The above comment does not in any way claim (or even imply) that A Cry For Justice blog endorses this article (or my comment). It merely provides a link to a publicly available article relating to the problematic teachings of Stormie Omartian.

Hi Laurette,

Thank you for your gracious reply. I had already read through the articles and promotional material on your 'Praise Moves' website. I cannot agree with your conclusions about the appropriateness of what you offer, and can find no biblical support for it. Verses relating to our bodies being temples or other such verses you use are in reference to purity and not sinning with our bodies.

I see no Scriptural basis for packaging any exercise program under the banner of service to the Body of Christ. I see a significant danger in 'christianized' products and services that have flooded the market and distract believers from true service. We are to meditate on the whole counsel of God, not just selected verses which are in fact doubtful in their application in the case of an exercise workout.

I respectfully also raise the issue of the teachers you endorse through your podcast 'The Fit Believer'. From your Willis Ministries website:

"The Fit Believer Podcast with Laurette Willis, featuring interviews w/Christian influencers such as Stormie Omartian, Jordan Rubin, Jentezen Franklin, Dr. Gary Smalley, John & Lisa Bevere, Dr. Caroline Leaf, Dennis Jernigan, Danny Cahill, Thelma Wells & others."

John and Lisa Bevere are false teachers. So are Jenetzen Franklin, Dr Caroline Leaf and Stormie Ormartian. Here are some articles that may be of use to warn others of these wolves.

I am concerned that you are promoting your product and commenting here at Stand Up For The Truth, a ministry that openly speaks out about such false teachers as the ones you endorse. I pray that the Lord will continue to open your eyes to his glorious truth, and will expose to you the false teachings of these people and others who you interview on your podcast.

Please stay away from 'Praise Moves'. I find no biblical grounds for 'turning my workout into worship'. This is a business, not a ministry.
