Do you ever feel like weight loss is an uphill battle with no end in sight? Sometimes it helps to have someone walk (or climb) alongside you. I’m hoping my new weight loss podcast will offer that kind of help!
It’s called Taste for Truth Podcast (after my weight loss Bible study by the same name), and it will be full of interviews, tips, encouragement, and opportunities to renew your mind while you listen to the podcast.

Taste for Truth Weight Loss Podcast
Here’s a sampling of the types of episodes you’ll be listening to on the podcast:
- Coaching Interviews: I’ll be interviewing people who are in the heart of the struggle, going through the exact same things you’re going through. As you listen to us brainstorm about things they can change to grow a little closer to victory, hopefully you’ll hear a few things that will help you with your own journey!
- Victory Interviews: These will be interviews with people who are already experiencing success with weight loss and/or maintenance. As they share their tips and stories, you’ll be encouraged to keep on going when you feel like giving up!
- Author/Coach Interviews: I’ll also be interviewing authors and coaches who help people with weight loss and maintenance.
- Renewing of the Mind Interviews: I’ll use the questions and Bible verses in I Deserve a Donut (And Other Lies That Make You Eat) and The Renewing of the Mind Project to give you some opportunities to renew your mind while you listen to the podcast. These will be episodes you can listen to in the moment of temptation to help you go to God for help with weight loss or to prepare your mind for a temptation you expect to face later that day.
How to Find Out About Future Episodes
I’ll have a blog called tastefortruth.com associated with the podcast, but it will be a bare-bones blog. I’ll use it to include links to resources we talk about on the podcast, but you won’t be able to subscribe to it like you can with this blog.
If you want to find out about future episodes, the best way to do that is to subscribe to the podcast. You can do that by searching for the podcast in the podcast app that is on your smartphone or you can subscribe to or listen to the podcast on your computer through one of the above links. (To listen on iTunes, just hover over the number to the left of the podcast episode and there will be a little arrow to hit to play the podcast.)
Christian Habits Podcast
Also wanted to let you know that I will still be doing the Christian Habits Podcast. For the next few months, I’ll try to get a Taste for Truth Podcast out once a week so will continue to just put the sporadic episode out on the Christian Habits Podcast. Eventually, I’d like to have a more even schedule of posting to each podcast. Not sure what that will be as my first priority is still writing Bible studies and so far I’m not an on-the-ball enough person to both write Bible studies and also do podcasts at a high level of frequency!
I am very excited about this new podcast. Thanks Barb
Thanks, Denise! Hope you enjoy it!
Praying for your ministry! It’s turning into a brand!
Thank you, Floyd! I appreciate that!
I enjoyed the podcast, very inspiring. Thanks for all you do Barb!
So glad you enjoyed it, Lisa!
Your books and podcasts have been invaluable to me. Thank you for your hard work and obedience, Barb. They have made a big difference in my life.
Thank you, Sherry!
Congratulations, Barb! Gods grace and blessings in this new endeavor. I like that its applicable to whatever habit we want to break, its the same discipline and the same God :)
Thanks, Ngina! I’m excited to have it out. It seems like any new thing takes a long time to figure out how to do it, make decisions, and then get it out! I’m glad that part of it is over and I can just enjoy doing the interviews!
You’re doing awesome! I look forward to listening and reading.
Praying for you and your ministry.
Thanks, TC! I appreciate that!
I listened to all the episodes last night/this morning. Wonderful! In particular, the interview with Jules Lane was profound to me – I listened to it 4-5 times! Thanks for all your obedience, Barb.
Yay! So glad you enjoyed the podcast, Eileen! And so glad the interview with Jules was helpful! It was really fun visiting with her, and I know she has lots of good advice since she has been through everything!
Hey Barb, I’m going to check out the new podcast and I’ll let you know what I think. My wife and I are desperately trying to lose some weight before we go back the the States for a few months this summer.
That’s great, Caleb! Hope you find some helpful episodes and good encouragement! Would love to hear what you think of it!
Hi Barb, in Episode 3 you asked us to let you know if you were leaving enough time after the Bible verses and questions, so I just wanted to let you know I thought it was perfect. If I ever need more time, I can just pause the podcast. Thanks for all you do!
Oh that’s great, Ashley! Thanks for letting me know!
Hey Barb! I just wanted to let you know that I love your podcast so much that I included you and a link to it in my most recent post about the importance of Christian women taking care of their bodies. I pray that God continues to bless your ministry :) Thank you for all that you do!
So glad you enjoy the podcast, Becki! And thanks for including me in your blog post – I really appreciate that! I checked out the post and it looks like a wonderful resource for those who struggle with feeling like they have to be skinny plus it looks like you have a lot of interesting posts on your blog. Thanks again for including my resources!
Hi Barb!
I’m so glad to have found your website and resources! I’ve fought with God for over 2 years regarding starting a weight loss accountability group at my church (holding tightly to the lie that I can do this on my own.) Through a series of circumstances that included the unexpected death of my brother, I finally surrendered and told God I’d do it if He’d give me the material. That’s how I found your website, and 2 weeks ago 7 of us ladies began your Taste for Truth study and weekly accountability. I’m excited to see the transformation God brings as we renew our minds with the truth of His Word. I love the practicality of this study, and the podcasts are very helpful to see how the truths are fleshed out in daily experience. Thank you for being faithful to what He’s called you to do!
Hi Shelly! I’m so sorry to hear about your brother! I hope you have a lot of support as I know how hard it must be to deal with that loss. :( Also, I think it’s so exciting that you started a study! It’s always wonderful to do what God wants us to do no matter how long it takes to do it! Plus it sounds like you’re enjoying your group too which is delightful! Praying God will help all of you as you to to Him and each other for help with weight loss!
God bless this ministry keep spreading the word and being awesome!
Thanks for the encouragement, Michelle!
