May 23 – 4th Wednesday – “Food and Feasts of the Bible”
Researching the topic must have been fascinating for John Katterhenry, who by vocation is a chef. As John shared with us, “Once I began researching this project I found more than enough information to fill an entire semester. Besides getting hungrier and hungrier, I made some great discoveries of how food was not only used for sustenance but also was a very common metaphoric tool used for teaching the ideas. Perhaps the best example of this would be in the Lord’s Prayer, “Give us this day our Daily Bread.” A slide presentation accompanied John’s talk on “Foods and Feasts of the Bible.”
