In today's busy world, we all crave something deeper and truer. Whether we're seeking relationships that go beyond the surface or gatherings that allow for joy and pain, Bri McKoy reminds us that all we need is a table, open hearts, and a simple invitation: come and eat.

Join Bri as she invites you to discover how a common dining room table can be transformed into a place where brokenness falls away to reveal peace and fellowship. Whether your table is laid with bounty or meager offerings, surrounded by the Body of Christ or homeless, broken souls, she shows us that healing begins when we open our hearts and homes.

Throughout the pages of Come and Eat, Bri gives you the tools and encouragement you need to:

  • Learn to look more intently at the tables God is preparing before you
  • Come to the table with your brokenness, your celebration, and your worries
  • Create a warm and welcoming environment
  • Chock full of recipes, timeless tips, and thoughtful questions for discussion, Come and Eat reminds us that fellowship in God's love is always the most remembered, most cherished nourishment. Because when we make room for others, we make room for God, and our homes become vibrant sources of life, just as he means them to be.

    Praise for Come and Eat:

    "A coveted place at Bri's table also means she has made a loving space for you in her heart. In this book, with unbound generosity, Bri shares both table and heart with all of us."

    —Joy Wilson, bestselling author of Joy the Baker's Over Easy

    "Bri takes the best of life—neighbors, good food, the hope of Christ—and cooks it down into an invitation to reach for the solace of community. I'll be holding on to Come and Eat, both for the go-to recipes and for the reminder that God's love for me is a feast best shared with those around me."

    —Shannan Martin, author of Falling Free: Rescued from the Life I Always Wanted

        Practical tips fill McKoy’s gracious debut, an ode to food and spiritual community. McKoy, the founder of the food blog Our Savory Life and leader of the Christian mission-oriented blogging network Compassion International, expresses a deep desire to live out a Christian faith with integrity and purpose. Upbeat chapters rotate among stories, recipes, table prayers, and questions for discussion, all of which will inspire readers to bring these practices into their daily lives. This work will especially appeal to readers who are eager to make mealtime an opportunity to dig deeper into their Christian faith and to share food and faith with others. Making the table a welcoming space rather than just a platform for food is a thread that runs through anecdotes and recipes; readers looking for comment or direction on food choice as an act of faith will be disappointed. Cheerful and big-hearted, McKoy’s book reminds readers of the power in the act of sharing food.

        Everyone eats, and most people have a table in their home. The problem is that we often don't associate our tables with God's work, yet inviting others to share in our bounty can be seen as a Christian act. As Diana Batarseh narrates this magnificent call to hospitality, she adds a tone of understanding and learned lessons, suggesting she has adopted this work as her own. The sadness and joy in her voice accentuate the listening experience. Her voice shines as the author fondly recalls the trials and errors that led to intimate sharing and genuine fellowship, and she slows her tempo to a crawl when reading how the author learned of the horrors of sex trafficking, all from sharing a meal. Nonetheless, the listener remains aware of the hope underlying every meal, making this an excellent audio resource. T.D. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine
