Endorsements
"Whether ministering to moms who are easily triggered with their kids, or encouraging husbands and wives who are triggered in their marriages, Amber Lia faithfully has reminded us that TRIGGERS = OPPORTUNITIES! And now (cue the confetti) Amber challenges us to consider our food triggers, because triggers = opportunities here too. Each time we are tempted to turn to food as our comfort or reward is an opportunity to remember Jesus' invitation: 'Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.' What if your hunger pangs aren't about physical hunger at all but an invitation to develop a spiritual appetite for God? If food is your trigger, this is your opportunity!"
Wendy Speake, author of The 40-Day Sugar Fast and coauthor of Triggers: Exchanging Parents' Angry Reactions for Gentle Biblical Responses
