    About this series


    The Lord's Favor in the Flavor!

    Ever felt guilty about how much you eat? Or what you eat? Or when you eat? Let this book dispel your guilt!

    A former journalist and religion correspondent, the author describes his own recovery from an eating disorder and, using principles from the Bible and great thinkers, shows why diets and "low-fat" foods are a path to condemnation and doomed to fail. Instead, he lights the way to joy and freedom, a peaceful path to your healthy weight.

    Meanwhile, he celebrates the infinite variety of "Grace", meaning the "unmerited favor of God", and shows how this simple idea transforms us, both at the individual level as well as globally.

    This book requires nothing of you. There are no affirmations to recite, no boring exercises, no burdens of any kind. Rather, let it take you gently by the hand and set you free!


    "A majestic flow of words."

    Amy's Bookshelf Reviews


    "Abdiel LeRoy shares that bliss of freedom of conscience in everything we do. He is one of our treasured spiritual guides—a man who cares deeply about setting us free from the unnecessary restrictions imposed on us, as well as those that are self-imposed! Read this book and breathe freedom. Highly Recommended."

      Breathe Freedom in the Grace of God! Ever worried you don't live up to God's standards? Ever felt you don't measure up as a person of faith? Do spiritual teachings leave you feeling condemned? Then take heart! You are a "slave to righteousness"—in other words, someone naturally aligned with the will of God. When the apostle Paul said, "The old has gone, the new has come," he was talking about you. So too was Martin Luther when he declared, "No sin is perceived" when God looks on us! The author awakened to these and other revolutionary truths when struggling with an eating disorder, and came to realize we are not subject to compulsive behaviors because the addict died with Christ on the Cross! Drawing on a rich vein of wisdom throughout the ages, this book anchors you in immortal love and kindly invites you, as described by The San Franciso Review of Books, to "breathe freedom," to return to that state of innocence bestowed on Adam and Eve before the commandment came, “Do not…” "There is nothing you can do to avert God's loving disposition towards you nor his plans to prosper you, to give you hope and a future. So steadfast and unshakeable is he in his love for you that you could never succeed in deterring him. So set your heart at rest!" Here is a warm hug of support and reassurance, a testament to God's healing power, a work of vast literary achievement. Above all, it is an embrace of infinite love. "A majestic flow of words." Amy's Bookshelf Reviews "Shares that bliss of freedom of conscience in everything we do. He is one of our treasured spiritual guides—a man who cares deeply about setting us free from the unnecessary restrictions imposed on us, as well as those that are self-imposed! Highly Recommended."

      Sin is Unattainable! (Author's Narration) What if it were impossible to sin? What if all notion of "good" and "evil" were banished from our choices? What if the will of God were so embedded into our spiritual DNA that his point of view has become our point of view, his will our will? Then what freedoms would ensue! Well, all of this is true! In this groundbreaking work of rigorous, Bible-centered analysis, the author spells out the full extent of Christ's liberation in our lives, from how we think, feel, and act, to what we do with our bodies and with whom! Fear, worry, and condemnation are driven out, and in their place reign love and grace, "the unmerited favor of God". Meanwhile, this book draws on great thinkers and writers of the ages: the Christian storytellers ranging from C.S. Lewis to John Bunyan; the poets from Dante to Shakespeare; and the mystics from St. John of the Cross to Oswald Chambers. The result is a milestone of literature and liberation, a blueprint for transformation, a love letter in the service of peace and joy. "A majestic flow of words."

      A Courtroom Drama Played Out in Heaven (Author's Narration) "We are not unaware of the devil's schemes," wrote the apostle Paul. What are they? Masquerading as an angel of righteousness, accusing the faithful, and of course being the father of lies. Satan presents his evidence against us in the court of Heaven, summons his witnesses, and cites chapter and verse to condemn us. But we have an advocate in Heaven, our friend, our intercessor, and witness for the defence. How will this courtroom drama play out? With brilliant analysis and lively wit, this book takes a deep dive into Biblical truth, while drawing on great thinkers of the ages, among them Shakespeare, Benjamin Franklin, Oscar Wilde, Tolkien, and even Monty Python! It also identifies Satan's servants in our earthly institutions of power and calls out their abuses of that power. You will be entertained, enlightened, and above all, empowered by this literary and theological triumph. "A majestic flow of words."
