Spiritual Release From Food Bondage

Book Cover & Preview Text
How do you quiet the voices in your mind? Jonah's little whale adventure is a great example of this concept. He was commissioned to warn the populace of Nineveh of the coming judgement. One of the voices in his mind was the fear of how the people of Nineveh would respond to him. That voice is fear of man. Fear of man means that you are more concerned with what others think of you than what God thinks of you. How about the voices in our world that tell you how to look, what to wear and how gracefully you should be aging. When you believe you have to meet this standard it's a form of idolatry and fear of man.
As you know, the Lord caused a whale to swallow Jonah, where he stayed in it's belly for 3 days and 3 nights. Jonah couldn't hear outside input and I bet there was no fear of man in the whale. I also bet that Jonah wasn't wondering if his hips looked big in his tunic while he sat in that putrid smell wondering if he would ever see daylight again. I am sure he wasn't thinking about how flat his stomach would look when he had gone 3 days or more without eating.
His only concern was survival and coming to a place of true repentance before his God.

This book offers a step-by-step approach to tearing down the spiritual and emotional strongholds that have been developing over a lifetime to give the reader freedom in the area of food bondage. As the reader works through this book chapter by chapter, he or she will begin to ask themselves, “Can it really be this easy?” When the Holy Spirit is your partner, the answer is, “Absolutely, a resounding Yes!” The author hopes that many will be released from the bondage of having their days focused on food and weight loss to walking in freedom forever.
