Guardians of the Galaxy is an expanding movie franchise that initially hit the screen in 2014.

In these movies, a team with would-be, semi-impressive superpowers join together to become guardians of the galaxy.

Isaiah and Jesus both provide clues about what/who is the real Guardian of the Galaxy:

This Protector is the ruler of everything, the omni-potentate of innumerable universes filled with galaxies we cannot see, and is more powerful, fearsome and wise than we can imagine. And, based on today's text, this Guardian is holy -- more holy than we can imagine -- and just: justice you see, is essential for holiness.

From Abraham and King David to John F. Kennedy and George W. Bush, the influence of families has been seen and felt in the shaping of generations of leaders.

It looks like a burger. Cooks like a burger. Tastes like a burger. And even "bleeds" like a burger. But, there is no beef in it.

This burger is made from a plant-based beef alternative, with juices that come from beet juice. The burger is produced by a company called Beyond Meat.
