Bodily training is only of little profit, but godliness is profitable for all things, since it holds promise for the present life & also for the life to come...
Incredibly thankful for this reality....I once was dead, but have been made alive, NOT because of anything I've done, BUT because of Christ!
And...this can be true for anyone who repents and follows Christ.
Colossians 2:13-14 ESV
[13] And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, [14] by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.

Here is the structural problem. Magnesium, taurine, vitamin D, and berberine cannot be patented. No company will spend hundreds of millions on a Phase III trial it cannot recoup.
The absence of a funded trial is not the absence of evidence. It is the absence of profit.
Enough.
(Yes, we have a very active bubble here who will push back- go for it... But there are millions who are silent, reading this, and feel inadequate, who need to see this)
You walked this morning. Enough.
You didn’t hit ten thousand steps. You hit seven, and you took the stairs twice because the elevator felt too easy. Enough.
You lift twice a week. Not five times. Not with a coach filming your bar speed. Twice, with intent, and you add a little weight when the old weight stops being hard. Enough.
You don’t track your HRV. You notice when you’re flat, and you go easy that day. Enough.
You take vitamin D and creatine. The other eleven bottles stay on the influencer’s shelf, where the evidence left them. Enough.
You don’t own a cold plunge, a red-light panel, or a ring that scores your sleep. You go to bed at a reasonable hour in a cool, dark room, and most mornings you wake up feeling like yourself. Enough.
Most of your easy efforts are actually easy. Once in a while, you go hard enough that talking gets difficult. Enough.
You can carry the groceries up two flights and still finish the sentence you started. Enough.
There’s a second way to interpret this word, and it has nothing to do with measurement. It’s the one you say to the noise that is social media advice.
The post telling you you’re already behind. The protocol that replaced last month’s protocol. The man half your age is explaining what your hormones are doing. The feeling, manufactured and sold to you on purpose, that whatever you’re doing for your body, it isn’t sufficient and never will be.
ENOUGH.
You are allowed to do the few things that work, do them for decades, and stop apologizing for the things you skipped. The fundamentals are not a lesser version of health. They are healthy. Everything else is garnish.
Enough isn’t a white flag. It’s the line. Learn to say it both ways... "this is sufficient", and that’s quite enough now — and then… most of the anxiety this industry runs on has nowhere left to stand.
@SenRonJohnson So proud that in ~1 week when we move from MN to WI I'll be able to call you my US Senator. Thanks for all your work and for standing for truth.
If we permit a great forgetting, we enable and functionally endorse the same behavior in the future. Senator Ron Johnson is one of the only people in federal leadership willing to reject that forgetting. Here is what he has documented, and what the legacy media will not touch. 🧵
He took a rainbow stitched onto a San Francisco Giants cap and placed beside it the first Word God ever spoke over that sign. Genesis 9:11-16.
That was enough for the league to warn them to not write a Bible verse on the pride hat again. A covenant became an offense.
MLB could point to the uniform rule and maybe the rule was clear enough. Still, everyone knew the ink was not the real scandal. The scandal was Genesis.
A verse from the first book of the Bible appeared beside a rainbow and suddenly the old story came walking into the modern room. God had spoken first..that was the wound. Before it was claimed by a movement, it was placed there by mercy.
Landen Roupp said there was no hate in it. He said the rainbow is a symbol of God’s covenant and as a believer he wanted to stand firm. Good!
There are times when standing firm looks less like shouting from a platform and more like refusing to vanish under a hat. Writing the verse in ink was small a small thing. The witness was not.
I admire him. He could have worn the cap and said nothing, carried his convictions quietly back to the clubhouse. Instead, he wrote Genesis 9 beside the rainbow. It was not a spectacle. It was a confession.
To understand why, we have to leave the ballpark and walk back into the soaked world of Genesis 9. God speaks as the world was still wet with judgment when God blessed Noah.
He gave Noah’s family the earth. He sent them out to fill it and placed a holy fence around human life and said, in effect, “Do not treat people like animals. They bear My image.”
Every person carries that mark. The baby in the womb and the old man in the nursing home. The angry critic online and the confused soul wrapped in a flag. Every one of them lives beneath the hand of the God who made them.
Christian courage can never be cruel because every person bears God’s image. Mercy still hangs over this world and sinners still have time to come home.
Then God lifted His sign into the clouds.“ I have set my bow in the cloud,” He says, “and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between me and the earth” (Genesis 9:13).
The word is bow. That is easy to miss because we have turned the rainbow into greeting-card weather with soft colors after rain. Scripture’s bow is often a weapon. It belongs in the hand of a warrior. Scripture’s bow is often a weapon, bent with judgment, strung with arrows, aimed by wrath.
In Genesis 9, God hangs the bow in the clouds with no arrow in it.
Look at that again. The bow is there, but the string is quiet. The storm has spent itself. Sunlight breaks through the wet air. Color bends across the sky and creation receives a sermon without a single human word. God remembers. He keeps His promise. The world deserves judgment, yet mercy still hangs over our heads. The rainbow is a sermon.
Long before flags, merchandise, corporate campaigns, political speeches, or team uniforms, God placed the rainbow above a guilty world and made it preach patience.
That is why Genesis 9 belongs in this conversation. Christians do not need cruelty to speak clearly. Sneering never strengthens truth. When believers say the rainbow belongs to God, we are saying more than “our symbol came first.” We are saying the world is still being held together by the promise of a holy God who gives sinners time to repent.
The rainbow is beautiful because mercy is beautiful.
It also warns because mercy delayed carries a clock inside it. Peter tells us the Lord is patient and calls sinners to repentance. The same God who set His bow in the clouds has appointed a day when every mouth will close and every knee will bow.
That makes the cross shine brighter. At Calvary, judgment did not stay in the distance. It landed as the arrow we deserved struck the Son of God. Christ stood beneath the wrath sinners earned and mercy flowed from His wounds. Genesis 9 gives us the empty bow in the clouds. Golgotha gives us the Savior on the tree.
So yes, be thankful for these players. Be thankful for men who can stand beneath public pressure and say, with open eyes and a steady voice, “I belong to Christ.”
Christians should learn from that. Stand firm when the culture demands your silence. Hold your ground when conviction is called hatred. Do it with tenderness, clean hands, tears for the lost, love for your neighbor and your Bible open.
A rainbow appeared on a baseball cap and a few men remembered the God who set it in the sky.
That is enough reason to be grateful. The rainbow is still preaching and let the church stand firm under it.

