Ep 20. From Restriction to Redemption | The Sour Wine, the Sponge, & the Weight of His Glory

In this episode, I continue the conversation from last week by sharing why being at my heaviest weight has also meant being at my healthiest-spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically. I unpack how restrictive dieting and disordered eating once kept me trapped, and how Jesus called me out of diet culture and into freedom. Then, we turn to the powerful image of the sponge at the crucifixion, exploring its historical context, prophetic links to Passover, and how even the sour wine points us to the finished work of Christ. Together we’ll see how the enemy wants to keep us focused on our bodies and our weight, but how Jesus invites us to shift our gaze to His body, broken for us, and to the greater weight of His glory.
