Our bodies are not our own — they are temples of the Holy Spirit, bought at a price. This week we explore what it truly means to honor God with our physical lives, not out of guilt, but out of gratitude.
Discussion Questions
8 questions1.Lysa writes that one of her most important mental shifts was deciding to make choices based on the question "Will this choice honor God?" rather than "How much can I get away with?" How different would your everyday food decisions look if that single question guided them?
2.1 Corinthians 6:19–20 calls the body a "temple of the Holy Spirit" and says we were bought at a price. Lysa doesn't use this passage to pile on guilt but to inspire dignity and gratitude. How does knowing that your body is the dwelling place of the Spirit of God change how you feel about caring for it?
a.Have you typically heard this verse used to motivate shame or to motivate worship? Which feels more motivating to you, and why?
b.What is one practical way you could begin treating your body with the dignity this passage suggests it deserves?
3.Romans 12:1 calls us to offer our bodies as "living sacrifices" — an act of worship. Lysa connects this to the daily, moment-by-moment decisions we make about food and exercise. In what sense is saying "no" to a food craving an act of worship? Does that framing change how it feels to exercise self-control?
