    Your Body Is a Temple, Not an Idol: How to Honor Your Health Without Worshiping It

    In a culture that constantly pushes us toward extremes—either ignoring our health or obsessing over it—it’s easy to lose sight of what God actually calls us to do with our bodies. In this powerful, truth-filled episode of The Health Hub Podcast, we unpack what it really means to live out 1 Corinthians 6:19–20: “Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you... You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.” We’ll explore: What it biblically means that your body is a temple How to recognize when care becomes control—and when health becomes an idol Five ways to honor your body without making it your identity Why rest, nourishment, movement, and mindset all play a role in stewardship How to practice discernment in the content you consume on social media How to shift your focus from self-perfection to Christ-centered purpose This is not another podcast about diet trends or workout routines. This is a conversation about freedom, wholeness, and seeing your health as a way to worship God—not yourself. If you’ve ever struggled with body image, food guilt, fitness obsession, or feeling “not enough,” this episode will meet you with truth, grace, and practical encouragement. — 🎧 Be sure to subscribe and leave a review if this message speaks to your heart.📌 Ready to pursue health without idolatry?
