Study notes from tonight's study on Over Eating, in the Bible study room..
Over Eating....
***DISCLAIMER***
Before I get going, I want to acknowledge that some people have eating issues that are beyond their control, due to a variety of things, like gland, health, or severe over the top emotional problems.
This study is not necessarily addressing those people with issues beyond their control. *
This study IS addressing those who have issues within their control.
This study is meant to help those who are in control and are seeking to get back some control on this issue, through Biblical truth and the power of God.
