S2. E9. Obedience > Sacrifice: How to truly steward your body with God

Did God actually tell you to cut out carbs? Go keto? Or start the carnivore diet? 😬

Sometimes we make huge sacrifices in the name of “health” or “righteousness”... but if it’s not what God actually called us to do, it’s disobedience—not devotion.

In today’s powerful episode of Your Daily Bread, Abbie unpacks 1 Samuel 15:20–22 and shares why obedience is greater than sacrifice—in your relationship with food, in your body image journey, and in your everyday health habits.

This episode will lovingly convict you, challenge worldly diet culture, and call you back to intimacy with Jesus, where true freedom is found. 🙏

✨ In this episode:

• Why not every “healthy habit” is holy
• How worldly “sacrifices” can become spiritual disobedience
• Why you should ask God for your divine to-do list daily
• How Saul’s mistake in 1 Samuel mirrors modern diet culture
• How to know if you're walking in God's will (or just trying to please Him)
• Practical steps to hear God’s voice in your health journey 🎯

📖 Scripture References:

• 1 Samuel 15:20–22
• Matthew 6:33
• Proverbs 3:5–6
