To The Table Quotes

“God created a universe that would come into its fullness, infusing all that was needed with the spoken Word, with a seed that is coming into fullness yet. If the universe is still expanding, might that also mean that the fullness of earth is yet to be realized, yet to be complete in every particular way, to become all that is possible?
If one imagines creation beginning with a seed that God planted, then a large pumpkin seed or a tiny carrot seed is more than a metaphor. It is God at work, still.”
― Lisa Graham McMinn, To The Table: A Spirituality of Food, Farming, and the Community
