Holy Hunger: A Woman's Journey from Food Addiction to Spiritual Fulfillment
Author: Margaret Bullitt-Jonas
Overview
In this eloquent and courageous memoir, Margaret Bullitt-Jonas shares her struggle with food addiction and the deeper search for spiritual nourishment. Raised in a household overshadowed by her father’s alcoholism and her mother’s emotional distance, Margaret’s childhood was marked by strict demands for excellence, poise, and control. These pressures drove her into secret binges—cream pies, pancakes, and compulsive overeating that sometimes led to staggering weight gains in just days.
When her family finally intervened with her father’s addiction, Margaret recognized her own compulsions and began the difficult but transformative journey of recovery. What she discovered was that beneath her hunger for food lay an even deeper hunger for meaning, connection, and God.
Holy Hunger is a moving account of compulsion, healing, and the power of faith to transform despair into spiritual fulfillment.
