This podcast is geared towards Orthodox and non-Orthodox Christians looking to break free from the distractions of dieting by rooting the pursuit of a healthy body and healthy soul in the person of Jesus Christ and the teachings of the Orthodox Church. We explore the heights and depths of eating, how to approach the fasting and feasting seasons of the Church with a proper spirit, and how to allow food to nourish and sustain us so that we can do what we are called to do.
