New Series: How to Renew Your Mind So You Can Actually Change

One of the comments I get most often is this: “I’ve been a Christian for years… why am I still struggling with this?” Have you ever asked that question? If so, you’re not alone!

Maybe there’s a habit you can’t seem to break. Or an emotion that keeps showing up — anxiety, anger, insecurity, envy, sadness. You want to change, but you’re not sure how. Or maybe you already know how to renew your mind,

Quotes by Barb Raveling (?)

“The best way to break free from entitlement eating is to adopt a biblical perspective of life. God never said, “You deserve the good life, and of course you have a right to eat.” Instead, He said, “If you want to follow me, you have to be willing to give up everything.”

“God has a reason for not giving us the quick fix: He wants us to be conformed to His image and He uses trials to help us grow. Weight loss is one of those trials. It’s not fun, but God can do great things in our lives if we persevere and keep going to Him for help.”

“Lifelong boundaries in the area of food make our lives better because they keep us safe. Yes, they cramp our style, but you know what? Our style needs to be cramped because there are consequences to eating what we want when we want.”
