Nana's Gift: A Recipe for Mind, Body, and Spirit

Sharing life and connecting around the dinner table can be among the most empowering of all family activities. It’s where traditions and values are passed down from generation to generation and where good, nourishing food for both body and soul is made even better by the company with whom it is shared. It is around the table that wisdom is passed along as a legacy of love.

Nana’s Gift: A Recipe for Mind, Body, and Spirit is one family’s treasure chest filled with Christ-centered life lessons intended to be topical conversation starters between teenagers and their parents and/or grandparents. Let it become a centerpiece at your own table to promote conversations of lasting impact. The author intermingles her own family history, insights, faith, and favorite family recipes as a legacy to her grandchildren. The pearls she shares and “Table Talk” questions provided are meant to be catalysts for strengthening your own family relationships and building upon your own family legacy. The clock is ticking. We don’t have forever with our young ones. Now is the time to come to the table. . .and talk!
