Several years ago, I made the decision to stop listening to secular music on the radio while I was driving in the car and to listen to only Christian music instead. Just to be clear, I still have some of my favorite non-Christian music on my iPod, and I am not against it at all.

In fact, I used to think I could never step foot in a gym and actually feel anything but embarrassment. I was too weak, small, uncoordinated, and NOT athletic.
