S3. E14. Mercy over macros: What God actually desires

If you’ve ever thought that being healthy meant being hard on yourself… this episode is for you. So many women are stuck in cycles of restriction, over-exercising, food guilt, and striving — believing they’re “disciplining” themselves or stewarding their bodies well. But what if God never asked for punishment in the first place? In this episode, Abbie unpacks Hosea 6:6 — “For I desire mercy, not sacrifice…” — and explores the difference between self-imposed suffering versus true obedience to God. You’ll learn:  Why extreme discipline does NOT impress God  The difference between punishment and partnership  How to discern if your health habits are producing good fruit  Why obedience flows from relationship, not striving  The warning signs that “healthy habits” may actually be rooted in control or fear  What it looks like to steward your body from a place of grace instead of guilt Ready to start your journey?
