Summary

On today's episode, Lindsey Maestas talks about gluttony. Many of us don't think that we struggle with this, but gluttony is the most tolerated sin in the United States. If we’re honest with ourselves, most of us have a dysfunctional or unhealthy relationship with food - whether that is over-indulging, emotionally eating, or punishing ourselves by withholding food.

She shares the importance of fasting from food as a form of worship, rather than a form of weight loss, and talks about why this spiritual self-discipline can change your relationship with food.

She gives practical tips and biblical verses to help you overcome your battle with food as a Christian.
