Welcome to what’s Eating Erica Jacobs!
This is a faith-based, recovery-focused exploration into what it means to create, renew and restore this world, through hard conversations, parable and more than a few curse words.

This podcast is NOT instructions for how to heal afflictions and hurts, but a journey through recovering in real-time. I am no expert, and I am not on the other side of addiction, but I know there is a way we can heal and thrive in the presence of each other. I know that by being ruthlessly honest in our search for freedom, and by sharing our experience with each other, we can cultivate a reality that is wired with faith, strength and balls.

This podcast will include parable, story telling, poetry and conversations & interviews with real people who want what you want--the peace and grace to participate in the ongoing creation of the world in ways that are liberating and meaningful.

I'm grateful you are here! Let's heal, let's know God a bit better, and let's for sure say some swear words sometimes!

As I was putting an end to the normalization of abuse and lack of accountability in my own relationships, our country was witnessing the repercussions of that normalization.  I pray that as I continue re-sensitizing myself to what is wrong, cruel and in violation of humanity, that I am abl...
