Bible Study
I love the story of the Manna from Heaven. The people are experiencing a liminal space (a space between). They are hungry.

This means “What is it?” Moses said to them, “It is the bread the LORD has given you to eat. This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Each of you is to gather as much as you need for a day’s food. . . ‘“
