Moved by Him
Welcome to Moved by Him Podcast, created for the woman of faith who is craving conversation at the intersection of where Jesus, wellness, and culture meet. Learn to pray, worship, and seek the Word of God for answers that spiritually equip you to navigate the chaos and confusion of the fitness and nutrition world. As we read in 1 Timothy 4:8, “For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.” With our eyes fixed on eternity, let’s bring Jesus into our wellness journey and stand up against deception. We are Moved by Him!

We’ve Made Science an Idol at the Expense of Common Sense (+ Thoughts on the Red 3 Ban)
Science is a beautiful thing. God created it. BUT in many circumstances we obsess over the science, at the expense of using our common sense to make decisions for the health of our families. Listening to eight podcasts, reading a book or two, and pulling all the research articles for any given health matter simply isn’t realistic for most of us. If you are a hobbyist data digger, like myself, then by all means go for it! But in most circumstances we need to lean more heavily into the discernment of the Holy Spirit and the reality of common sense.
When Jesus left His disciples to go be with the Father, He promised us the greatest helper of all… the Holy Spirit! May we recognize the power of knowledge that the Holy Spirit offers us and may we also lean into the gut instincts that God gave us as well.
In this episode we discuss finding the right approach to making health decisions for your family and we also dive into the recent red dye 3 ban. I share an overview of the reason for the recent ban and my thoughts on the matter.
