“We now have a critical mass available in which to generate a Gospel of Fitness with the best insights from all the helping professions.”
“The Gospel of Fitness is not a replacement for the traditional Gospel of the Newer Testament. Nor is it yet a formal theology. It has elements of both, however, for it is “good news” in a health-challenged society. And its rationale is based upon responsible disciplines of body-mind-spirit, respect for each other, and ecological stewardship.”
“For body- mind-spirit fitness is not about diet fads, exercise gimmicks, marathons, or beauty. Rather, it is about being the best that we can be.”
These quotes are taken from an article by G. Lloyd Rediger that appears in a column on his site. As it is not a short article, you may want to set aside time to read this when you can appreciate Rediger’s insight and wisdom.
Have an awesome day!
Which types of exercise are there in Gospel and how we can fit our body with these exercises?
Towards the bottom of the Home page only website I have this verse:
“Spend your time and energy in training yourself for spiritual fitness. Physical exercise has some value, but spiritual exercise is much more important for it promises a reward in both this life and the next. This is true and everyone should accept it.” 1 Timothy 4:7-9 (New Living Translation – First Edition)
