The Food, Health and Ecological Well-Being Program at Wake Forest University’s School of Divinity equips religious leaders with the knowledge, skills, and pastoral habits necessary to guide congregations and other faith-based organizations into creating more redemptive food systems—where God’s shalom becomes visible for a hungry world. Led by author and teacher Fred Bahnson, the Program offers inspiring continuing education classes, courses within the Masters of Divinity program, and the Re:Generate Fellowship.
