- Christianity
Intuitive Eating for Christian Women // We’re here to help you discover whole health for your mind, body and soul. Embody scripture, ditch dieting, and live on purpose.
What is Body Idolatry? Have I made health or body image an idol in my life? How do I know if I have an idol?
In Episode 3 we tackle the tough topic of idolatry and show you how asking yourself some hard questions and really examining your own heart is the first and most important step you’re going to take on your Intuitive Eating Journey with Jesus.
In this episode we dig into:
The definition of idolatry
A fresh way to look at idolatry to make it relevant to your own life
Reflection questions to give yourself a heart check for idols
How even good things can be hidden idols
Why you don't have to choose between health and faith, but you do have to choose what is in first place in your heart
3 ways we react when someone shows us our idolatry
What we can do if we realize we have a body idol (or any type of idol!)
How self examination and the choice to put God first is a daily practice
How there is no shame or condemnation for idolatry, but grace waiting for us when we recognize the idol and return to the Lord
Why chasing an idol will never satisfy you
Encouragement to seek God first every day
