The Fit Christian Magazine, A Christian Health & Fitness Magazine

Greetings in Jesus!

This summer issue brings a few changes. Although packed with great features, articles, and columns, we are saying goodbye to Rick Mitchell's wonderful exercise columns Just for

Beginners and Exercise the Right Way that we have been running for a few years now. We have come to the end of available articles from this great source. Be sure to grab all of his past articles and make yourself a packet for a resource that you can use in the future time and time again. We will continue to run the Exercise the Right Way column with great articles until we can find a replacement columnist.

We are also saying goodbye to Alina Bradford's column Feeding the Temple. We wish her the best in the future.

I want to say, "Thank you and God Bless You!" to all of our columnists and contributors who are volunteering their precious time, talents, and abilities to help make The Fit Christian Magazine the wonderful resource for faith, fitness, and health that it is.

Please pray for all of our writers, that God will bless them richly in every way!

Happy Reading!
