unTapped Topic: Toward a Theology of Food


Does God care what we had for dinner last night?

Every major religion in the world has dietary restrictions. Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, and even some Christians have restrictions on food and drink. But does God really care?

How much of a role does your spirituality play in your dietary choices? Do you make ethical decisions about food - where it comes from, who it affects, what scripture(s) says about it?

Join us at Shorts this Thursday night for a conversation about food and faith. We meet at 7pm. Pull up a chair, grab some food and a drink (if you're allowed!), and join our discussion.



OPtional Cheat Video:
Our topic this week comes from Rev. Andrew Pomerville's sermon series on food within the context of church. You can get an interesting Christian perspective here:

unTapped

In order to live man must believe in that for which he lives.
- Huston Smith
unTapped is a conversation about faith and spirituality. There are many people frustrated by being forced to think of faith in the same old patterns, and would prefer to explore spirituality in different ways.

Anything goes here. No matter where you are or who you are, we want to hear from you. Feel free to join in the conversation!

You can also join us in person, every Thursday night at Short's Brewing Company in Downtown Bellaire, MI.
