This week at Westmark Church, we continue our series on the Seven Deadly Sins with a heart-level look at gluttony.

Gluttony is not merely about eating too much. It is about being ruled by appetite. In Philippians 3:17–21, Paul warns about those whose “god is their belly,” showing us that appetite can become a master when food becomes more than food — a refuge, reward, medication, or source of satisfaction.

In this sermon, Pastor Noah Tyler looks at how gluttony can show up through indulgence, control, comfort eating, emotional distraction, and the search for satisfaction apart from God. But the gospel gives us a better hope: our citizenship is in heaven, Christ is transforming our lowly bodies, and the Spirit teaches us self-control.

We’ll also consider how the practice of fasting trains our hearts to say no to lesser satisfactions so we can hunger more deeply for Jesus, the Bread of Life.
