The fall competition for Losing to Live at Capital Baptist Church is underway and results of combined weight loss will be posted each week as we lose together.  There is a group of approximately 130-140 competitors that have been divided into teams in competition for weight loss.  Each team chose a name for themselves. Steve's team is "Team Kale".  Kale is full of nutrients that are good for you.  If you have any special recipies or ways to cook kale, feel free to post it here so everyone can benefit. 

The teams compete against each other and there is a winning team at the end of the competition.  The biggest individual loser is also recognized at the end of the competition.  In contrast to the television program, no one is kicked off a team.  There is a commitment to do the homework and weigh in each week with a limited number of misses allowed.  It is exciting to see the teams pull together, root for each other, encourage each other and pray for each other.

I am excited to announce that my new book Bod4God is NOW available. I never imagined I would write a book, but after the unsolicited media attention on my sermon series titled "Bod4God" I felt I should put this information in a book. My desire is that people throughout the nation will be able to understand the importance of taking care of the bodies that God has given them.

I was named the Anti-Fat Pastor by Neil Cavuto when I was interviewed in the winter of 2007.  Weight is an issue many in America suffer with as did I before losing over 100 pounds.  I have been overweight myself, so it is important to not I am in judgement of no one who has weight issues. 

I hope this work will help many people, pastors and churches. Feel free to contact me should you have any questions or comments. I would be honored to help you begin a "Losing to Live" weightloss program in your church as well.

Made by God and For God,

Pastor Steve Reynolds - info@Bod4God.org
