Body image idolatry - What is that? If you're new to this show or my ministry, this episode will tell you about the number one reason why I believe Christian women get stuck in body image issues. It's so easy for us to make an idol out of our ideal bodies. We believe we will be happier, more peaceful, more joyful, or able to rest once we reach that goal weight or size. But, the truth is this type of salvation -- the salvation message that tells us freedom comes from a certain body shape or type--is a false salvation. Today we pray against our tendency to fall for the body image idol and its cunning ways.

New International Version Jonah 2:8 “Those who cling to worthless idols turn away from God’s love for them."
