#12. Temptation, the Bible & Eating Disorders with Jayme Muller

On episode 12, host Jayme Muller goes solo again to share an exclusive excerpt from her devotional book, also titled Recover with God.

Jayme reads both the introduction to the book — which includes a summary of her own eating disorder recovery story — and chapter 10: "The Temptation is Real."

Jayme's book is available for purchase on Amazon as both a paperback and ebook. Click here to get it on Amazon. (Note: this is an Amazon affiliate link.)

Recover with God(the book that came before the podcast) was born from Jayme's own struggle to connect with God during her ED struggle. She learned along the journey to recovery that God wants a relationship with us IN our mess, not after we "fix" it — and she is passionate to share that message with everyone who needs it like she once did.
