How Religion Inspires Physical Activity

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Faith in Motion invites readers on a transformative journey where belief and behavior converge. Drawing from groundbreaking research on the physical activity practices of the Seventh-Day Adventist community in the UK, Hezron Ottey explores how faith can be a powerful force not just for spiritual health but for physical and communal well-being. This compelling book uncovers the unique ways in which religious values, cultural identity, and lifestyle intersect to promote holistic health. With a blend of narrative insight, scholarly depth, and lived experience, Faith in Motion challenges readers--whether scholars, health professionals, church leaders, or seekers--to rethink how theology can shape wellness, community engagement, and personal purpose. In an age of rising health disparities, this book offers a timely and hope-filled vision: that moving in faith can indeed move the world.
