Why Would a Christian Exercise?

David Mathis explores why physical exercise matters for Christians in light of God's sovereignty and the gospel. He introduces Adoniram Judson, one of America's most significant figures, who was the nation's first commissioned missionary and spent nearly 40 years in Burma. Judson's life demonstrates how physical health and endurance enabled him to persevere in missionary work and kingdom purpose. Mathis connects the physical discipline of exercise to the broader spiritual realities of God's rule over all things. Steward your physical body as part of your overall commitment to God's purposes in the world. Topics: Christian exercise, Physical health, Missions, Endurance, Stewardship
