Tack för maten!Bordsbönen kan vid en första anblick verka obetydlig. Men en enkel bordsbön kan i längden hjälpa oss att se på våra kroppar, på naturen och på våra bordsgrannar med mer tacksamhet och ödmjukhet. Den kan påminna oss om att inte ta livet, maten och varandra för givna. Bordsbönen är som en hemlig skatt. Gode Gud välsigna maten, amen innehåller: - Över 60 bordsböner för olika tillfällen, både klassiska och nyskrivna, för vuxna och för barn, vissa tonsatta och andra illustrerade. - Festfixarknep, fakta, samtalstips för barnen, vännerna eller gästerna, roliga bordslekar och mycket mer. - Fördjupande texter om ämnen kopplade till bordsbön, som tacksamhet, tillit och jämlikhet. Tankar kring frågor som: Ska vi be bordsbön när vi har besök? Hur gör vi när vi äter på restaurang? Vad har egentligen bordsbönen för funktion om måltider mest är förknippade med ångest eller konflikter? Medverkande: Johanna Gustavsson, bokscout och litteraturvetare, Joel Halldorf, docent i kyrkohistoria samt kultur- och ledarskribent, Esther Kazen, pastor och generalsekreterare för Sveriges ekumeniska kvinnoråd, Anne Lamott, amerikansk författare och talare, Kristian Lundberg, författare och litteraturkritiker, Lina Mattebo, journalist, skribent och redaktör, Åsa Molin, teol kand, lärare och författare, John Sjögren, kulturskribent, litteraturkritiker och författare och Norman Wirzba, brittisk professor i teologi, ekologi och lantliv samt låtskrivare, bönskrivare och illustratör Josephine Flatebö.

Distinct practices of eating are at the heart of many of the world''s faith traditions -- from the Christian Eucharist to Muslim customs of fasting during Ramadan to the vegetarianism and asceticism practiced by some followers of Hinduism and Buddhism. What we eat, how we eat, and whom we eat with can express our core values and religious devotion more clearly than verbal piety.

In this wide-ranging collection, eminent scholars, theologians, activists, and lay farmers illuminate how religious beliefs influence and are influenced by the values and practices of sustainable agriculture. Together, they analyze a multitude of agricultural practices for their contributions to healthy, ethical living and environmental justice. Throughout, the contributors address current critical issues, including global trade agreements, indigenous rights to land and seed, and the effects of postcolonialism on farming and industry. Covering indigenous, Buddhist, Hindu, Christian, Muslim, and Jewish perspectives, this groundbreaking volume makes a significant contribution to the study of ethics and agriculture.

God is reconciling all things in heaven and on earth.We are alienated not only from one another, but also from the land that sustains us. Our ecosystems are increasingly damaged, and human bodies are likewise degraded. Most of us have little understanding of how our energy is derived or our food is produced, and many of our current industrialized practices are both unhealthy for our bodies and unsustainable for the planet.Agriculturalist Fred Bahnson and theologian Norman Wirzba declare that in Christ, God reconciles all bodies into a peaceful, life-promoting relationship with one another. Because human beings are incarnated in material, bodily existence, we are necessarily interdependent with plants and animals, land and sea, heaven and earth. The good news is that redemption is cosmic, with implications for agriculture and ecology, from farm to dinner table.Bahnson and Wirzba describe communities that model cooperative practices of relational life, with local food production, eucharistic eating and delight in God's provision.Reconciling with the land is a rich framework for a new way of life. Read this book to start down the path to restoring shalom and experiencing Jesus' kingdom of shared abundance, where neighbors are fed and all receive enough.
