It means restoring a good relationship between humanity and its ecological home, stirring the heart,
setting about work in a spirit
of thanksgiving, discovering power under the authority
of the Spirit, confronting evil with confidence in the sovereignty
of God and sharing in the generous economy
of God so that nothing is wasted.
What
sets the food apart from any other meal is that I will make one or two things more than a normal dinner party, and
of course the turkey (because who actually roasts a turkey except for on
thanksgiving), and that is it.
