To renew your mind is no easy task. God tells us in Romans 12:2 “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” 

If we are not careful, the “patterns of the world” will have us believing lies in no time.

Lies of… I’m not enough. I can’t do it. This cookie will help me feel better. One bite won’t hurt. I’ll start tomorrow.

These lies keep us in a vicious cycle of defeat. Right where the enemy wants us.

We MUST break free.

When it comes to freeing ourselves from the lies we continue to believe, there’s only one way out… We must renew our minds by God’s strength through the power of His Word.

 

But how exactly do you renew your mind?

Join me in this episode of Healthy Free Life Show as I welcome Christian author, Barb Raveling, to talk about how to renew the mind so you can achieve a healthy free life.

You’ll learn:

• what it means to renew your through God’s Word
• why it’s so vitally important for Christians to practice this
• and how to renew your mind on a practical, daily basis.

 

Renew Your Mind with Guest Barb Raveling

Barb is one of the few Christian authors writing about the mental and spiritual battle that women face as they seek to get healthy or lose weight. She struggled for years to lose weight and overcome emotional eating, but it wasn’t until she used the power of God’s Word to renew her mind, body, and soul. Finally, she experienced freedom for the first time.

 

“We need to renew our mind, change our thoughts, so we don’t have those thoughts driving us to do the things that we will later regret.” – Barb Raveling

 

Barb’s books are so powerful that I recommend them to my clients and they often use her teachings in combination with the Healthy Free Life Way to achieve even greater results!
