Manage episode 494563773 series 3449023
How should couples talk about health, body image, and physical changes over time without shaming or hurting one another? In this episode of More Thann Roommates, Derek, Gabrielle, and Scott have an authentic, biblical, and practical conversation about pursuing health and wellness in marriage, and why honoring God with your body matters more than chasing perfection or appearances.
Scriptures:
1 Cor 10:31
1 Cor 6:19-20
Gen 2:24
PR 21:9
1 Pet 3:15
Gal 6:1
Questions to Discuss:
1. What was your family’s view of health growing up? How does that influence your habits today?
2. Why do you think it’s hard for most couples to discuss wellness, eating, exercise, etc…?
3. What is the goal of your desires to pursue health and wellness?
4. How can you and your spouse help other to be healthy? How could we make this a shared pursuit—meals, walks, fitness, prayer—for the sake of unity and companionship?
