Wise Feasting: Temperance or Tradition?

Wise Feasting: Temperance or Tradition?

As the 2025 holiday season steamrolls over us, many of us feel the tension between our desire to celebrate the traditions and exercise self-control in a culture that revels in caloric excess at every turn.

Wise Feasting: Temperance or Tradition? is a powerful, eye-opening presentation designed to help you rise above the noise, reclaim your health, and embrace a God-centered approach to choosing nourishing food, practicing self-control, and enjoying traditional celebrations.

What This Presentation Is About

This presentation is about helping you to see the world around you from a new perspective so that you are empowered to make better, wiser choices as you navigate the holiday season fraught with calorie-dense indulgences.

Health coach and wellness speaker Sam Benavides will share his knowledge and experience on why human beings naturally crave healthy food, and why our modern society constantly pulls us in the opposite direction.

You’ll be welcomed into an honest, practical, and spiritually grounded conversation about how to wisely navigate this season of decadent food, family traditions, and cultural pressure.

Sam’s personal experience with cultural pressures will invite you to examine your own tug-of-war between temperance and tradition.
