Hi, and welcome to Jesus Over Everything, a short practical podcast that mixes encouragement,

the Bible, how-toes, and fantastic interviews for the listener on the go. I'm Lisa Whittle,

and I welcome you to just a few minutes with me, which I trust and pray will be time well spent.

Well, it's the first day of our permanent priority shift series. If you didn't listen to our show

on Monday, go back and do that.

I kicked off the details of what we're doing for the next six weeks, not only on this

podcast, but as a community of folks who have said we wanted to make a permanent priority shift.

Today's show is week one, that process, on detoxing. And whether or not you're formally taking place in the six weeks

to a permanent priority shift, this is an important show for anyone who says, yeah, I need or want

to put Jesus first, but it's really hard for me. You know, that is a whole lot of us, I think.

The book, Jesus Over Everything that I wrote is all about that priority order that works

for our life to help uncomplicated. And I think a lot of us have had our eyes open recently to the

ways that our life has become complicated because he has not been in that number one spot. And now is

the time to change that. Today we're going to talk about what often happens first in that process of reordering

because anytime you go through a process of ridding yourself of any habit, whatever that may be,

there is a time of intense detoxing right at first.

A lot of us are right there, having started the process this week or maybe even before.

Hang in there.

I've got some encouragement for your soul.

So detoxing.

When our bodies are screaming and raging against things we love and have gotten used to being now withheld from us. Oh my,

I have had so many conversations with folks right after we got quarantined with the pandemic.
