Is obsessing over seed oils, beef tallow, sourdough, and toxin-free living actually biblical stewardship — or is it something else?Biblical counselor and professor Greg Gifford joins the podcast to tackle the growing "crunchy" movement inside the church. We define what extreme crunchiness looks like, why it's spreading among Christians (especially post-COVID), and how fear-based eating can quietly become legalism.In this episode we cover: • What "crunchy" and "extreme crunchy" actually means • Why stewardship gets misused to justify health anxiety • The danger of Christian Gnosticism in wellness culture • Romans 14, Christian liberty, and food freedom • How the sovereignty of God sets us free from fear-based eating • Practical wisdom for navigating this in Bible studies, friendships, and parentingWhether you're crunchy, anti-crunchy, or somewhere in the middle — this conversation will help you think biblically about food, health, and honoring God with your body.This episode is brought to you by our ministry partner Accountable2You.
