Gluttony isn’t only about food. It can show up anywhere in our lives where having enough still leaves us reaching for more.

We live in a world that constantly encourages us to consume more, experience more, and surround ourselves with more. But when overindulgence becomes a substitute for the satisfaction only God can provide, we can find ourselves moving farther away from the life He has for us.

In this episode, Angie steps into Proverbs 28:7 for a broader look at gluttony and the ways overindulgence can quietly take hold in our lives. We’re reminded to recognize where we may be lacking restraint, pay attention to what our choices are costing us, and trust God to lead us toward the kind of abundance that truly satisfies.

What you’ll hear in this week’s episode

• Why gluttony reaches far beyond our relationship with food
• How overindulgence can reveal places of dissatisfaction in our lives
• What the original Hebrew word for “glutton” teaches us about excess and treating lightly what matters
• How a lack of restraint can keep us from fully living as God created us to live
• Why following God’s direction leads us toward deeper satisfaction and contentment
