What do the fields, rivers, and streams that provide food have to
do with the God who created them? How do we become at home in this
world where so many hunger for food, for companionship, or for the
presence of God? "Scripture is also a feast." As an invitation to
feast at the table of God's word, The Hunger for Home explores the
deepest human longings for home through the simple ingredients of
bread, water, wine, and stories. Matthew Croasmun and Miroslav Volf
read the meals of the Gospel of Luke as stories of God eating with
God's people. By making a common home with us in this way, God
turns all our meals into invitations to eat in God's home-a home
with a seat open for all who are willing. No longer is bread simply
fuel for getting through the day, but also a call to be present to
the agricultural workers, grocers, chefs, friends, and strangers
with whom food connects us: everyone God is calling to the banquet.
As Croasmun and Volf show, Luke gives us an image of creation at
home by bringing God into the home, as it was always meant to be.
