Hey men, Barry and I both have conflicts tonight so no zoom. Back on schedule next week. Please message us if there are topics you would like to discuss.

Why is it that I’ve been a Christian & in the church the majority of my life & never once have I heard a sermon on gluttony? (Until Pastor Aaron) I feel like overall many churches & really Christians/believers are talking very very little about how spiritual disciplines carry over into health habits & how intertwined they are. I don’t feel it’s shared enough that over indulgence, gluttony, sugar & food addition, self image issues, chronic illness, it’s not just a health issue of the body it’s a spiritual war. The enemy thrives in our food & fitness industry & it’s one of his sneaky disgusting ways of crushing spirits, weakening bodies, & instilling poor relationship with Gods creation: the temples He’s given us to house His spirit. Why are we not talking about this more? Why is health & fitness considered such a vain thing in the church when literally the body houses the Holy Spirit & idk about you but I believe my Father deserves a healthy strong dwelling place to live. I may be crazy. I may sound stupid. But I know the enemy is not; he knows what he’s doing. he’s killing off more bodies, more confidence, more strength, and more spirits than yall realize and he’s doing it through food. Food & lack of movement. It’s time to wake up. I’ll be the crazy one. But I’ll also be the one who helps my brothers & sisters in Christ beat this spiritual battle of gluttony, lack of discipline, self loathing, sloth like behavior, and hating one of the most beautiful creations God has given us; our bodies. Wake up. Call the enemy out. he no longer gets to have this kind of power over not just your body but your spirit!

We needed to move the council call up an hour so we will be starting at 6pm central tonight! See you all on there!
