It is not often that I cry when reading a book, but I cried more than once while reading Cravings. Why did I cry? Because the truth is beautiful. God is beautiful. I have been writing and speaking about food, faith, and family since 2008. I see connections in Scripture, in the liturgy, and in Catholic practice that can really help families to grow in faith and love around the family table. I get so excited when I meet other people who see the same thing. Mary definitely sees it.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Take a quick hop over to Jeff&#8217;s place by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/catholicfoodie.com\/cravings-a-refreshing-guide-to-freedom-in-christ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a> to read his full post on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Cravings-Catholic-Wrestles-Food-Self-Image\/dp\/1594713057\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1357576521&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=Cravings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Cravings<\/em><\/a>.
