IN A world increasingly run by algorithms and artificial intelligence, maintaining a positive self-image in becoming more difficult.

Artificial images of how we’re supposed to look are all around us. This is driving a boom in the sale of diabetes drugs, which are being sold off-label as easy solutions for losing weight to help us achieve that “perfect” body type.

Here’s truth: Jesus loves you in the shape you’re in. He doesn’t withhold his love waiting for you to reach the ideal size.

That said, we encourage you to eat healthy—avoid sugar, simple carbs, processed foods, and sodas (even diet drinks; it’s wise to avoid things that come from a lab!)—because you won’t be effective at serving our King if you don’t feel well.

Just remember—that perfect body is coming in the resurrection!
