233. Health According to God: What Does The Bible Really Say About Physical Fitness?


Listen Later

The average American man carries 28% body fat—a level the American Council on Exercise considers obese. Add to that the sobering reality that heart disease has held the title of the nation’s #1 killer for decades, with cancer close behind, and you have to wonder: how can the richest nation in history be so unhealthy?

Here’s the kicker—at least one-third of heart disease deaths are preventable, and the #1 lifestyle link to certain cancers is something as avoidable as tobacco use. In other words, much of this suffering isn’t inevitable… it’s a choice.

But in a world overflowing with opinions about what it means to be “healthy,” what does God actually say? In this episode, Nick and Josh unpack the Bible’s perspective on health, explore the idea of stewardship over our bodies, and share practical steps for living it out.

Get ready for a conversation that doesn’t just challenge what you believe about health—but why you believe it.
