Divine Dining
by Janet K. Brown
365 Devotions to Guide You
to Healthier Weight & Abundant Wellness
Janet K. Brown lost ninety-five pounds and has stayed trim for 17 years. While struggling with
compulsive eating and depression she found her library incomplete when she searched for a book
that combined a twelve-step approach with biblical support. Janet says the biggest secret to
success is giving up your will and letting God do it through you. Her daily lessons are invaluable
in helping anyone struggling with weight to find the strength and motivation to reach abundant health.
What can you expect in Divine Dining?
Strong will power fuels compulsive overeating and causes weight gain.
We pray for God to help, to stop the cravings, to take away the desire
to overeat. Nothing lasts. We rise from our knees to try another diet,
to do it ourselves. Our will power to succeed remains for days or months,
but then we regain the weight, plus some. Nothing works until we give up
trying and tell God that if He doesn't heal us, we're doomed.
This book of devotions teaches principles from the author's weight loss journey,
combining a twelve-step approach with drawing closer to Christ and allowing Him
to take His rightful place in your life. It's a life-saving and hope-giving toolbox.
Here's a BlogTalkRadio interview of Janet by Literally Speaking!
Praise for Divine Dining
I love this book by Janet Brown. As I read the book, there are so many times I've said . . . I'm
not alone!! Thank you for writing such an amazing devotional that talks about your struggles
but also about your faith. I'm thankful I'm not alone in my journey to be a better me!!

For those of us that struggle with compulsive eating, this book is a reflection of our thoughts,
situations, and struggles. But also with a soul soothing promise of help, understanding, and in
the end wisdom. I would definitely recommend this book!
~ Julia
I received my copy of Janet K. Brown's new publication Divine Dining just yesterday. It's
written as a book of daily devotions designed to help those of us who struggle with weight
issues. I've read the devotions up to the current date and have had to force myself not to
read ahead.
Janet successfully lost 95 pounds over seventeen years ago following a struggle with herself,
God, and life in general. Food controlled her. I know that feeling. She not only shares
relevant scripture and a prayer each day she also shares real-life examples of her conquest.
One entry discusses how she worked so very hard for her church and didn't receive the
recognition others who did less received. I've been in that exact position.
Divine Dining is faith based and is used along with the 12 step program of Overeaters Anonymous.
I believe readers who don't have a strong relationship with the Lord will find themselves drawn
closer in large steps or tiny increments. I also believe non-believers could benefit from the
human struggle and frailty shared in Janet's personal anecdotes. I highly recommend Divine Dining
to anyone who is overweight, obese, or controlled by food issues.
~ Winona Bennett Cross
I have just started reading this daily but it seems to have the verse I need each day so far.
I have read another book by this author and enjoyed it very much too.
~ Margaret Tressler
These aren't just words—the author lived it. The support, encouragement and Godly wisdom
needed to finally win the battle! I can't wait to finish it.
~ Lillian K. Duncan
