Food, Faith, and Fasting Quotes

“Only struggle a little more. Carry your cross without complaining. Don’t think you are anything special. Don’t justify your sins and weaknesses, but see yourself as you really are. And, especially, love one another. —FATHER SERAPHIM ROSE”
― Rita Madden, Food, Faith, and Fasting: A Sacred Journey to Better Health

“the book is written for those who are struggling with the concept of caring for their health in a balanced way. These include (but are not necessarily limited to) the person who tries every new dietary recommendation; the one who is obsessed with, or tyrannized by, rigid eating rules; and the person who has a preoccupation with healthy eating that unwittingly ends up inducing stress in everyday life. Food (and health for that matter) may take such a hold in a person’s life that it becomes an idol. The book will address ways of dealing with that idol.”
