Introduction (with video)

Before you begin:

I am excited that you want to get stronger physically and spiritually. Our Reignite Study  will share with you a totally new approach to health. An approach that at times seems counter-cultural.

Have you ever used the wrong kind of marker on a whiteboard? You go to erase what you wrote, but because you used the wrong marker, it won’t wipe clean. You might be coming into this study with a bit of the wrong marker on you. You have preconceived notions as to what you need to do to reach your fitness goals. Words like diet, skinny, scale, size… have always been part of your fitness plan. It might not be easy, but I am going to try and wipe away these misconceptions and replace them with truth.

ReIgnite will guide you down the path to better health in a way you’ve never traveled.

We all come into this study at different places on our journey to better health. You might be satisfied with your physical fitness, but long for peace and joy that you hope will come when you are spiritually healthier. Or you might feel your relationship with God is in a great place, but you know that you are not taking care of the body He gave you. You lack the stamina and strength needed to love and serve others.

Or you might be thinking, “I don’t even know if I believe in God. I’m not concerned about being ‘spiritually healthy’, but I do know that my stress level is out of control and I need to do something about it.” If that’s you, I’m so glad we will be going through this 12-week study together. For the first 40 years of my life, I didn’t have faith. I didn’t even think about God. I know what it feels like to think, “How can a God, if there even is one, help me in life? How can He possibly help me to reach my fitness goals?”

No matter where you are at physically and spiritually, I believe you will be changed. Please keep your heart and mind open to what God has to say to you. He has a plan for your life, and He wants you to live life to the fullest. He wants your body to “glow with health”!
