Christian Capitalist Podcast With Rich Sanders Baked with Faith: Michele Pavlich on Covenant Cookies, Mustard Seeds & Stepping Out in Purpose   In this sweet and Spirit-filled conversation, host Rich Sanders sits down with Michele Pavlich, founder of Covenant Cookie Creations, to explore the divine inspiration behind her faith-based cookie business. From growing up in Elyria, Ohio to living a military family life that spanned Alaska to Florida, Michele shares how her calling was born not just out of nostalgia—but out of prayer, fasting, and deep spiritual alignment. With stories of her late sister, her father, and her transformative 21-day fast, Michele weaves together faith, service, small business, and spiritual discipline into a powerful testimony. Each cookie she bakes takes three days—intentionally mirroring the resurrection—and each one is prayed over as a vessel for God's mustard seed. Her story is a reminder that your work can be your worship, and even a cookie can carry the gospel.   In This Episode: • 01:00 How a Bottle of Sand Led Michele's Family to Destin, Florida • 05:30 Military Life, Family Moves & a 40-Year Love Story • 10:00 The Pink Cookie That Inspired a Business—and a Ministry • 16:00 Starting Covenant Cookie Creations on Her Wedding Anniversary • 20:00 Why Every Cookie Is Prayed Over and Takes Three Days to Make • 26:30 The Power of Small Group, Fasting, and a Mustard Seed • 32:00 Personalized Cookies, Packaging Options & Balloon Deliveries • 40:00 Big Opportunities: The Pensacola Air Show + Wedding Orders • 47:00 Volunteering, Cooking for Church & Giving as a Christian Capitalist • 53:00 The Reflection: A Poetic, Powerful Vision of Who We're Made to Be     Quotes: • "Each cookie takes three days—and I'll never rush the cookie.
