## Resource

InterVarsity Alumna Jessie Thomas had no idea that her love for food and hospitality would open so many doors: personal chef, cooking on local television, hanging out with Cookie Monster (to name a few). But nothing compared to her experience as a crew member on the Food Network's reality cooking series Chopped . During their marathon recording sessions each day, Jessie got to work alongside hurt and anxious people; people who became lifelong friends and who experienced the love of Jesus. All because Jessie made room at the table and provided a listening ear. Enjoy Jessie's story!
