First Place

A Christ-Centred Weight Control Programme

The material for the course was devised and developed by First Baptist Church of Houston, Texas. The desire of these Christian folk was to establish a Christ Centred Weight Control Programme. The basic question that initiated the search for such a programme was, 'Since God has saved us from our sins and given us an abundant life, why can't we as Christians, use the same power in the area of weight control?'

After much prayer, study, prayer, reading, prayer, writing, prayer this First Place programme took shape.

The programme focuses totally on the Lord Jesus, with bible study, small-group support, a proven common sense nutrition plan, a text, a method of record keeping, self-imposed discipline and many other elements in order to be effective. Putting Christ first in our lives is the success of the programme. The aim is for growth in all areas: Spiritual, Mental, Emotional and Physical.

The programme will be led by an experienced teacher, a lady who personally understands the struggle.

May God always have First Place in your life
