This work explores how food and eating function culturally today; argues that our eating practices can make us more attentive to our life purposes, more attuned to our community identity and more aware of the presence of God; considers the important role food and fasting have in the Christian tradition; and, includes a chapter on The Lord's Supper as a model for eating, and the Eucharist (the act of communion) as an occasion for sharing with the worldwide family of God.
L Shannon Jung is Professor of Town and Country Ministry at St Paul School of Theology in Kansas City, USA. His books include Discovering Hope and Food For Life.
