Is Obesity a Sin? | Basic Questions for Christians #20

Many Christians struggle with questions about health, obesity, and lifestyle. As a Christian, are you allowed to enjoy food? Does God have anything to say about being overweight? And why does the Bible emphasise both moderation and responsibility?

In this video, we look at what the Bible says about our bodies, self-care, and healthy living. We discuss why our bodies are called ‘temples of the Holy Spirit’ and what that means in practical terms. I also share a personal example from our life in Madagascar, where a healthy lifestyle can mean the difference between vulnerability and strength.

In this video, you will discover:
🔹 Is obesity a sin — and why?
🔹 What the Bible says about the body as a ‘temple’
🔹 Why lifestyle is indeed a spiritual issue
🔹 What we can learn from feasting, enjoyment, and moderation
🔹 Why balance is more important than extremes
🔹 How health and godliness go hand in hand
🔹 Why voluntary self-care is biblical and necessary
