Have you ever wondered if God really cares about your struggle with food — or if it even matters to Him?

In this episode, Tony and I talk about Step Two of the 12 Steps and the foundation of recovery: learning to trust a God who loves us and is able to restore us. We explore God’s character, not our behavior, and why shame, guilt, and fear so often distort how we see Him.

We reflect on powerful Scriptures, including the Prodigal Son, Romans 8, Isaiah 41, and 1 Peter 5:7, reminding us that nothing separates us from God’s love and that every burden matters to Him — even our struggles with food. We also share insights from the Life Recovery Bible and the story of the woman who reached out to Jesus in faith and was healed.

You’ll hear how recovery doesn’t come from willpower, but from relying on God’s power, walking in prayer, and staying connected to Him and to others. One of our members even shares a spontaneous, heartfelt insight during the discussion — a beautiful reminder that God meets us right in the middle of our conversations and our lives.

If Step Two has ever felt hard, confusing, or out of reach, this episode offers hope, truth, and encouragement: we recover from a place of being loved — not by earning love, but by trusting it.
