A Table Set for All Nations: Food, Faith, and the Theology of Cultural Diversity
In A Table Set for All Nations, theologian and cultural commentator Vincent Froom takes readers on a journey to the intersection of theology, cuisine, and cultural diversity, revealing how food serves as a profound metaphor for unity, reconciliation, and God’s global mission.
