Food Justice and Hospitality in Luke-Acts
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This marvelous book challenges us to see the familiar in Luke-Acts in a life-changing way. What happens if we interpret ‘the poor,’ as those who are starving? What happens when we honor dishonorable, destitute persons by inviting them to our banquets? What happens to our traditional Christology when we highlight Jesus who reveals himself as stranger, guest, host, and servant at the table of life? Let’s apply Luke’s meal Christology to contemporary crises such as food insecurity in India.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This well-informed book brilliantly illumines the thematic of wealth and poverty in Luke-Acts. Dr. Pilgrim challenges Christians of all denominations to probe the contemporary meaning of following Jesus, the preacher of Good News to the poor.”
