Breaking the Yoke - The Biblical Beginning...and End to Our Struggle with Food

Book excerpt: Millions of people feel as though they've lost (or are struggling with) the battle with food and their weight. And no wonder! Obesity is on the rise, yet through popular cooking programs, talk shows, tempting commercials and convenience foods, the entire food industry encourages us to mindlessly munch and expand. Is there any way to break the yoke that weighs us down? Absolutely! Discover what happens when you turn to Christ, instead of the fridge, to save you from oyur troubles. Step out of Hell's kitchen and follow the blessed, fragrant aromas of hope that lead to God's kitchen! This unique study focuses on biblical precepts that offer Christ-centered guidelines for physical and spiritual sustenance. Each lesson contains a food-focused Bible study segment, daily devotional, and theme-related recipe. Author Toni Perry is an award-winning Bible study teacher, food educator, inspirational speaker, and founder of God's Kitchen Ministries.
