"The practice of the Christian life consists of the discernment of, and reliance upon, and the celebration
of the presence of the Word of God in the common life of the world." William Stringfellow

By Bread with Gusto

In the midst of all the heavy stuff, here is a reminder that life and bread and sensual gusto and faith are all wonderfully intertwined. Nan Mein, a wise historian, knitter, and all around gusto sort of person, brought this to my attention. She is a better theologian than most of us so when she refers to a text, a book, a poem or in this case a video, we need to attend!

Here it is: THE BREAD PROFESSOR.




Professor Steven Kaplan teaches history at Cornell. Here is an article from the Washington Post about him. Nan was once in the Chaplaincy at Cornell and I suspect there is a story there.

This guy is wondeful, and so is the bread.
