The Saints are marching in to South Florida with only one thing on there minds… “Who is bringing that world famous New Orleans Chili?” Well, that and the confidence in bringing home the Super Bowl Championship!
Expressions Community would like to (i)nvite you to be a part of our Super Bowl of Chili Event next Sunday February 7th! Bring a friend as we crowd around the BIG screen and cheer on the New Orleans Saints to a much deserved win over the Baltimore Colts. We will of course have chili (HOT for only those who dare and mild for those who don’t), snacks, and drinks waiting for the pickings!
If you would like to join us or have any questions please email erik@expressionscommunity.org so we can ensure enough seating and food. Until then keep the chant going “GO Saints GO!“
Marley is the yellow lab adopted by John Grogan, a columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer, and his wife. Their idea was to give them a taste of parenthood, but the dog proved to be a hyperactive handful. He wreaks havoc, gets kicked out of obedience school and gets even worse when the children begin to arrive, yet becomes an indispensable part of the family.
It seems that when God created all things he had one thing in mind; Relationships (Genesis 1:26-31)! So what do you think are the keys to a good relationship? What are some of the different types of relationships you have? And how can you work towards building new healthy relationships?
Join us this coming Saturday February 6th between 6:30 pm and 9:30 pm when we will be watching the film ‘Marley and Me’ and discussing a theme centered on Relationships. We will have popcorn and drinks available.
If you are able to join us or have any other questions please email erik@expressionscommunity.org so we can ensure enough seating. Thank you and I look forward to seeing you and God at the Movies!
“In your heart God has excavated an immense space where he has placed a precious treasure. From now on you have the twofold duty of receiving and giving: sharing the treasure of the kingdom you bear within you and stretching the area of your tent for those around you.“
Last November we had the honor of my friend and chiropractor Dr. Jeff Koep coming and sharing his faith with our Re:Genesis group. He had quite the testimony and spirit for encouraging holistic faith and health while we spoke for about 1 1/2 hours! Jeff offered five practices of holistic health which when applied with our faith can give a real representation of what it means to find health in the midst of the greatest challenges. Here is a letter which he offered at his practice of South Trail Chiropractic Family Wellness Center in the following weeks.
Believe it or not, my goal in last week’s newsletter was not to depress you! In fact, it was meant to a) honor an incredible woman and b) to get you thinking about who in your life might be taken from you prematurely if they keep living the way they are living. You see, that man who died in the gym could have been anyone; even someone you know right now. It could happen to someone you know tomorrow or 20 years from now if they don’t change. I also wanted you to think about what YOU need to change so that you can live life fully right now and for many years to come; so that you can fully enjoy your family, your work, your passions, and your purpose. It is our mission to help you and your families achieve that.
The “part two” of this is that there absolutely IS a better way to live that will ensure a long healthy life. But most people do not live that way. We here at South Trail Chiropractic are dedicated to teaching you this way of living, which we call Maximized Living. There are Five Essentials to Maximized Living and all are extremely important if you are planning on living a full and healthy life and raise the healthiest children on the planet! The 5 Essentials are:
1) Maximized Mind – includes time/stress management, sleep, spirituality, and positive relationships.
2) Maximized Nerve Supply – the power to heal and be healthy is in the spinal cord. When the nerves are interfered with (subluxation), the body cannot function or heal properly.
3) Maximized Quality Nutrition – food provides the fuel and building blocks that your body needs to continue to power and heal itself on a daily basis; you are what you eat!
4) Maximized Oxygen and Lean Muscle – Exercise allows your body to take in higher levels of oxygen and creates lean muscle that keeps both your body and mind healthy.
5) Minimize Toxins – toxins affect our bodies in a negative way and inhibit us from functioning at optimal levels eventually leading to illness and disease.
The 5 Essentials are the core foundation of Maximized Living. Without any of these Essentials, you are unable to live the long, healthy and fulfilled life that you are meant to live. Each of these Essentials work together to keep your cells in optimal shape and your body functioning at its highest levels. If you only focus on one of these essentials, such as exercise, you are leaving out other core elements that keep your body healthy. Of course, your adjustments and spinal correction exercises are taking care of Essential #2, which makes sure that the brain-body connection is fully functional, but what about the other four? Again, we are dedicated to teaching you about them! Starting in January, we will be holding bi-monthly advanced health workshops teaching you the Five Essentials of Maximized Living. As well, we will be holding a one day Maximized Living Makeover to teach you how to regain your health in 40 days.
The exciting part of this is that you CAN regain your health; and you CAN save a life by sharing this information with your friends and family. The North American lifestyle is literally killing people and many don’t see it happening until it’s too late. We will be asking you to bring guests to our events to make sure that we are all reaching out to those who need us. Again, I ask you, what if you gave a dying person the information they need to LIVE? You CAN save a life.
J.W. Fulbright once said, “In a democracy dissent is an act of faith. Like medicine, the test of its value is not in its taste, but in its effects.” Finding and defining social action in the midst of the greatest challenges can be difficult at times when you consider the needs of Canada today; particularly in political institutions. Allowing our faith to shape those actions as well as our leaders must be our central focus and priority if we are to truly Seek Expressions of Jesus as Lord in Life and Community.
Come join us for dinner on Saturday January 16th when our guest MLA Kent Hehr will come and share his story as well as vision to social action in Canadian politics. Together we can discover accountability and inspiration with one another’s roles in shaping our community as social activists and followers of Jesus Christ.
