Description
Summary:In this response to Joseph Lear, Tommy Casarez praises Lear’s use of the phrase, ‘anti-eucharist’, and his claim that we live in an anti-eucharist culture, or something akin to Madonna’s material world. Noting the significance of food and common meals in Scripture, Casarez points out that Ruth is not only and not primarily a recipient but also a contributor. Lear is commended for his description of a space-making ethic, with the eucharist serving as a space-making event that essentially defines the shape and character of the Christian way of life.
