Made To Crave...God Not Food!


I know I have talked about this before, but it's time for me to reconnect with this study.  Last winter I co-led a Bible Study based on this book and starting January 15, I will be starting the study again, following an online Bible study, as my life if quite busy this winter and this is the most convenient way for me to participate in a Bible Study and still stay accountable.  I would love to have you join me in this 6-week study.  You can find out more about it on this website.  Made to Crave is an amazing book that helps us see how God understands our struggle with food, and wants to meet us in our struggle and free us from it.  Remember Eve?  The first recorded sin involves food!  Your struggle is not something new for God.  Another great resource is Lysa TerKeurst's website.  She is the author of the book.

Maybe reading it through a second time will make it stick a little more.  I may have to read it through 20 times to fully "get" it through my thick sinful head.  I do agree with Lysa TerKeurst that my struggle with food is really a struggle with trusting God and not letting the devil have control over my life.  You may not see your struggle in that way, and I have all respect for that.  But as for me, this way of looking at my struggle with food is so helpful.  Let me know if you want to join me, I would love to have local support on this journey as well as the support of the online community.

  1. Oh, I should. I learned a lot the first time through, but haven't really applied any of it. I'll think about it- thanks Tiffany.
