Podcasts about Gluttony

"The Venus flytrap, a devouring organism, aptly named for the goddess of love." ― Tennessee Williams, Suddenly Last Summer "The first screenplay Griffith wrote was Cardula, a Dracula-themed story involving a vampire music critic. After Corman rejected the idea, Griffith says he wrote a screenplay titled Gluttony, in which the protagonist was "a salad chef in a restaurant who would wind up cooking customers and stuff like that, you know? We couldn't do that though because of the code at the time. So I said, 'How about a man-eating plant?', and Roger said, 'Okay.' By that time, we were both drunk." - wikipedia

What is gluttony really? If you’ve ever worried about overeating, obsessing about food, or wondered whether enjoying that extra slice of cake is a spiritual failure, this episode is for you. Best-selling author and host Heather Creekmore dives deep into the true heart behind gluttony—exploring why our modern definitions miss the mark and how diet culture and church culture have distorted our understanding. Heather reframes gluttony, drawing on biblical insight, church history, and thought-provoking examples from C.S. Lewis and Tim Keller. She challenges the idea that gluttony is simply about having seconds or what’s on your plate and asks powerful questions about cravings, control, and where we derive our satisfaction. Plus, Heather explores how misplaced fears about food can keep us stuck and why true freedom comes from surrender—not self-denial. Whether food has become a source of stress or you’re striving for perfect control, this conversation will open your eyes to new ways of understanding your desires and finding satisfaction. Ready to rethink gluttony and experience food freedom? Listen now for practical encouragement, spiritual wisdom, and a fresh take you won’t want to miss!

This sermon was preached by Jared Osborne on October 27, 2025 and is part of the series 7 Deadly Sins of the Young Adult. 

How do we get the rest, the order, and the productivity levels that we need? As an adult the work never stops, so when do we say “when?” As humans we have desires that are legitimate and need to be fulfilled. Again, when do we say “enough” How much is “good” for us? Listen in. Quotes:“Do you not want the King?” “Want him?” she replied, “How can there be anything that I did not want?” -Perelandra by, C.S. Lewis

Gluttony is what happens when feeling full is more important than being fulfilled.

"Food, glorious food! Hot sausage and mustard! While we're in the mood--Cold jelly and custard! Please pudding and saveloy! What next is the question? Rich gentlemen have it, boys- - In-di-gestion!Food, Glorius food! We're anxious to try it. Three banquets a day -- Our favourite diet!Just picture a great big steak- - Fried, roasted or stewed.

Throughout this series, we will be looking at the sins that derail us in our walks with God, but also cures that deliver us. And part of what we learned so far, is that real heart and life change begins with an awareness of the places in our life where we are the most susceptible to sin. And it's easy to see why: It's because you can't fix what you don't know is wrong.This week we dove into the story of a woman who found herself in this exact predicament— unaware of the condition of her soul, oblivious to the life found only in Christ, and surrendered to herself and her desires alone.We explored this more in a message titled, “From Gluttony to Sacrifice”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Atheism is often pointed out as a religion, and in many ways, the obsession with health and wellness has become its own secular form of legalism. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar remind listeners that while bodily exercise is valuable, it can easily become idolatry if it replaces worship of the Lord. Gluttony has long been a silent sin, rarely addressed in churches, yet food can just as easily become an idol as the pursuit of beauty or fitness. The guys emphasize the need for balance: a pastor should not be marked by obvious gluttony, but at the same time, believers must avoid falling into the opposite extremes. Humans are wired to worship—so the question is, what or who are you worshiping?There is nothing wrong with caring for the body, but when the motive is self-glorification rather than glorifying God, the line has been crossed. Historically, Christians have been known for fasting, generosity, and blessing others, rather than being consumed by self-care. When self-care becomes an idol, it often reveals a fear of death and a desire to earn immortality. The truth is that the outer man is wasting away, and eternal life is found only in Christ. Motivation determines whether health is pursued as an idol or as stewardship of the temple of the Holy Spirit. Oscar shares that he lifts weights to maintain strength and longevity, aiming to serve God and his family well as he ages. E.Z. adds that part of his drive is to avoid becoming a burden to his children and to maximize his impact for the Lord.The wellness industry has grown worldwide, but combining wellness practices with paganism introduces another possible danger. Practices like meditation or yoga often promise salvation through Eastern philosophies, but they are just another form of legalism that cannot defeat death. Eternal youth is a false hope; eternal glory in Christ is the true answer. Believers should desire to live fully until they die, striving to honor God with their bodies.The guys emphasize the practical benefits of activity, pointing out that humans were not made for a sedentary life in front of screens. Exercising strengthens both body and mind, and tackling tough challenges builds confidence and resilience. At the same time, they warn against being judgmental toward others who practice moderation. Rest, too, is part of God's design, and the Sabbath reminds believers that they are not machines defined solely by their productivity. Ultimately, the message is simple: avoid gluttony and laziness, reject the idolization of beauty, view health as stewardship, and above all, love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Why do we have to be cautious with inordinate pleasure? How does gluttony function in our lives, and how do we resist this vice?

