Abstract

Farms in the United States produce food sufficient for every person, yet millions of people are hungry and food-insecure. The Bible consistently affirms God’s provision and humanity’s abundance in Jesus Christ. There is enough grown, but reported numbers reflect a reality in which many people do not have enough healthy food to eat. Gleaning, a concept from the Hebrew scriptures, can be part of a connecting web that brings people together to harvest, share healthy food, reduce food waste, and build caring communities by offering nourishment to hungry neighbors. Christians are called to ensure that all are fed and that there is not just enough to feed everyone, but an abundance.
