I was disappointed that this episode said nothing about the historic Christian practice of fasting. Just as faithful tithing and generosity are a discipline on greed, would fasting be a good discipline on an idolatrous attitude toward food?

Very good correction, dear brother. We failed there. Love,

Would you consider addressing it in a future episode? Scripture takes it for granted that we would fast, but today we’re all ignorant about it

Responded by email, but it occurs to me to link here to Samuel Miller’s, The Duty, the Benefits, and the Proper Methods of Religious Fasting. Love,

And worth remembering that the mediaeval church understood gluttony to be one of the seven deadly sins.
