The Other Journalthe Food and Flourishing Issue

Synopsis:Issue #19 of The Other Journal examines our complex relationships with food from a theological bent. The thoughtful contributors to this issue take us to Middle Earth and the Romanian city of Constanta. They swing by swank Manhattan bistros and raucous NFL stadiums on game-day. But most importantly, they return us to the communion table and to that first garden where God walked with us and gave us the gift of his creation. The issue features essays by Elizabeth L. Antus, Peter M. Candler Jr., William T. Cavanaugh, Matthew Dickerson, David Grumett, Ryan Harper, Chelle Stearns, Stephen H. Webb, and David Williams; interviews by Daniel Bowman Jr., Heather Smith Stringer, and Jon Tschanz with John Leax, Lee Price, and Norman Wirzba; and creative writing, poetry, and art by Chris Anderson, B. L. Gentry, John Leax, Katherine Lo, Robert Hill Long, Lee Price, and Alissa Wilkinson.
