Today’s meditation comes from The Book Of Acts in The New Testament and from the writings of Michael Pollan, with music by Outside The Sky.

Passage: “They ate together in each other’s homes, happy to share their food with joyful hearts. They were liked by all the people, and the Lord added to their numbers daily.” —Acts 2:46-47

Perspective: “The shared meal elevates eating from a mechanical process of fueling the body to a ritual of family and community, from the mere animal biology to an act of culture.” ―Michael Pollan

Music: “Hallowed Clearing” by Outside The Sky
