You may have heard that our global food production system is deeply flawed. You’re right. In fact, it’s probably worse than you imagine. Fortunately, there’s hope. It is possible for us to vote with our forks for better practices that respect our health and the health of the planet. To begin voting for a better way, we need to increase our knowledge about food and food practices. We need to improve our shopping and cooking skills. And, most importantly, we need to change our attitudes toward food, health, healing, and nutrition. Once we have opened our minds to a new, healthy way of approaching food, and have started removing unhealthy foods and habits from our everyday lives, we will have entered a culinary world bursting with magnificent smells, tastes, sights, sounds, and feelings that will bring joy to both our mouths and our stomachs. Yet such changes will require more than a bit of effort. This book is not a feel-good-quick-fix-magic-solution-pop-a-pill-latest-food-fad-I-have-the- only-solution diet. It is a long-term, sustainable challenge to a big problem: what to eat in our world today. It is an attempt to reintroduce a culture of thinking and effort back into eating, one based on diligently stewarding the body and world God has entrusted to us. In the spirit of renewing the mind, it is a lifestyle book that seeks to reimagine what we eat within an integrated spirit, mind, and body framework (Rom. 12:2; 1 Thess. 5:23).
