You may know how physically fit you are but what’s your level of spiritual fitness? When was the last time you assessed that?

Have you ever hoped that you had more inner strength to bring about a behavior change you’ve desired? Do you wish you could be more closely connected to God? Want to know more about the spirituality and health connection?

What do you spend your day thinking about? Is your thought life helping you to be healthy or unhealthy? What guidance does the Bible give us on this topic?

Life is full of choices we must make on a daily basis. Are you aware of the blessings you can have when you choose God’s way? Where would you turn in the Bible to read about the benefits of being obedient to God’s principles?

When personal trainers prescribe exercises for their clients to improve their physical fitness level, they must have an understanding of the science behind the exercise prescription. To understand the “science” behind improving our spiritual health and how God desires to be loved, we must read the Bible, God’s instruction manual for our life.

Spiritual exercise might be defined as any intentional behavior that helps one become more like God, draw closer to Him, know Him better or that follows the principles or commandments of God.
