Taste and See

Last night was the women's event at mission a supper entitled 'Taste & See'. Another great night as we chatted, ate, made truffles, listened to live music and heard from God's word that Jesus is the only one who truly satisfies.

As usual for a women's event, we had lots of yummy food for supper:


The Upper Chapter House was completely transformed:


And making truffles was lots of fun:





Some went for the perfectly rolled ball, while others opted for the more 'rustic' look:


And to cap the whole night off, Naomi clearly explained to us from John 6 that it is only in Jesus that we can find the food that will sustain for all eternity. Here she is, mid-flight:


It was a great night!

  • At the risk of sounding critical, is there a limit to the extent to which Christians ought to participate in the consumptive culture in which they live in order to get a Gospel opportunity. Just noting the elaborate nature of food consumption in recent posts.

  • aMaybe I'm just being defensive because I'm tired ...

    BUT

    While I agree with the sentiment of what you are saying, I don't think it is a fair criticism of the past week. We did have lots of evangelistic meetings over dinner, where the food was good, but good food and excessive consumption are not necessarily connected! Did not Jesus eat with tax collectors and sinners as he shared the good news with them?
