Wine in the Word Bible Study Guide plus Streaming Video: Why God Gave Us the Gift of Wine
About this ebook
Gisela brings her perspective as a scholar who was raised in a vintner's family, and Randy brings his perspective as a pastor who was raised in a teetotaling home. They remind us that wine is a gift from God and that we are to receive it with gratitude and enjoy it in wholesome, communal, and redemptive ways.
While not shying away from concerns surrounding the challenges of alcohol abuse, they both promote a culture of healing from such disorders and recover a vision for how wine and food welcome us into a fullbodied understanding of the gospel as we await the return of the Bridegroom, Jesus Christ.
