Among the Pots and Pans: Connect with God, Love Your Neighbor, and Nourish Your Community Through the Art of Cooking

Part cookbook, part theology, Among the Pots and Pans celebrates the connection between food and faith in the Bible and explores how cooking can be used not only to nourish our bodies but also to feed our souls and build community.

As God’s plan for redemption exquisitely unfolds throughout the Bible, you’ll notice that food plays in important role in the scriptural narrative. From Eden to Egypt to Jesus’s many meals with his followers, and ultimately to the wedding feast that awaits all believers, food has always been a central part of God’s story.

Pastor and cooking enthusiast Alex Early invites you to experience God anew as you cook memorable meals for friends, family, and fellow seekers. This unique cookbook contains over fifty recipes from Alex along with rich, spiritual insights on how food can help extend Christ’s love to others and live in greater gratitude and wholeness.

Join Alex for delicious meals and plenty of food for thought on the holy work in the kitchen.
