Your physical health is critical to the calling God has for your life. Sadly, many in the church have neglected their wellness to the detriment of God’s purposes for them. David Bush joins Gary Wilkerson on the podcast today to discuss the importance of stewarding our bodies well so that we can love God and others with all of our strength.
