400 lbs of zucchini is produced
in the 6000 ft2 year-round controlled environment geothermally heated
greenhouse, 2178 ft2 high tunnel, and 192 ft2 fodder system.
Alaska’s dynamic weather provides unique climatic
challenges for any greenhouse operation. Short
summers offer long days (16-22 hours) of natural
light without a night period. Meanwhile, the
winter requires 100% crop lighting October till
March with minimal effective natural light.

2)DISCUSSION > Alaska’s Food Security and Sustainability Problems
An outstanding opportunity exists today for us to be the leaders on the ground who will provide solutions to our communiy’s future in food chain sustainability.

Our current food supply systems do not meet the challenge of providing food security and sustainability to our state.
Records indicate only 1.3% of the annual dollars spent feeding our families come from locally grown product from Alaska.

By increasing our local food production we can provide all Alaskans the following:
* Improve health
* Increase local food security (not being dependent on nutrition from 2,500 + miles away.)
* Strengthen our economy from the “Farm to the Table” with new jobs in agriculture, processing facilities and marketing.
* Reduce prices of local produce over time
Not only does our commitment need to focus on the overall market place, but it is important that families reconnect with where their food comes from. By viewing the ground you own(rent) maximizing your space for meeting your needs, you too can make a difference. Community gardens and co-ops are also vital for those less fortunate who are in need of quality food high in nutritional content, but are not able to afford “Living food.”

3)What is hydroponics?
The word, Hydroponic, comes from Latin and means working water. Simply put, it is the art of growing plants without soil.

4)http://www.bchydroponics.com/historyofhydroponics.html
History of Hydroponics
The history of hydroponics dates back to ancient times. The term “hydroponics” comes from two Greek words: “Hydro,” which means water and “ponos,” which means labor.
Together, the two terms mean “working water.” The practice refers to methods of growing plants with nutrient solutions. It implies a form of agriculture which does not utilize soil.
There are two ways through which soil-free plant growth is achieved. The first is through the use of a mineral nutrient solution only. The second includes a medium other than soil to offer support for the root system. Such mediums include gravel, mineral wool, and perlite.
These practices have developed greatly in recent history. This is a result of better understanding of plant needs as well as growing technology. Although the practice is now in vogue, the history of hydroponics is thought to extend back to Ancient Egypt.
Of course, a lot of the records dated back to such times are not viewed as reliable. However, experiments related to plant nutrition are known to have been undertaken by Theophrastus. This was a successor of Aristotle who lived from 372 to 287 B.C.
The earliest published work related to soil-free plant cultivation is attributed to Sir Francis Bacon. This was the book Sylva Sylvarum, published in 1627. This was a major influence on the growing popularity of water culture.
It was from the mid to late 1800s that the possibilities of mineral nutrient solutions were first studied. The use of such solutions quickly became a standard in the history of hydroponics. In fact, it is still widely used today.

5) http://www.growingedge.com/basics/tutorial/01_history.html
History of Hydroponics
Hydroponics basically means working water (“hydro” means “water” and “ponos” means “labor”). Many different civilizations have utilized hydroponic growing techniques throughout history. As noted in Hydroponic Food Production (Fifth Edition, Woodbridge Press, 1997, page 23) by Howard M. Resh: “The hanging gardens of Babylon, the floating gardens of the Aztecs of Mexico and those of the Chinese are examples of ‘Hydroponic’ culture. Egyptian hieroglyphic records dating back several hundred years B.C. describe the growing of plants in water.” Hydroponics is hardly a new method of growing plants. However, giant strides have been made over the years in this innovative area of agriculture.
Throughout the last century, scientists and horticulturists experimented with different methods of hydroponics. One of the potential applications of hydroponics that drove research was for growing fresh produce in nonarable areas of the world. It is a simple fact that some people cannot grow in the soil in their area (if there is even any soil at all). This application of hydroponics was tested during World War II. Troops stationed on nonarable islands in the Pacific were supplied with fresh produce grown in locally established hydroponic systems. Later in the century, hydroponics was integrated into the space program. As NASA considered the practicalities of locating a society on another plant or the Earth’s moon, hydroponics easily fit into their sustainability plans. This research is ongoing.
But by the 1970s, it wasn’t just scientists and analysts who were involved in hydroponics. Traditional farmers and eager hobbyists began to be attracted to the virtues of hydroponic growing. A few of the positive aspects of hydroponics include:
• The ability to produce higher yields than traditional, soil-based agriculture
• Allowing food to be grown and consumed in areas of the world that cannot support crops in the soil
• Eliminating the need for massive pesticide use (considering most pests live in the soil), effectively making our air, water, soil, and food cleaner
