Spirit Body Soul Self Control: A Workbook to Help Disciples of Jesus Mature (Part 2: Body Edition)

Learn to see yourself through God’s eyes and discover the freedom of living from a healthy, whole, and loved identity.Many Christians serve, give, and sacrifice for others while carrying quiet battles inside, things like shame, insecurity, exhaustion, or the belief that they are “not enough.” Self Control of the Body is the second book in the Spirit Body Soul series, and it invites you into a critical part of discipleship: learning to love yourself the way God loves you.This is not a book about fitness trends or quick fixes. It is a deeply biblical, emotionally insightful guide that helps you develop a healthy relationship with your identity, your habits, your emotions, and your physical body.

When you understand who God created you to be, self control becomes a path toward wholeness, never punishment or perfectionism.In this book, you will discover how to:Replace shame and self-loathing with a biblical sense of worthIdentify and dismantle destructive self-beliefsBreak free from people-pleasing and live from overflow, not emptinessCare for your physical body as God’s creationHeal emotional wounds that shape unhealthy habitsEstablish healthy boundaries that protect your peacePractice embodied spiritual disciplines like breathwork, meditation, and restReflection questions throughout help you connect truth to your lived experience.You cannot love your neighbor as yourself if you do not first understand how God loves you.
