This book fills that gap. Viewing wine as a gift of God's created bounty and as a special symbol used pervasively throughout Scripture, Kreglinger canvasses the history of wine in the church, particularly its use in the Lord's Supper, discusses the fascinating process of winemaking, and considers both the health benefits of wine and the dangers of alcohol abuse. Offering a vision of the Christian life that sees God in all things - including the work of a vintner and the enjoyment of a well crafted glass of wine UR - http://public.eblib.com/choice/publicfullrecord.aspx?p=4859094 UR - http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=1239540 UR - https://www.overdrive.com/search?q=AFAAA401-DE67-40F8-94BB-D9CDF2E5F708 UR - http://public.ebookcentral.proquest.com/choice/publicfullrecord.aspx?p=4859094 UR - http://samples.overdrive.com/?crid=afaaa401-de67-40f8-94bb-d9cdf2e5f708&.epub-sample.overdrive.com UR - http://images.contentreserve.com/ImageType-100/4233-1/{AFAAA401-DE67-40F8-94BB-D9CDF2E5F708}Img100.jpg ER -
