To Drink or Not To Drink: Growing Up Pentecostal Artwork

Calibama Talking with Chef Lorious

Welcome to Calibama Talking with Chef Lorious. Calibama Talking is a weekly podcast hosted by Chef Lorious (everybody’s auntie) and her mom, Mama VJ (the community grandma). Born in California and raised by a close-knit family anchored in southern tradition from Alabama, this “Calibama” girl learned very early that food cooked with love has the power to inspire and heal. Food opens the door to conversation and that’s exactly what Chef Lorious and Mama VJ do best...talk about everything. No subject is off limits, from favorite foods and table talk, to the latest family antics. The ladies also have guests and talk about the stuff that makes life interesting, like getting past hurts, making major life decisions, figuring out who you are and what you believe (not what your mama believes), and how to break-up with a friend (or whatever)! And in case you’re wondering, these ladies don’t see eye to eye on a lot of things. Come on into the Love Lab (Chef Lorious’s kitchen), for real talk and honest discussions about food, family and this thing called life.

To Drink or Not To Drink: Growing Up Pentecostal

September 01, 2020 • Chef Lorious • Season 1 • Episode 1

On this episode of Calibama Talking Mama VJ and I are discussing whether it’s ok for Christians to drink alcohol. I grew up very Pentecostal Holiness, so for most of my life the answer has been “NO”. But today, we tackle the subject and have a respectful conversation about it.

Some Biblical principals and scriptures were discussed. Here’s the reference for them in case you want to read more.

1) The Corinthian church’s abuse of communion. (1 Corinthians 11:17-22)

2) Paul became all things to all people. (1 Corinthians 9:19-23)

3) Moderation. (Ephesians 5:18)

4) Self control and gluttony. (Titus 1:8)