In this powerful RELATE series, we discover what it truly means to turn from sin to God. Repentance isn't about guilt—it's about agreeing with God about our sin and choosing His way instead of our own. This message exposes the root of the seven deadly sins—Pride, Anger, Greed, Lust, Envy, Gluttony, and Sloth—and reveals the virtues that conquer them: humility, patience, generosity, love, gratitude, self-control, and diligence. Learn how pride destroys relationships, how anger hides behind our desire for control, and how greed distorts our sense of security. Through Scripture and reflection, Pastor John challenges us to trade our “I deserve” mindset for God's greater reward and to live in true repentance.

Series looking at "The Screwtape Letters" by C. S. Lewis. Church hopping, Gluttony, Sexual Temptation.

In the Middle Ages, theologians said there are different forms of gluttony—that you can eat and drink excessively, sumptuously, daintily, or impulsively. Technically, gluttony means to eat and drink immoderately. But gluttony also tells us something about each of us. Gluttony is taking something good and then cramming it in until we're sick of it. Our desires are disordered so that good and necessary things become cravings. Sin, in other words, makes us all addicted to something. We all crave something, and we do it in such a way that it is very, very bad for us. Let's look at three things this Scripture teaches us about craving: 1) the depth of our craving, 2) the structure of our craving, and 3) the healing. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 5, 1995. Series: The Seven Deadly Sins. Scripture: Joshua 7:19-26, Hosea 2:13-15.

What does the Bible say about alcohol? How about smoking? It can be easy for Christians to fall into one of two ditches: legalism or anti-nomianism. However, while fundamentalist Christians are worried about things like drinking, smoking, or dancing, they tend to ignore the problem of gluttony. On the other side, while wanting to enjoy alcohol, entertainment, etc, do these things start to take the place of true joy and fulfillment, which can only be obtained through God?

Today, I'm joined by my dear friend and colleague Geta Barbu — gut health practitioner, nutritionist, and faith-filled truth-teller — for a raw, convicting conversation about what's really going on in the wellness industry. We're unpacking 8 wellness trends that Scripture actually warns us about, including: ✨ Idolatry of the body ✨ False prophets + empty promises (hi, TikTok detox kits

A new MP3 sermon from Generations Radio is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Alcohol, Smoking, and Gluttony – What Does the Bible Say About That? Speaker: Kevin Swanson Broadcaster: Generations Radio Event: Radio Broadcast Date: 10/8/2025 Length: 23 min.

