Tasting Grace: How Food Invites Us Into Deeper Connection with God, One Another, and Ourselves


Melissa d'Arabian - 2019
    She set out on a journey to get "back on track" with God when it came to eating and how she felt about herself. She laid food, exercise, and body image issues squarely at God's door and dove headfirst into His grace. As she prayed, read, studied Scripture, and listened she saw the invitations from God in the stories of her life. Melissa realized that food is not an afterthought for God--it is central in so many key biblical moments and invites us into His creation. Likewise, food is at the forefront of our society, as a topic of conversation and in our daily routines. Filled with heart-rending, hilarious, and eye-opening stories and anecdotes, Melissa shows us how food fuels far more than our bodies; it drives ministry and celebration, and connects us to one another and to God himself.
