The Final Banquet

From Series: "Food for the Hungry"

Food is essential to life itself; a mainstay of celebrations and memorials; a way to build community or tear it apart. Scripture starts and ends with God providing food, and in between those bookends, people feast and share intimate meals, hoard and withhold food, and dream of a time when everyone has enough to eat. Justice is woven into humanity’s experience of food, and in this season of political upheaval, we will focus on some of those justice issues and ways we can all respond. In some traditions, Lent is a time of fasting. This year, we will welcome the presence of food—learning from stories in the Bible related to meals, examining the justice issues it raises, and making space to share encouragement and support with one another as we eat together.