In the UK one of the great global car brands is on the verge of bankruptcy this month due to a single cyber-attack with the consequence of a potential loss of 130,000 jobs. Jaguar Land Rover is seeking a government bail-out to survive. In this first of a series of seminars delivered from the founder of a cybersecurity company in the same city where Jaguar Land Rover is reeling from this attack, we will cover Four Deadly Sins of Cyber with the other 3 sins in a follow-up seminar:1. Sloth: Bloated legacy architectures and slow patch cycles, run very real risks of seeing their progress as "good enough" up until the very moment some major event proves it wasn't. We will look at how to focus on compartmentalization, and containment.2. Gluttony: Exponential expansion of networks and devices to serve the AI-masters leading to the Skynet moment. Cyber threats leverage connectivity to spread; contagion control comes from knowing how to control that connectivity.3. Greed: Insatiable desire to acquire the latest and greatest security software, in the belief that newer is better, irrespective of how it fits and is to be used. Not so in OT networks where few of those are fit for purpose. The aim for simplicity benefits the most important questions "what is where?", "what exactly is the threat?" and "where can we exert control of threats accessing critical resources?".4. Pride: Overconfidence and self-assuredness in the status quo, doing more of the same will be fine. How's that working out so far? Humans-in-the-loop: some method of controlling contagion is essential. Minimizing the loss remains mandatory. The second half of the seminar will cover three perspectives of a founder of a hardware cybersecurity innovator : 1. The need to look at RoI when deploying solutions, 2. How to frame CNI cyber solutions within SDG/sustainability/impact, and 3. Moving beyond code-jockeys – cyber career perspectives requiring skills in humanities (psychology, philosophy, etc.) to think differently. About the speaker: Stephen is an international corporate lawyer with expertise in complex M&A and tax efficient commercial transactions in the US, UK and emerging markets. He has been a general counsel for ultra-high net worth individuals and families as well as international law firms. He is focused on emerging technologies, including blockchain and cybersecurity. A natural manager, Stephen also isn't afraid to do the work that needs to be done in an efficient bootstrapped startup. He is also know for his avid community engagement and commitment to sustainability at all levels. Also a former military officer, Stephen is the 2IC of Goldilock - keeping 'selection and maintenance of the aim' front of mind.

Weeds in My Garden | Gluttony & Apathy | Jonathan Moynihan

This Sunday, we kicked off a new series called Curing the 7 Deadly Sins. Over the next ten weeks we'll walk through struggles that have been tripping people up for centuries—Pride, Lust, Greed, Envy, Sloth, Gluttony, Wrath. More importantly we will discover the freedom Jesus offers in their place!This week we started the conversation with Pride! Pride so often sits at the root of the others, whispering that we can handle life on our own, that God's way is optional, that His grace isn't really needed. But the truth is, pride keeps us from seeing God clearly, while humility opens our eyes.This weekend wasn't just about naming sin, it's about finding freedom. Together we learned how humility opens the door to God's best.

In exploring the sin of gluttony, we're challenged to examine our relationship with food and how it impacts our spiritual lives. The story of the Israelites in Exodus 16 serves as a powerful reminder of how easily we can prioritize our physical hunger over trusting in God's provision. We're all susceptible to gluttony in various forms - whether it's demanding specific quality, consuming excessive quantities, eating at inappropriate times, or using food to fill emotional voids. But there's hope! Jesus, described as a 'friend of gluttons,' offers us a better feast. He invites us to find true satisfaction in Him, reminding us that He is the Bread of Life. As we reflect on our eating habits, let's consider how we can use meals as a platform to glorify God and strengthen our faith, rather than allowing food to become an idol that distances us from Him.

How many times have you told yourself, “I'm just giving myself grace”—right after overeating or slipping into old habits? As Christian women, we know grace is one of the most beautiful gifts God has given us. But sometimes, we misplace it. Grace was never meant to excuse sin or keep us stuck in unhealthy cycles. Instead, it's meant to lift us up and empower us to walk in righteousness.In today's episode, I'm sharing encouragement and scripture to help you keep grace in its proper place—strength for the journey, not a license for gluttony. Together we'll look at what God's Word says about grace, how to recognize when we're using it as an excuse, and how to let grace lead us into freedom, wholeness, and health.What you'll learn in this episode:✨ The difference between true grace and cheap excuses✨ Why Romans 5:20 and Romans 6:1–2 remind us grace is not permission to keep sinning✨ How to invite conviction without slipping into condemnation✨ Practical ways to let grace guide your health journey toward strength and holinessScriptures mentioned:Romans 5:20Romans 6:1–2Hebrews 12:11Psalm 23:3Let's Connect:

Some sins are obvious, marked by shame and confession. But what about the ones we don't think twice about—habits so ingrained in our lives that they no longer feel like sins at all? That's the premise of this new sermon series. The first message hones in on gluttony, where it's not about the number on a scale but the posture of our hearts toward food. Could it be that our overindulgence, excessive cravings, and disregard for self-control are keeping us from the purpose God has for us? Pastor Mike helps us explore what Scripture says about gluttony, why it matters, and how Jesus meets us at the table—not with condemnation but with grace that leads to change.

