#GoodtasteWithTanji #TanjiPatton #TexasEats #WineFinds #FoodieLife #GoodtasteTV- When life feels uncertain, fear creeps in, or the future looks nothing like we expected, where do we find the courage to keep going? In this episode, we sit down with New York Times bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado to talk about his book Unbreakable Courage and how the biblical story of Elijah offers a powerful, timeless lesson in facing life's challenges with faith and trust in God.
Fascinating to see how Elija's struggles are as relevant now as they were thousands of years ago. Our lives may look different on the outside, and our circumstances may vary, but deep down, we share many of the same internal battles—fear, doubt, uncertainty, and the challenge of trusting God when we can't see what lies ahead.
Max reminds us that faith doesn't mean we never struggle. It means learning to trust God in the middle of those struggles, knowing we don't have to face them alone.

This isn’t an easy conversation, but after hearing stories recently that truly touched my heart, I felt compelled to explore a side of abortion we don’t talk about nearly enough.
We’re not here to debate whether abortion is right or wrong. We’re asking a different question: What happens next?
What emotions surface? What questions linger? And what happens when the experience brings unexpected feelings, struggles, or questions that are difficult to share?
Whether you’re a woman or a man, abortion may have touched your life—or the life of someone you love—in ways you never expected.
Today, we’re making space for the stories that often go unheard, the questions people may be afraid to ask, and the experiences that can be difficult to put into words.
Most importantly, this conversation is about hope. Because no matter what someone has experienced, help is available, healing is possible, and no one has to walk that journey alone.

#GoodtasteWithTanji #TanjiPatton #TexasEats #WineFinds #FoodieLife #GoodtasteTV Now Serving Houston's Best-Kept Secret: Chef's Table | Tanji Patton's Goodtaste for the Soul
10/13/2026 | 27 mins.If you haven’t been to Chef’s Table in Houston, you’ll want to add it to your must-do list! This award-winning restaurant, known for its bold South African flavors and creative cuisine, has just opened a second location in River Oaks.
I’ve always had a soft spot for Chef’s Table — the food is exceptional, and executive chef Paul Friedman is a one-of-a-kind talent. His creativity has earned him plenty of accolades, but what has always impressed me most is the man behind the food. Paul has a big heart, an incredible drive and a determination to succeed that’s hard to miss. There’s a soulful side to him that makes his story just as interesting as his food.
I recently spent an afternoon with Paul at his new River Oaks location, tasting some incredible dishes and talking about the journey that brought him here. I think you’ll enjoy getting to know this talented chef as much as I did!
