What should you pack? How do you cook food? Should you go with expert campers or strike out on your own? Our guests have experience pitching tents, sitting by campfires, and seeing the stars at night \u2014 but they all consider themselves \u201caverage\u201d campers in ability and know-how.

He shares scriptural reasoning for prioritizing movement as not only \u201ctaking care of your temple\u201d but as an act of worship. He also tells the story of being convicted on this topic, how he started adding fitness to his life, and how staying active helps your body, brain and spirit.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/donate.focusonthefamily.com\/don-boundless-2025-08-07?refcd=2332603&amp;utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_medium=referrer&amp;utm_campaign=boundless\"><b><i>A Little Theology of Exercise: Enjoying Christ in Body and Soul<\/i><\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Inbox: Should You Date a Coworker?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is it a good idea to date a work colleague?
