Welcome to First Place! |
First Place , a Christ-centered health program, is one of the premier total well-ness programs, and you have the awesome opportunity to be a part of this exciting ministry.
This year marks the 26th Anniversary of First Place. First Place began in the hearts of a group of Christians asking the question, "Since God has saved us from our sins and given us abundant life, why can't we, as Christians, use that same power in the area of weight control?"
They knew that in order to be effective, the program had to focus totally on the Lord and include Bible study, small-group support and accountability, a proven common-sense nutrition plan, exercise, and other important elements.
They also knew putting Christ first in their lives would be the success of the program. Their aim was for growth in all areas: spiritual, mental, emotional and physical.
Matthew 6:33, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you", was chosen as the theme verse for the program. Hence, the name "First Place."
