About the Book

Teachers can empower students to take responsibility and initiative for their own health, fitness and wellness as part of their daily lives, while offering that instruction in a Christian context. This practical text is based on sound, cutting-edge scientific research and Christian principles. As such, it provides an exciting new approach to teaching health and wellness to help meet part of the Christian college mission.In addition, this book comes with many instructional aids that are free to course adopters, including Web support with sample course syllabi, a presentation package and a test package. The book focuses on four major themes: how we are made, how we are made to move, how we are to be nourished and how we are to behave in restful ways.Through this book students will learn about and practice making choices that have positive effects on their lifelong fitness and wellness. Students will become aware of physical wellness issues and develop a passion for proactive and permanent lifestyle changes. And they will do it all with a God-centered approach.
