Fasting and Feasting

Gordon Giles

From The Church Times - January 2009

Gordon Giles reminds us in Fasting and Feasting that Lent is a season of learning as well as self-denial, 'so that when Easter Day comes we are not only purer but more knowledgeable about the faith we profess and celebrate'. He offers a 46-course banquet from the Old and New Testaments in this substantial and often entertaining book about food and drink in life and faith. There is a helpful section on Lent activities and group material.
