Food Ministry

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. A healthier relationship with food through a stronger relationship with Christ - that's the goal of Full.

Raised as an atheist, Sara Miles lived an enthusiastically secular life as a restaurant cook and a writer. Then early one winter morning, for no earthly reason, she wandered into a church. "I was certainly not interested in becoming a Christian," she writes, "or, as I thought of it rather less politely, a religious nut." But she ate a piece of bread, took a sip of wine, and found herself radically transformed.

Gisela Kreglinger, the daughter of a vintner and trained as theologian, invites us to discover wine as part of a more full-bodied Christian spirituality. She shows us how the soulful savoring of wine is God's way of wooing us back into a great love affair. Indeed, Jesus's first miracle was turning water into wine at a wedding. Along with bread, wine is the gift we receive at the table of communion. Through these gifts we experience God's glorious and loving presence among us, feeding and nurturing us in body, soul, and spirit.

We long for a deeper experience of God’s presence, but it’s hard. Our minds wander and prayer becomes...well...boring. Lost in Prayer is more than a devotional.

More than just a daily listening, the questions will stimulate your thoughts to enable you to think deeply. And the prayer prompts will keep your conversation with God moving in fresh, intriguing ways.

As she journeyed through life, Edith became dissatisfied with her relationship with Jesus. She felt there had to be more than she was experiencing. So, she cried out for more.

This audiobook was taken from her journal of discovering Him. These thoughts will help other hungry pilgrims making the journey.

Are the unclean food laws strictly for the Jews? Did Isaiah 66 err in stating that those eating unclean foods will be destroyed at the second coming? If Jesus sanctioned eating unclean foods during His ministry, why did Peter refuse to eat it during his vision in Acts 10? Is unclean food the only abomination from the Old Testament that is now allowed today? Did the physiological makeup of the pig's one stomach change at Calvary?

Many people in the 21st century have tried some kind of diet. In fact, the list of recommended diets seems endless and confusing. In the midst of this confusion, wouldn't it be great if you could speak with God and have him design a diet just for you? Have you wondered what kind of diet God would recommend? This diet would not just be focused on weight loss, but rather a diet for optimal health. Have you ever wondered what kind of diet Jesus followed? Now you can stop wondering!
