Episode Description

Sugar gets a bad rap - but what does the Bible actually say about it?

In this episode, we take a biblical and biological look at sugar, exploring why not all sweeteners are created equal and how God designed sweetness to be used with wisdom, seasonality, and discernment. We’ll unpack the role of honey, maple syrup, dates and the surprising benefits of molasses - plus the sugar I’m using most often these days.

Food fear, sugar shaming and feeling sugar shamed is not peaceful or productive. Instead, let’s talk about scripture, stewardship, and learning how to enjoy sweetness without being ruled by it.
