Season 5 Episode 146
In this episode we talk with Lainey Greer, founder of Your Body Matters and the creator of Understand Healthy and The Bible and Your Body. She has a deep passion for Christian theology and how we steward our bodies, aiming to equip believers with practical tools to glorify God in their physical health. Lainey shares wisdom to help us understand a biblical perspective on the body, as well as the basics of wellness.
With a background in exercise science (from the University of Texas), Christian leadership (from Dallas Theological Seminary), and systematic theology (from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary), Lainey brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her work. In addition to over 20 years of personal training experience, she’s spent a decade working in the church. Lainey is also the author of Struggling with Body Image: Seeing What God Sees and Be Well: Learning to Steward Your Health. Her upcoming books include, A Teen’s Guide to Eating Disorders: Hope for Your Struggle, and more. She also writes the Forsaken Body blog. When she’s not writing, Lainey speaks at various events, addressing topics like theology, gender, body image, and burnout. She’s also developed Embodied Care Workshops to help ministry workers care for both the body and soul of those they serve.
