Everyday Food and Faith explores the problem of overeating and how faith can provide assistance. This exploration is accompanied by ancient wisdom from the books of Psalms and Proverbs. The author also offers observations about her experiences with food that helped her to normalize her own eating patterns.
Everyday Food and Faith is for anyone who is weary of the commonplace battle with overeating. Is there a way to get out of the trenches and rise above the problem? Conventional wisdom tells us to take control, motivate, apply willpower, and self-monitor. Religious wisdom, however, offers something that is far more reliable.
Everyday Food and Faith was previously published as Transcending the Everyday Temptations of Overeating by Vicki Arkens. It was revised under the new title in 2023.
