Just Say "No"

Titus 2:11-14 (New International Version)

11For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. 12It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13while we wait for the blessed hope—the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.

Moving Forward Together -Week 2 Step by Step

for which God has called me heavenward
in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 3:14

Not just about Weight Loss

"Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well." Matthew 6:33

This is the foundation which the First Place 4 Health Bible study program was founded. First Place can ..."help you create balance in the four core areas of your life - emotional, spiritual, mental and physical. The results? Weight loss and total health from the inside out!"

For me, this program has not been about my weight its been about balance in my whole being. Searching the scriptures to gain the wisdom and knowledge God wants me to have in order to focus on Him, His plans, and to concentrate on how to get others facing in the same direction. There are several aspects to our lives and God may be dealing with you on your emotions, or your physical well being or another area. That's what is so great about this program, you can, with God's help, improve in that one area only or all the areas at once. The program is designed to be tailored to your needs and what God is wanting to bring out to either get rid of or to bring glory to His name.

Whatever your reason for joining First Place 4 Health, remember you are not alone, and with God all things are possible.
