Spiritual Fitness

Looking forward to Sunday and trust you are having a great week.  This Sunday we are focused on spiritual fitness.  I was going to title the message "Spiritual Disciplines" but decided to change it to "Spiritual Fitness".  1 Timothy 4:7-8 says, “. . . Train yourself to be godly.  For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.”

Our culture is obsessed with physical fitness.  Americans spend upwards of 60 billion dollars on gym memberships, diet plans, and exercise plans.  No doubt about it -- physical health is important.  But increasingly, medical science is awakening to the reality that emotional, mental, and spiritual health is just as important, if not more important than physical health.  So the big question this week is "What are you doing to get in shape spiritually?  I hope you will give it some thought and then join us Sunday as we celebrate the gift of Jesus in our lives and take three steps towards spiritual fitness.  See you at the ARC (9:30 and 10:15 AM).
