The Spiritual Problem With Today’s Self-Care Movement
About this episode
Dr. Greg Gifford discusses the implications of the modern self-care movement from a Christian perspective.
Is modern self-care helping you glorify God—or quietly making life revolve around yourself? Dr. Greg Gifford examines the explosive growth of the wellness industry, exposes its underlying promises, and explains why Christians need a biblical framework for caring for their bodies. Learn the difference between self-focused self-care and faithful stewardship that honors Christ. Transformed Podcast Episode 188 | August 06, 2026 ___ Thanks for listening!
