Come and Be Filled: Feasting with Jesus in His Word - Paperback

by Kristopher R. Whitby (Author)

Discover how shared meals--both ordinary and extraordinary--reveal the heart of God's grace, turning every table into a sacred celebration.

From backyard gatherings to family tables and Sunday communion, meals have always been more than simple nourishment. Come and Be Filled explores how the shared table runs through salvation history, revealing the deep connection between eating together and the Christian life. Drawing on Scripture and tradition, this book shows how meals shape our faith, cultivate forgiveness, and form authentic fellowship.

Meals you'll encounter:

• The "meal of death" in Eden that shatters humanity--and the first promise of a Savior
• The Passover lamb, bitter herbs, and unleavened bread that mark Israel's rescue and foreshadow Christ
• The covenant feast on Sinai, where leaders eat and drink in the presence of God
• The widow of Zarephath's last cake of bread--and the table where flour, oil, and a dead son are restored
• And several others

Written for everyday Christians and rich enough for Bible study groups, this book nourishes both mind and heart.
