Living Fit by Ronnie W, Floyd

Every day we get up and we often take life for granted, just living life the best we can without thought to how God wants us to live to be healthy. Living Fit: Make Your Life Count by Pursuing a Healthy You by Ronnie Floyd is written for the Christian who wants to live healthy in all areas of their life.

Living Fit focuses on five elements of a healthy life and the book is divided into five sections of four chapters each. They include Living Fit Spiritually, Physically, Relationally, Financially and Emotionally. In each section, Floyd expounds on how to live your best Christian life in each area through the use of Scripture and life examples.

I think Living Fit would be a great book for a new Christian. In this book, Floyd gives a lot of advice on living life from the Christian perspective. Floyd is senior pastor of Cross Church in Northwest Arkansas. As a result of his view as a pastor, I think this book is quite heavy on living the Christian life spiritually and less heavy on living healthy from a physical body perspective. He does share how to do that, but not in great detail. He also gives some solid advice from Dave Ramsey on living a healthy life financially. As a whole, I didn't find the book to be too well rounded if you are looking for a holistic health book. Much of what he shared, I already knew. I enjoyed the book as a pleasant read and he refreshed my spirit a little, but it didn't offer me many fresh ideas. However, it does offer great advice for the baby Christian on living life for God. I would recommend Living Fit best for that purpose.

I received this book from Lifeway/Broadman and Holman Publishing Group. I was not required to write a positive review.
