Taste and See Bible Study Guide: Discovering God Among Butchers, Bakers, and Fresh Food Makers
You're invited on a delectable pilgrimage to discover the secret to savoring every day.
The Psalmist declared, "Taste and see that the Lord is good" (Ps 34:8), so Margaret Feinberg, one of America's most beloved Bible teachers, took the invitation literally.
She embarked on a culinary and spiritual adventure that took her far and descending 410 feet into a salt mine, baking fresh matzo at Yale University, harvesting olives off the Croatian coast, and tasting succulent figs at a premier farm--all to discover the truth of God’s goodness.
With each person she encountered, she asked, "How do you read the Scripture in light of what you do every day?"
Their answers will change the way you read the Bible forever... and the way you approach every meal.
"This is a journey that changed my life, my faith, my future," she writes. "It moved me from fear and uncertainty to discover a renewed, vibrant faith again--and I believe it will do the same for you."
With her delightful curiosity and humor, you'll learn
• Overcome awkwardness and nurture deeper connections around any table .
• Rise above uncertainty , knowing what seeds God has planted in you.
• Learn how you were uniquely created to help others flourish.
• Unlock the satisfying and fruitful life you've been created for.
• Last, but not least, you’ll learn how to make some delicious meals along the way!
Join Margaret in this deeply nourishing six-week video Bible study sprinkled with step-by-step recipes and biblical insights. After all, it's at the table where we learn to taste and see the goodness of God.

♡♡♡♡♡ Margaret's books have been on my radar since I first found FIGHT BACK WITH JOY, so it was a no-brainer for me to purchase and read TASTE AND SEE by her. And, again, I have not been disappointed. Margaret does her research, yes, AND she loves Jesus, AND she loves the Word of God.
I love her heart. I am now underlining every mention of any and all foods in the Bible and digging deeper into what God says about foods!!!
One thing that stood out the most for me was when Margaret told us about something from te Talmud: "if someone is suffering and in need, and you can take away 1/60 of their pain, then that is goodness, and the call to help is from God" (114).

I'm enjoying this book; our ladies' group is doing a Bible study using this book. Many interesting things are being brought out through the video that we are watching to go along with it. I would like to point out that it is necessary to also buy Margaret Feinberg's book "Taste and See" in order to get the most out of the study. This is my only disappointment (I was not in a position to buy the book when we began the study, and did not realize that it was necessary).

Excellent Bible study, really good in a group setting. I can see how this study can be healing and life changing for many ... refreshing, insightful look at food and God's heart for each of us to taste and see His goodness each day
