Breaking Bread with Kendall Vanderslice

Listeners, you are in for a special treat today as we get to know author and food theologist Kendall Vanderslice by her shelf. In today’s episode, I get the opportunity to chat with Kendall about what food theology is and how she shares it with other through her business, Edible Theology, as well as how God draws her by her stomach, her complicated relationship to bread, and how rituals of fasting and feasting work together for those who observe them. You’re also going to want to hear how Kendall was incentivized to read through prizes and the two books you could read to get to know Kendall better. Kendall’s new book, By Bread Alone: A Baker's Reflections on Hunger, Longing, and the Goodness of God, releases today, February 28, 2023. If you enjoy this conversation and want to hear more, grab a copy of this beautiful book.
