How is First Place different from other weight-management programs? |
| |
|
|
| Luke 2:52 teaches
that we are four-sided people: spiritual, physical, mental and emotional.
First Place is unique in that it deals with the fact that God views our
bodies as His temple and cares about the condition of each part of us. His
concern for us is just as important as losing weight (physical),
practicing accountability to others (mental), or addressing the reasons
(emotional needs) why we gain excess weight (emotional). |
