Synopsis

How can one's diet be a witness? How did the early church define fasting? How might one practice Christian vegetarianism? Stephen H. Webb addresses these and other questions in Good Eating. Without a hint of moral superiority, Webb advocates cultivating a biblical view of animals and practicing compassionate stewardship of them. He develops the "first modern systematic theology of diet," touching on topics such as animal sacrifices, the Lord's supper, pacifism, and the place for animals in heaven. Because we make eating-related choices every day, this timely and original study will be of interest to all Christians seeking to practice a conscious faith in daily life. It holds particular appeal for animal lovers, animal rights activists, vegetarians, those who struggle with dieting and weight loss, and anyone interested in ethics, Christian witness, and socially conscientious discipleship. Good Eating is the first entry in Brazos Press's The Christian Practice of Everyday Life series. Series editors are David S. Cunningham and Williiam T. Cavanaugh.
