Despite loads of "Biblical diets", Christian detoxes, pressures from the pulpit to be "disciplined" with food, and snooty comments in the church buffet line about the contents of your plate, the New Testament does not actually promote rigidly controlled eating habits or thinness as the ideal body type. In fact, Paul has some strong words for food morality - "doctrines of demons" anyone? There are a few popular verses and Biblical concepts that Christians pull out of context to support restrictive eating and keep diet culture strong in the church. In this episode, we go through each one and see what God has to say to us about food, body size and appearance!
