There is a statistic that shows those who attend church or a Bible study at least once a week are 50% more likely to be obese than those who do not attend. Food is not sin. Eating a piece of pie is no more a sin than drinking a glass of wine. The abuse and overindulgence is the sin. Life is a full contact sport. Whether it is a cold, a disease, a bruise, broken bone, a divorce, lost job, a shoe shopping addiction, gossip or any spiritual attack… we will weather the storms of life much better (spiritual and physical) when we are spiritually and physically fit (Christ Fit). We will soar much higher on the updrafts of life when we are Christ Fit. Christ Fit is not about having a six pack mid section. It’s about being fit for life. It’s about being able to function and play with kids. It’s about being able to grow old and carry you own groceries. It’s about being a good steward of our bodies so that we can be of service to God in whatever he calls us to do. Everybody struggles and deals with something. Even if it’s not food the Christ Fit Fusion journal addresses. When you address the health and fitness of your spiritual life the other elements of life become easier to manage. (Matt 6:33 – Seek first the kingdom of God and everything else will! be added to you…)
