“Full: Food, Jesus, and the Battle for Satisfaction” by Asheritah Ciuciu
If you have ever struggled with food fixation or food addictions (including sugar) and would like biblical ideas and support; you will really like this book.
The author begins by explaining that this is not a diet book or healthy eating plan. It’s a book about “why we seek fullness in something that will never satisfy…We need the sanctification that comes by the power of the Spirit. That’s the only solution that leads to lasting change and creates in us the transformation that pleases God”.
At the end of every chapter there is a “Digest the Truth” which can be used for individual or group questions; along with bonus content found on the authors website.
In this book she talks about 10 lies about food, discovering your triggers, fasting, and celebrating the gift of food; to name a few.
At the very back of the book she has included a food-fixation assessment along with 20 verses to overcome food fixation.
“It is possible to break the cycle of a lifetime of dieting or calorie counting or preoccupation with food or even an outright addiction. This book will hopefully give you the encouragement and hope to start your own journey and to find FULLNESS in the word of God.
I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.
About the Book
Can the Bible help me with my food struggles?
Have you ever felt stuck in a seemingly endless cycle of overeating, yo-yo dieting, and obsessive thoughts about food?
Whether you feel defeated by your lack of self-control or overwhelmed by thoughts and longings for food, the answer to our food fixation does not lie in the $500 billion global diet industry.
This is not a diet book and it’s not a healthy eating plan. Because at the core, our problem is not really what we eat. It’s why we seek fullness in something that will never satisfy.
Join Asheritah Ciuciu as she shares honestly about her own battles with food and reveals the path to freedom. You’ll discover the joy of living free from food fixation so you can experience deeper satisfaction in Christ, gain a renewed sense of purpose, and yes, even enjoy good food (without regret).
A healthier relationship with food through a stronger relationship with Christ—that’s the goal of Full.
Includes a quiz to help you find out if you have food fixation, plus practical strategies for overcoming it.