Proverbs 15:30 ESV
[30] The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, and good news refreshes the bones.
In light of all the negativity...of which we should not and cannot ignore...it's SO important to remind ourselves of GOOD. Easy to say....HARD to do!
@megbasham@JoshDaws DING DING DING!!! Its been one of my greatest frustrations over here of all places in MN...I know women are responsible for their own opinion/judgements but come on husbands...STEP UP and lead...DO NOT be just like Adam sitting idly by as Eve was deceived!
@GrageDustin Been following you for quite some time and appreciate your content. Any strong opinion on which of the governor candidates is the most electable here in MN?
@RealMattCouch Absolutely. Im a young husband, and father of 3. I'll be caucusing for new Governor. I'm also a transplant from WI. My wife is from the suburbs of the cities.
IMO there's a weird blind loyalty to MN people have who have lived here their whole lives and cant admit how bad it is.
And so many evangelicals fall for it over and over.
They did it in 2015/16 with Trump bad, Russian hoax, and Charlottesville hoax.
They did with COVID.
They did it George Floyd, Michael Brown, and other examples.
They did with MeToo.
Endless lack of discernment.
Let me break this down in as basic a manner as I can:
1. America elects a President that the Democrat/Media Complex does not like.
2. Democrats engage in violent riots over whatever their otherwise perfectly legal cause du jour might be.
3. "See? The fact that this guy is President is causing riots. If you vote for us this abnormal rioting that the President is causing will stop."
4. Democrats win next election. Riots stop.

This is no different than the Mafia threatening to burn down a store unless the owner pays protection money.
IT IS EXTORTION.
When will America realize what the Democrat's evil game is and send them to where they belong?
The left’s formula for Creating Chaos:
1.Label opponents as Hitler, Gestapo, or extremists. Use language that inflames.
2.Stoke emotion: hate, fear, and animosity.
3.Deploy NGOs to fund paid protesters & agitators.
4.Raise tensions until violence erupts.
5.Exploit the crisis and blame Trump.
6.Amplify chaos.
7.Gaslight the American people.
8. Win elections.
9.Implement bad policies that weaken America and empower enemies.
10.The public eventually recognizes the manipulation.
11. You lose the next election.
12.Reset & repeat the same playbook.
13.Voters forget the previous administration and assume “you’ve changed.”
14.Long-term goal: destabilize and destroy America.
If Walz wanted ICE out, all he has to do is offer the White House a deal that they will comply with federal immigration law and comply with ICE detainers.
You're a governor, not a king of a state. SCOTUS has ruled, states can't make their own rules when it comes to immigration
