MAITLAND, Fla., Oct. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- In his new book, Cooking with Scripture: Studying the Bible from a Culinary Perspective ($18.49, paperback, 9781626979062; $9.99, e-book, 9781626979079) Steven Bushnell reiterates that God's Word stands relevant today and still has the ability to touch everyday lives, directly. The 'Bible Chef,' as he is dubbed, takes Scripture and innovatively combines it with food—including the history behind a dish in the Bible and delicious recipes.

"This is a new and exciting approach to the Bible, which can be used by an individual or a group," states the author. "This is an easy book to read that puts you in touch with God's Word... The Lord God has a message for you and he wants you to apply it in your everyday life."

Steven 'Bible Chef' Bushnell received his degree in Christian counseling and eventually became the counselor of his local church. An adult Sunday school teacher was needed, so he filled that position, as well. Bushnell has taught the Bible for more than twenty years. The author adds, "Issues of food often arose and it seemed only natural to add them to the study. Soon the entire program was centered on the food of the Bible, and from there, a ministry began to grow."
