Quotes by Norman Wirzba (?)

“Food is a gift of God given to all creatures for the purposes of life’s nurture, sharing, and celebration. When it is done in the name of God, eating is the earthly realization of God’s eternal communion-building love.”
― Norman Wirzba, Food and Faith: A Theology of Eating

“Whenever we make an idol of anything, we presuppose that it has the power to give life. We confuse something given by God as a means of life with its being the source and fulfillment of life. False worship is so dangerous because it witnesses to human attention and energy being directed in ways that are bound to lead to mutual harm.”
― Norman Wirzba, From Nature to Creation (The Church and Postmodern Culture): A Christian Vision for Understanding and Loving Our World

“Fasting, in its most fundamental aspiration, is about developing a sacrificial, self-offering life that addresses and nurtures the needs of others.”
― Norman Wirzba, Food and Faith: A Theology of Eating
