For Erin and Robert, Moriah Pie is an expression of their faith in God and the entire
enterprise is based on trust. The Lockridges
believe that the whole world is given to us
by God, and their work each day is an expression of thanksgiving for the gifts God
has given. The name Moriah Pie comes
from Genesis where Abraham declares,
“You are the God that provides.” This sentiment is at the root of Erin and Robert’s work
as they risk love and trust God to provide
for all that is involved in the restaurant and
their lives. This journey of love and trust
creates a need for others to come and help,
ultimately creating a stronger community.
They trust their customers will pay what
they believe is fair. They trust each other,
their workers, and the community to continue to keep Moriah Pie successful and
beneficial for the entire Norwood community. Erin and Robert spend their energy to
bring food to the table and invite others to
take that risk with them.
“Everyone who walks in the
door is a gift to us because
we are shaped by them”- Erin
