This was a really quick read that helped you shift your perspective on exercise from something we have to do to honor our bodies to something we get to do to honor God. Not only was exercise modeled by Jesus and the disciples, but it’s important on many facets. It helps to enhance our minds, which allows us to deepen our spiritual knowledge. It also strengthens us to better serve others. This was a very introspective read!

A good overview on how we should view our bodies as vessels for His glory. The concepts and scriptures discussed often extended to more than just exercise, but nutrition and other topics as well. I found it to be helpful.

Every time I start to write a review for this great little book, I keep getting off track wanting to tell you what a gift from the Lord exercise has become for me in the last year or two. That’s another story for another day, but suffice it to say that David Mathis has beautifully summed up what I want everyone to know! God is pro-body, and in his great wisdom designed our bodies to function best when we are taking care of them holistically. Moving our bodies is good not only for our physical health, but for our mental and spiritual health too.

If you’d like some positive motivation to get moving without shame, pick up this little book and be encouraged.

Many thanks to Netgalley and Crossway for the advanced review copy. All opinions are my own.
