Lädt ... First Place 4 Health: Discover a New Way to Healthy Living (2008. Auflage)von Carole Lewis (Autor), Marcus Brotherton (Autor)First Place 4 Health, Carole Lewis In the past I have read other Christian weight loss books and reviewed weight loss/exercise programs. As I do not struggle with a weight issue I quickly lose interest in the program. First Place 4 Health is completely different. It’s focus is on Matthew 6:33, Seek Ye first the Kingdom of God. Carole Lewis states on page 97, “ First Place is all about seeking God before anything else.” In fact the majority of the first half of this book talks more about changing one’s mindset than shedding pounds. It puts great emphasis on serving Christ, seeking His kingdom, becoming His friend through prayer and bible study, and exposing the root problem of your weight issue. It is pointed out more than once that weight will be shed as a secondary thing when all areas of your life are balanced (spiritual, emotional, and physical). This being done by correcting the spiritual aspects first which will cause a heart and mind change thus resulting in a life style change that lasts. I have really enjoyed the book and can not wait to incorporate the program into my own home. I have not seen a program like this before. This book is a great encouragement for those looking to lose weight, or just to start living a more balanced and healthy life. Thank you regal publishing for providing this review copy. |
