Food Is Not the Enemy

Receiving Food With Thanksgiving, Without Fear or Shame

by Kimani Upshur, M.Ed.

Receive food with thanksgiving, without fear or shame (1 Timothy 4:4). Food is God's good gift, not a moral scorecard — a gentle, grace-based word for teens who struggle with food and body image.

A 12-chapter book for teenagers ages 13–18, with an illustrated chapter opener for every chapter, Scripture from the King James Version (KJV), Do, Reflect, and Pray sections in every chapter, and a Gospel Invitation in the back that shares the good news of Jesus Christ.

Written from a Christian worldview — Scripture first.
