Today, Roberta talks to Rebecca Corwin about her new book Arise and Eat!: How God Reveals Himself through Food, available from Christian Faith publishers.Everyone eats. In one form or another, regardless of circumstance, we all need food. We spend much of our time procuring, preparing, and consuming it because it satisfies our hunger, provides necessary nutrients, or simply because it tastes good. It also is fun to share with others. Because food plays such a central role in our lives, God often uses it to reveal Himself to us. He uses it to remind us that only He can truly satisfy our deep spiritual hunger. He also uses it to remind us that He is near, and He longs to share sweet fellowship with us. Using a range of foods from grains to greens, milk to meat, and sweets to seasonings, God reaches down into our kitchens, cultures, and customs to show us who He is. When we are weary and discouraged, He reveals His strength and encouragement. When we are full of joy, He joins us in celebration. Throughout our daily lives, He uses food to reveal His hope, His love, His mercy, and the new, abundant spiritual life that can be ours through faith in His Son Jesus Christ. God invites us to walk with Him in His garden and to join Him at His table. He invites us to arise and eat! Arise and Eat! is a fascinating journey from ancient roasting pits to modern ovens, exploring God's biblical revelation of Himself through food. Using the Bible as its primary source, along with historical insight, scientific evidence, personal experience, and a good dose of humor, Arise and Eat! is for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of how an extraordinary God reveals Himself in the ordinary stuff of our everyday lives.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.
