Spiritual Discipline
The goal of Live Vertical Fit would be for our youth to understand that through ALL THINGS, even exercise, Christ plays a role. Physical activity is something that is very personal and is interpreted as a way of ‘self-improvement’. Live Vertical Fit wants to change the norm and improve minds to where God is in control of all things in life and God wants him to be healthy, be of right mind and help others. Learning Christ-like characteristics and dependence is at the heart of the program.
Live Vertical Fit provides a unique way of combining the habits of physical fitness and spiritual disciplines. The physical activity description should have helped you understand that even if kids are unable to complete the LVF activity routine, that they can always get in a bible verse, prayer or vertical reflection. These spiritual disciplines allow for prioritizing God for all things your kids will be involved in.
As Christian parents, we should want our kids to learn scripture and be in the Word daily. The LVF app provides this before or after their fitness routine, they follow the prompts to read their scripture. Each week they are given the opportunity to dive a little deeper and meditate on scripture and answer some thought-provoking questions. Topics help deepen their faith and challenge them spiritually.
