his is a Train-the-Trainer workshop for congregations that want to use the Just Eating? Practicing Our Faith at the Table curriculum in their congregations.
Just Eating? is a 7-session curriculum for Christian congregations exploring the links between the way we eat and the way we live. Scripture, prayer, and stories from our local and global community are woven together to explore four key aspects of our relationship with food: the health of our bodies; the challenge of hunger; the health of the earth that provides our food; and the ways we use food to extend hospitality and enrich relationships.
