Not many people can believe this about me, but I used to be very obese. In fact, I even have the stretch marks to prove it. Although my time as an obese man was relatively short (maybe 3-4 years cumulatively), it was long enough for me to know how badly people are physically, mentally and emotionally limited by this very, very avoidable problem.
Because of this experience that I've had, I am truly saddened by the new study that came...
On February 8th, something very unusual happened in Kentucky. Students at the small Christian college- Asbury University in Wilmore (which is just outside of Lexington), came to their regularly scheduled 50-minute chapel service at 10am...and it has been going nonstop ever since. 24 hours a day!

When I began to exercise 24 1/2 years ago, I did so because I wanted my body to change. I was sick with cancer, weak and debilitated from chemo, tremendously overweight, and 100% committed to changing those things.

22 days ago, much of the nation was captivated by the shocking and horrific story of what happened to Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin.

Today though I don't want to talk...
Hey my friend! Merry Christmas!
Today is a day that seems to mean something a little different to everyone. For some it means family and friends, for others it means gifts, for others it means heartache and pain, and for others it means nothing. As you likely know though, the real meaning of Christ-mas is to acknowledge and celebrate the birth of Jesus!
Although the celebration of Jesus' birth on December 25th only dates back to the...
Two days ago, a single event captured the attention of people from every nation on the earth. The World Cup Final between Argentina and France is estimated to have had over 1,150,000,000 people watching it. Is that crazy or what?!
The game was not your average World Cup Final either, it is being called the greatest final in history.
The game was largely a showdown between two absolute superstars of the sport- Lionel Messi of Argentina...
