"Grace is Christianity's best gift to the world, a spiritual nova in our midst exerting a force stronger than vengeance, stronger than racism, stronger than hate. Sadly, to a world desperate for this grace the church sometimes presents one more form of ungrace. Too often we more resemble the grim folks who gather to eat boiled bread than those who have just partaken of Babette's feast."
Philip Yancey

What an amazing quote - that must be why I paired Babette's Feast with this book as a gift for my family.
Oh Anj, what a great pairing! I have been thinking of watching Babette's Feast again to try and absorb more of the essence of how she carried life. I think it is the blue print of what my new business is about.
