Thinking Intentionally About Food. . .

This semester our Campus Bible Study is asking the question: How can we put our faith into action?

For the last few weeks, we've been thinking intentionally about Food Justice. How do people have access to food in our nation and in our city? What is it like to live on Food Stamps? What is it like to be a farmer, and how can we support food that is grown locally? How does the production of food affect our environment? Workers? Animals?

Join us every Monday night at 7:00pm in the Youth Room to study scripture and think through relevant questions!

What have you enjoyed about our Bible Study this semester? And have you learned anything interesting about food?


"I've really enjoyed exploring real, concrete ways to live out my faith in the world. And having time to discuss these issues with smart, spiritually hungry people!




I've also learned about 'veggie libel laws,' which can evidently be used in a lot of ways that protect food companies but tend to restrict some people's freedom of speech."

-Merrit Martin




"I've learned that corn is everywhere and in almost everything. It's kinda scary!"

-Catherine Faig






"Our Bible Study has certainly become more proactive than any other time I can remember. I think it's great that not only are we learning, but are called to action.

It's complicated to truly know where food is coming from, but our 'vote' to buy foods that we believe in helps change the habits of food producers and distributors. Also healthy food changes the way we feel and perform."

-Marco Gutierrez

"I enjoy Bible Study because everybody can talk about deep, spiritual, and sometimes controversial issues without having to feel judged or ignored or disrespected, and I like how the things we talk about are always applicable to our lives.

I learned that nearly everything in some way or another involves corn in its production!"

-Lauren Thomas


Please join us on Monday, March 1st for our final week devoted to Food Justice!
