Gary Stevenson is the visionary behind Theo’s Feast, an immersive culinary ministry that inspires meaningful conversations through a collection of creative, edible metaphors.

Over his 24-year journey with Power to Change, he has served both in Nicaragua and at Simon Fraser University (SFU) in Vancouver, building impactful outreach initiatives.

​

The inspiration for Theo’s Feast came one summer in 2003 as Gary was planking a salmon on his backyard BBQ. He felt a calling to explore how food could convey the rich metaphors of Scripture, sparking a journey that has led to the creation of over 90 original recipes and eight themed feasts, each crafted to illuminate complex spiritual concepts and foster profound conversations.

​

Theo’s Feast has hosted events in number of cities including Vancouver, Toronto, and Orlando, cultivating a vibrant community where guests connect deeply over a shared table.

 

Gary and his wife, Lynda, have been married for over 20 years and have three children. In addition to ministry, Gary is passionate about music and motorcycles, embodying an adventurous and creative spirit in all he does.
