Is it okay to pursue physical transformation as a Christian? Are you bold and humble to admit that your reason for working out is because you desire physical transformation? This is a topic some of us don’t like to bring up as Christ followers. We talk about that in today’s episode.

Put your earbuds on, lace up your walking shoes, and let’s hear what God has to say about this!

Contentment in Christ,

Jaclyn

   (Subject line: Coaching with Jaclyn OR Coaching Menu)
   
   
2. Expect my email for next steps.

NOT SURE IF YOU WANT TO COACH WITH ME? Here are just some of the reasons why women seek my services:

• Want to know how to approach health and fitness in a God-centered way
  
  
• Desire to reshape their mind and heart attitude BECAUSE OF past beliefs, diets, participation in challenges, being surrounded by others who center their journey around how they look, etc.
  
  
• Want to take a faith-based approach in their health journey
  • INSTEAD OF what they were taught (by personal trainers, etc.) whose main focus is on the outward appearance/aesthetics and/or working towards performance-based results
    
    
• Tired of diets, worldly tips and tricks, counting calories, and macros
  
  
• Want to give attention to spiritual heart matters versus physical matters. Outward appearances are no longer their priority.
  
  
• Feel spiritually bankrupt when it comes to fitness and food approaches

⭐️-----------------⭐️

REFLECTION QUESTIONS:

• Is it okay to desire physical transformation?
  In what ways will my body shape make me holier (not happier)?
  
  
• Can you describe how changing your body shape will draw you closer to the plans Jesus has for you? OR will it block or prevent me from growing in His Grace and truth?
  
  
• Did I pray about it?

⭐️-----------------⭐️

BIBLE VERSES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

• Jeremiah 17:9 “The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?
  
  
• Psalm 139:23-24 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. 24 Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.
  
  
• 1 John 2:15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
  
  
• John 13:35 By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
