Honoring My Temple
Daily Devotionals for Changing Your Eating Habits With God at the Center
Most eating advice starts with a rule. This starts with God.
A daily devotional for Christian women who want to change how they eat without handing their peace over to one more diet.
Why this book
You already know what to eat.
For most of us the problem was never information. We can all name the foods that serve us and the ones that do not. We have read the plans and started them on a Monday.
The harder truth is that eating is rarely only about food. It is tied to comfort, to stress, to control, to the end of a long day when you want something that feels like a reward. A plan does not touch any of that.
Your body is not a project to fix. It is a temple to steward.
Honoring My Temple treats how you eat as part of your walk with God rather than a test of willpower. Not a diet, and not a list of forbidden foods, but a daily practice of bringing this ordinary, stubborn part of life to the One who made your body in the first place.
"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God?" - 1 Corinthians 6:19
Inside the book
A few minutes a day, before the day gets away from you.
Short enough to read with your coffee. Honest enough to change what you reach for by dinner.
A daily devotional
One reading at a time, grounded in Scripture rather than in the latest nutrition philosophy.
Questions worth sitting with
The kind that get underneath the habit to the reason for it, so the change has somewhere to hold.
Bringing food to God
Not asking for willpower. Asking for the heart change that makes willpower less necessary.
One thing to carry into the day
Small and specific, so it survives a busy week instead of collapsing on the first hard one.
Part of the SoulStrength Fit Daily Devotionals, written for individual reading or for a small group working through it together.

If any of this sounds familiar.
- —You have started over more times than you would like to count, and you are tired of the starting.

- —You have a rich prayer life in most areas and have never once thought to bring food into it.
- —You want the change to last past January, and you suspect that means it has to go deeper than a meal plan.
