Hear from past and current participants and facilitators of the Come Alive! Program

This was my first Bible Study in 30 years that focused on honoring God with my body and the tremendous impact that it makes in fully connecting with God and others when I mindfully take care of God's temple, my body. 

​- Mary DeMoss

 Come Alive! will appeal to a wide variety of people looking for these objectives: making space for God in the "real world," connecting the physical with the spiritual, learning about healthy eating & moving, creating peace in chaos, understanding God’s deep love for each of us, needing friendship, accountability, encouragement, and how to learn structure & optimize time.

I’d been tentative about trying any “diet” or weight loss program because of past failed attempts – losing weight just to gain it back again, and more, after lapsing on overly ambitious programs. The Come Alive! Program is different. It’s not a “diet” program but a faith-based holistic wellness lifestyle program. I believe the scriptural and spiritual focus of the program made the difference for me. The Holy Spirit is key to providing the strength to be successful.
 
The authentic, supportive relationships formed during the interactive sessions motivated and inspired me to try new things & make positive lifestyle changes. The spiritual practices included in the guide are doable and meaningful. I love that the program is researched and science-based, not a bunch of fad techniques, but true and tested strategies that can be incorporated into anyone’s lifestyle, no matter what stage of life.

I have lost a significant amount of weight, I don’t have to take diabetes medication any longer and my energy level is amazing! All this from my  Come Alive! Program experience. I now have a strong foundation to keep building upon for my lifelong wellbeing.

My favorite practices in Come Alive! were the One Minute Sabbath & Mindful Walking. I use the One Minute on almost a daily basis. It helps me avoid a rash response to an irritant, settles my mind and dispels anxiety

“The Breath prayers came easily and were definitely a favorite practice that I’ve included as part of my new daily rhythm.”
