Food and Faith Class

Sacrament Church has invited Brush Hill to join them as they host a class entitled Food and Faith. Here is a short description of the class:

Food is one of the most basic and necessary ways that we can love God, love ourselves, and love our neighbors as ourselves. The Eucharist invites us into abundant life as followers of Christ… that we would “taste and see that the Lord is good.” This class explores the intersection of faithful eating, our Nashville food system, and falling in love with the land we live on as a part of our discipleship.

In this class, we will learn and eat together, hear compelling stories of good work being done, and tour farms. With the challenges of land in Middle Tennessee being quickly developed for housing and commercial interests as well as rising farming input expenses, Middle Tennessee farmers need support as they care for the land and grow nutritious food that supports the local food system. Additionally, food insecurity and food justice issues are pervasive in Nashville.

The class will be held each Sunday in September at 1:30pm.
