    21/03/2025 | 2 min
    In this special episode of Taste for Truth, I want to share an update and invite you to continue this journey with me over at the Christian Habits podcast, where I talk about breaking free from overeating, habits, procrastination, and growing in our relationship with God. I'm so grateful for all the guests who have shared their stories here, and if you're new, I recommend starting with the episode "How to Break Free from an Overeating Stronghold or a Skinny Stronghold." While Taste for Truth will remain available as a resource, I'm excited to offer new online courses at barbraveling.com/course and hope to see you over at my other podcast for ongoing encouragement and support.

    1:34 - Future Plans for Online Courses
    1:54 - Closing Thoughts and Encouragement

    Episode Summary
    In this episode, I take a moment to share some updates with my listeners regarding my ongoing journey with the Taste for Truth podcast and the new direction it's taking. While I have cherished the time spent discussing topics related to overeating and emotional eating, I want everyone to know that I am also actively podcasting at the Christian Habits podcast. This platform has allowed me to expand my discussions beyond eating habits, exploring various aspects of life including how to break free from negative emotions, procrastination, and strengthening our relationship with God. Each of these areas plays a crucial role in addressing the struggles associated with emotional eating, and I aim to provide listeners with the tools they need to honor God in their eating habits.
    I want to express my sincere gratitude to all the guests who have joined me on the Taste for Truth podcast. The vulnerability displayed during our coaching and victory interviews has been a profound experience, and hearing from authors and coaches has enriched our discussions significantly. It's been a pleasure to connect and share insights with everyone about the challenges of overeating, and I hope to continue providing valuable content that resonates with our audience.
    For those who are new to the podcast, I recommend starting with my recent episode, "How to Break Free from an Overeating Stronghold or a Skinny Stronghold." In this episode, I summarize my key recommendations on overcoming overeating, which I believe will serve as a solid foundation for anyone seeking help in this area. Additionally, I encourage listeners to explore the previous episodes and interviews for more in-depth discussions and insights that can guide them in their journeys.
    Looking forward, I am excited to announce that I will be transitioning toward online courses that will further delve into subjects like emotional eating and renewing the mind. For anyone interested in these upcoming resources, I invite you to visit barbraveling.com/course for more information. As I reflect on the experiences shared through this podcast, I remain hopeful and prayerful for all of you as we navigate our paths and seek guidance from God in our lives.

    How to Break Free from an Overeating Stronghold and a Skinny Stronghold

    19/03/2025 | 37 min
    Many of us have struggled with food for years—turning to it for comfort, relief, or even a sense of control. Others have battled with the pressure of being "skinny," believing that achieving a certain body shape will bring happiness. But what if true freedom lies not in food or body image but in shifting our perspective and relying on God? In this episode of the Taste for Truth podcast, we'll explore how to break free from these strongholds and embrace a healthier, more fulfilling life.
    What We Discussed on the Podcast
    The difference between biblical strongholds, which were places of refuge, and the spiritual strongholds of overeating or having a skinny idol that keep us in bondage
    How to weaken our strongholds by renewing our minds
    Why it's important to set boundaries around food, and then renew our mind whenever we break them
    What fuels a "skinny stronghold" and how to break free
    How praying for others and loving others well can help break insecurity about our appearance
    Why we need to develop a habit of going to God for refuge
    Key Bible verses: Colossians 3:12-15 to show notes and 1 Corinthians 13

    08/02/2025 | 45 min
    Do you struggle to make yourself renew your mind or set boundaries? Have you had a difficult trauma in your life that has caused you to gain weight? Do you ever feel like you need to be perfect (and perfectly skinny) to be loved?
    These are all things my guest Denise has struggled with. Thankfully, she learned how to make herself renew her mind.

She shares her journey with us in today's episode of the Taste for Truth Podcast.
    What We Discussed
    How to make yourself renew your mind when you don't feel like it

    7-Week Master Class on Transformation

    11/01/2025 | 6 min
    The live 7-Week Master Class on Transformation Begins January 28, 2025!!!
    Do you ever say, "I can't believe I've been a Christian for x number of years and I'm still struggling with this?" Are you reluctant to work on transformation because you're afraid you'll fail like you did last time? Do you have some area of your life where you feel stuck?
    My guess is that we can all answer "yes" to at least one of those questions. It's discouraging to fail over and over again.
    Romans 12:2 tells us that the answer to our struggles is to renew our minds. But there are two problems with this approach: 1) We don't necessarily know what that means or 2) we do know how to renew our minds but we can't make ourselves do it consistently enough to see transformation.
    My 7-Week Master Class on Transformation will help you with both of those problems. We'll get together, each choose an area of our lives to work on, and work together on transformation.
    What area of transformation would you like help with?
    Here are a few areas you may want to work on during this transformation class:
    Break a habit such as overeating, overspending, or too much time on your phone even though you have zero discipline in that area.
    Achieve a goal such as writing a book, developing a habit of consistently completing your to-do list each day, or starting a business even if you're a born procrastinator and can't make yourself work on your project or list.
    Break free from a negative emotion like anger, worry, discontentment, and insecurity even if that emotion has been with you as long as you can remember. Often we think we can't let go of the negative emotions. Our only hope is to escape them with some self-destructive behavior, stuff them, or control our behavior so the emotion doesn't hurt ourselves and others. But the truth is, God can help us let go of those negative emotions situation by situation and live in peace and joy (Galatians 5). We'll learn how to do that in this class.
    What are some side benefits (but often the biggest benefits of all) of working on transformation?
    No matter what practical area you choose to work on, God will use the transformation process to help you achieve the following goals:
    Grow closer to God and more excited about your times with Him as you develop the practical habit of carrying each thought captive to the truth through the renewing of the min.
    Live in peace and joy as you learn how to corral, process, and let go of the thoughts that are swirling in your head, threatening to drive you crazy.
    Improve relationships and learn how to love others better as you grow in the fruit of the Spirit.
    What is the set up of the class?
    Here are a few features of the class:
    It will be live. We'll meet on Zoom but the sessions will also be recorded if you can't make it.
    I'll give 15-30 minutes of instruction but we'll be pausing during the class to apply what I teach to the area of your life that you want to work on.
    We'll meet once a week for seven sessions but I'll have six weeks of homework for you to do during the week to apply what you learned to the area of your life you're working on.
    At the end of each class, I'll have breakout rooms where you can share how you did with your renewing each week and what God taught you during the week.
    You'll also have a chance to find accountability partners.
    When will the class start?
    The class will begin on January 28, 2025. We will meet weekly for 7 sessions on Tuesdays at 12:00 EST. Each class will be be 1 to 1 1/2 hours long.
    What if I can't make the live sessions?
    If you can't make the live sessions, I'll have a replay available by the next day, possibly sooner. The replays will be available until at least 6/1/25, possibly longer, so that you have time to do the class.
    What is the cost of the class?
    Although classes like this are often quite expensive, I want everyone to be able to take it, so I'm offering the class at $27 USD.
    Is there a deadline for signing up for the class?
    Yes, the deadline is January 28, 2025. This is not an on-demand class so even if you plan to take it later, you'll need to sign up now so I can email you links to the class videos and homework each week.
    Where can I sign up?

    I also wanted to mention that I will be tapering off and ultimately ending the Taste for Truth Podcast in January of 2025. I will still be doing my Christian Habits Podcast, and all of the past Taste for Truth episodes will still be available! I'm just at a place in my life where I need to find a work-life balance that is sustainable, and going down to one podcast seems like a very helpful way to do that.
    I am also planning to give online course creation a try. If you are interested in staying informed about that, click here.
