This is not a simple book on how to eat right and lose weight. Asheritah’s fine research into the psychology of food fixation and the biblical and spiritual roots of this preoccupation is captivating. But she doesn’t stop there. She surveys the biblical perspective of God’s gift of food and how to celebrate and serve others with food. An incredibly uplifting and hope-filled book.

After reading Full, I am convinced that it is a vital resource for all Christian counselors to help individuals and groups break free from food fixation and grow deeper in their walk with Christ. Asheritah compels readers to explore and uncover the spiritual and emotional roots of food fixation while also providing practical application steps toward health and wholeness. Full is refreshingly honest and compassionately convicting, addressing a topic that I have yet to hear preached from the pulpit in twenty-plus years of regular church attendance and yet one that every soul is hungry to hear.
