Welcome to enjoying everyday life with New York Times best-selling author Joy Smire.

On today's program, Joy will be teaching from her series, Healthy Living, Spirit, Soul, and Body.

We may think that God is concerned only with our spiritual health.

When the truth is, He cares about every single area of our life, physically and mentally too.

So how do we take care of our complete selves?

Today, Joy shares how, with God's help, we can learn to make new habits that will lead us to a healthier, happier life.

Now, here's Joy's with today's teaching.

Second Peter, chapter 1, verse 3.

For his divine power has bestowed upon us all things that are requited and suited to life and godliness,

not a breathing life, the God-kind of life.

Through the full, personal knowledge of Him who called us by and to His own glory,

an excellence that one verse could make a four-part series.

God has called us to be excellent, not mediocre.

Excellent. Why we're missing that in the world today.

Why are we missing that in the world today?

Excellent people say what they're going to do and do what they said.

Excellent people go the extra mile.

Excellent people don't leave messes for other people to clean up.

But that's not my message tonight.

And he said, it comes through the full, personal knowledge of Him.

You can't have the kind of life that God wants you to have on your grandma's faith.

Or on the God your pastor knows you need to know Him.
