1. The January/February Issue of “The Peaceable Table” Is Now Online

Contents include:

  • In the Glimpse of the Peaceable Table we hear the story of a young leopard and a cow who showed impressive tenderness toward one another.
  • Must we choose between accepting the Christmas story as sacred and regarding it as a parable of God's word for us today? The Editor's Corner Essay shows reasons why both are valid.
  • One of the NewsNotes shows how far the sales of cow's milk have declined in the US.
  • "Blessed are the Merciful" tells of the wonderful Christmas gift that a rescue dog gave to an elderly bereaved man.
  • In a Letter and a Poem, reader Lisa Kay Adam tells of a strong intuition she once had that God is a river.
  • Our Pioneer for the Jan-Feb. issue is the remarkable Henry S. Salt, a British reformer of the 19th and 20th centuries who worked for compassionate justice for animals and other beings.
  • The redoubtable (and funny) Michael Greger, M.D. is the author of How Not to Diet, a big book packed with scientifically-grounded information about diet, Reviewed by Robert Ellwood.
  • This month's Recipe, by Jane Esselstyn, is for the best red lentil soup you've never tasted--yet. Wait till you try it! Modified and contributed by Nancy Campeau.
