Susceptible to Light by Chelan Harkin
Food, Farming, and Faith looks at agricultural sustainability and Christianity. Using scripture and science, Gary W. Fick--a Christian agricultural scientist--demonstrates that faith can inform decisions about creating, managing, even consuming our food. The book highlights such topics as food and celebration, environmental care, ecology and faith, soil and water stewardship, animal welfare, and the impact of poverty on women and our food supply. Throughout, Fick presents and discusses biblical passages that comment on these areas and provides insight from personal experiences growing up in a ranching family, in teaching sustainable agriculture, and as a scientist. Ultimately, Fick challenges the reader to think about eating more thoughtfully so that we have good food, a healthy environment, and a comfortable lifestyle all at the same time.
Harkin, Chelan: - Chelan has always had a close connection with the spiritual world, a loving, ecstatic and expressive spirit, and an intimacy in her soul that she longs to share with others and the whole world. Poetry is one of her favorite, most satisfying ways to accomplish this. Her process with poetry is very special to her. All of these poems have come through essentially intact and entire in less than two minutes with little to no content editing. Chelan believes they are luminous morsels of remembrance from the spiritual world to help her on her way and to share with others. One of the gifts of this poetry is the deconstructing of old ideas of God that haven't served us in hopes of a warmer, closer, more authentic relationship with the divine and with our inmost hearts.
