Eat with Joy: Redeeming God's Gift of Food by Norman Wirzba, Rachel Marie Stone

sarah_reading_party's review against another edition

3.0

a very quick read, but one that redefines food and the food culture in the west for Christians. what was most compelling to me was the author's encouragement for believers to redeem food- to share with others, not to better themselves (i.e. by eating organic and local and all that jazz... even though there certainly are benefits to that). i liked the idea of simplifying meals as a sign of solidarity with others globally in food crisis too.
