The Joyful Health Show: A Non-Diet Wellness Podcast for Christians

Episode 95: “Temple of the Holy Spirit” Misuse in Wellness Culture with Anna Marie Long, RD and Stephanie Brown, CPT


Listen Later

In this episode of the Joyful Health Show Kasey interviews dietitian and eating disorder specialist Anna Marie Long together with her co-author of Nourished to Flourish Stephanie Brown, a personal trainer and soon to be dietitian about wellness culture’s misuse of the scriptural phase “the temple of the Holy Spirit.” 

In This Episode We Discuss:
  1. The ways in which wellness culture negatively twists “your body is a temple”  and why it matters
  2. How to recognize when scripture is being twisted to fit wellness culture’s narrative
  3. What does it mean to care for our bodies as a temple without making it an idol
  4. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 encourages us, “Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.”  As you meditate on this and listen to this episode, we pray you will discover what is truly means to glorify God in your body, not allowing the temple of God which is your body to become a place where wellness culture can buy and sell influence, but a house of prayer (Matthew 21:12), and a conduit of love and joy!
