Review Quotes

"The Living Diet is no mere religious self-help book or gimmicky "God wants you to be slim" dietary plan. What Martha Tartarnic has written is better, deeper, and wiser. She has placed our cultural anxieties about food and bodies into a larger theological vision, encouraging us to find the redemptive joys of sharing, nourishment, and community, rather than participating in "a culture that treats food as the enemy rather than a gift." Savor this book!"
