Sunday Dinners

Thirteen of America’s favorite pastors and their families share their Sunday traditions, mealtime blessings, inspiring stories, and favorite recipes.

Foreword by Victoria Osteen

Research shows that eating dinner together strengthens a family’s bond, and Sunday dinners are especially sacred. They are a time to bring everyone together, catch up, teach children manners and social skills, stay connected with teens, learn about family history and values, and nourish our bodies and souls.

In Sunday Dinners, the pastor families who share their experiences are known not just for their successes in the pulpit and in their communities but also for the strong families they have built. They preach it, and they live it, and that’s inspiring. This is a cookbook to be read and savored, to remind us that no matter how busy we think we are, we can still take time to come together, break bread, and connect with family and good friends.

“Sunday Dinners adds a fillip of celebrity: It highlights thirteen megachurch preachers (and their spouses who often do the cooking) including Bishop T.D. and Serita Jakes who duel for the most decadent banana pudding.” —The Washington Post



“Collectively, the families in Sunday Dinners are ambassadors for great food, strong families and deep faith.” —The State
