61. Matt Gay on Bringing Fitness to the Church

Alex had the chance to sit down with Matt Gay, the founder of FIT Church United to hear his story! Matt realized early on that health and faith are connected, and decided to do something about. Which is how he started FIT Church United. 

Their mission is to make good health practices a standard component of American church culture, while demonstrating the love of Christ through fitness-based events to people who would likely never step foot in a church.

Matt's story and work is an inspiration. We believe you will find value in the message they are bringing and can learn from the things Matt is doing in his personal life to steward his health well. 

You can expect to hear more on:

• How Matt got started in fitness
• How that led him to start FIT Church United and write his book "FIT Church"
• What it means to see your body as a temple
• How we can learn more about health through scripture
• Their desire to help the local church
• What rhythms he does consistently to live the truly healthy life Jesus offers
