The Wholly Life Podcast

We can begin to love our bodies now, we can begin with learning about what God says about our bodies, and we can begin with gratitude. If you've been feeling the tug to stop giving in to the toxic body culture of hating our bodies and seeing our bodies as not good enough, then this message is for you🫶🏽. There might already be some harmful behaviors you might be already doing, what God’s word says, and what can help you shift from unhealthy patterns.

Regardless of where you find yourself on this journey in aging and however it may look like for you, know that there is no condemnation, but grace, love and an invitation to explore the posture of our hearts. Jesus loves and cherishes you just as you are. God sees beyond our wrinkles and gray hairs as we age, and his word is full of goodness and wisdom to help us navigate the aging journey. I pray this conversation with my friend Violet Solis encourages you and leads you to honest conversations with the Lord about your journey of aging with grace.
