Biblical Eating

Scripture begins, climaxes, and ends at the table. From the first command about food in Eden to the wedding feast of the Lamb, eating is one of the central practices God uses to form a people. These seven studies trace what the Bible actually says, what changed at the cross, and how Christians across history have applied it to daily life.