Women are often praised for being “good” but what if goodness is holding us back from being whole? In this deeply thought-provoking episode, bestselling author Elise Loehnen returns to discuss her new workbook, Choosing Wholeness Over Goodness, a companion to her New York Times bestseller, On Our Best Behavior. They explore how deeply ingrained cultural programming shapes women's identities, expectations, and stories, often without our awareness. Elise breaks down the seven “sins” that subconsciously govern women's lives, including the good girl script, perfectionism, and self-sacrifice, and teaches us how to reclaim power by choosing truth and wholeness over performance and fear. You'll learn tangible tools for self-inquiry including “fact versus story”, how to identify fear responses, naming personas, and how to recognize if you're caught in a drama triangle.  This episode is rich with insights, tools, and real-life examples that will help you begin to shift your internal stories, access deeper self-compassion, and build stronger, healthier boundaries. It's not about being a better woman—it's about being more you.

She is the host of Pulling the Thread, a podcast focused on pulling apart the stories we tell about who we are—and then putting those threads back together. Ultimately Elise is a seeker and synthesizer, braiding together wisdom traditions, cultural history, and a deep knowledge of healing modalities to unlock new ways to contextualize who we are and why we're here. She's also the author of the instant New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good (Dial Press/PRH). The book weaves together history, memoir, and cultural criticism to explore the ways patriarchy lands in the bodies of women and embeds itself in our consciousness—and what we then police in ourselves and in each other. Regardless of our religious provenance, the self-denial implicit in each of the Seven Deadly Sins—Sloth, Envy, Pride, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Anger—reads like a checklist of what it means to be a “good” woman. With awareness, we can begin to recognize these patterns of self-restriction, break the story, and move ourselves and each other toward freedom and balance. Elise is a frequent contributor to Oprah, and has written for The New York Times, Elle Decor, Stylist, and more.

We often associate the sin of gluttony with overuse of food and drink, but it often applies to other activities as well. In this episode, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, discusses the many ways in which sin can manifest in our lives and how we can combat it. Become a Marian Helper!Discover more about the Catholic faith on Divine Mercy Plus! 

Most people don't have self control over anything! If you don't have self control it will lead to many more issues in your life. Self control is also one of the "Fruits of the Spirit!" The lack of self control can lead to different addictions (sex, food, drugs, alcohol), and other things such as negative thoughts, anger, etc., that ultimately causes many problems for people. What you don't have self control over, will control you! It goes back to the mindset that a person has, because we all have free will to exert self contol, but we all don't use it for the good in our own lives. Hence why, people have no self control in many areas of their lives!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/relationships-and-relatable-life-chronicles--4126439/support.

Here comes Season 11, Episode 10: The Devil in the Details, where everybody is trying to get in somebody. Sam is forced to witness his awkward teenage years, we're forced to witness an Amelia flashback, and Cas is forced to wear the world's most awkward brand on his chest. Liz discusses the medieval torture device known as the Scold's Bridle, also referred to as the witch's bridle, a gossip's bridle, a brank's bridle, or simply the branks. Hop on one foot indeed.

Apostolic Pentecostals have long taken a strong stand against substances that harm the body—tobacco, alcohol, illegal drugs, and the abuse of prescription medications. But if we condemn smoking and drinking for destroying the body, what about overconsumption of sugar, soda, and junk food which contribute to obesity, diabetes, and other serious health conditions?In this thought-provoking podcast episode, Dr. David K. Bernard tackles a challenging question: what biblical and practical guidelines should Apostolics follow when it comes to physical health and the stewardship of our bodies? He also explores the rise of energy drinks and highly caffeinated beverages, especially among youth and young adults. Are these modern stimulants harmless pick-me-ups, or do they pose spiritual and physical risks worth considering?Whether you're trying to make healthier choices or understand the biblical principles behind lifestyle decisions, this episode offers clarity, conviction, and compassion.Visit PentecostalPublishing.com to shop Dr. Bernard's full catalog of published works.
