Book Description
Soul food has played a critical role in preserving Black history, community, and culinary genius. It is also a response to--and marker of--centuries of food injustice. Given the harm that our food production system inflicts upon Black people, what should soul food look like today? Christopher Carter's answer to that question merges a history of Black American foodways with a Christian ethical response to food injustice. Carter reveals how racism and colonialism have long steered the development of US food policy. The very food we grow, distribute, and eat disproportionately harms Black people specifically and people of color among the global poor in general. Carter reflects on how people of color can eat in a way that reflects their cultural identities while remaining true to the principles of compassion, love, justice, and solidarity with the marginalized. Both a timely mediation and a call to action, The Spirit of Soul Food places today's Black foodways at the crossroads of food justice and Christian practice.

Book Description
When Joyce White moved to New York City from Alabama, she left small-town life behind and landed ajob as a food editor at a major women's magazine. Weekends, however, found her visiting churches in Harlem and Bedford-Stuyvestant, looking for a taste of home. Food has long been a part of the spiritual life of African-American churches, and what she found there, along with what she missed from home, was the comforting blend of cooking and fellowship that feeds both the body and soul. In this warm and joyful collection, White offers more than 150 recipes for the foods that worshipers look forward to after services, and she captures the spirit of these sociable meals with warm, conversational and occasionally poignant reflections from African-American churchgoers around the United States. "We don't just come to church service and leave," says a retired nurse who directs hospitality for a large church in Los Angeles. "Many of us stay here half the day. That way we get a chance to rub shoulders and see what is going on or going wrong with each other." From delicious renditions of classics such as Sugar-Crusted Biscuits to updated favorites such as Black Beans with Sun-Dried Tomatoes, as well as special fare for entertaining and Kwaanza, the pages of Soul Food are alive with the spirit and love of African-American churches -- and the terrific food to be found there.

Book Description
"The Second Vatican Council called the Bible 'the food of the soul.' Yet, for many Catholics, their engagement with Scripture is often limited to what they hear at Mass--and the dull, safe, predictable homilies that obscure rather than break open up the Word of God. In Food for the Soul, a riveting three-part series, celebrated philosopher Peter Kreeft invites the faithful—clergy and laity alike—to a heart-to-heart relationship with Christ the Word through the Word of the Scriptures." --

Book Description
I was inspired to write this book due to my love for cooking and my mother, who always had me to help her with the everyday meals. It was nine children at home. I had six sisters, but my mother always wanted me to help and learn how to prepare the meals. I guess my mother taught me well because whenever there was a cookout or a holiday dinner, my family always liked my corn bread dressing and potato salad. Above other things, I can't forget the lasagna. It's simply the best you will ever taste. My mother was the best cook there was; she taught me very well. I believe that this book of all my recipes would be really helpful to my sisters. Friends would call and ask me for my recipes, and I would assist them to pick up some of my good recipes. They are really excited over my writing this soul food cookbook. I believe that soul food is good for you and fills you up fast. My cooking and dishes never need you to add salt or anything. They are simply delicious and good. I have three grown kids now, and my daughter cooks very well. She got some of my recipes before she left home, and I can't forget my husband. They say a away to a man's heart is through his stomach, and he's always happy when I'm in the kitchen because he just loves my cooking. You know what they say about the country girls--they are some of the best soul food cookers. I guess I would have to say that I love to cook and entertain my guests and serve them my best recipes, so I would like for them to have a copy of this cookbook for their keepsake. This would make my family very happy.Every recipe in this book is very special to me. I am really proud to have taken the time to write this book, and at the end of each recipe, I said, "Eat and enjoy."
