God is good!
The Outstretched philosophy is simple: we believe
God will bless our sincere efforts at deepening a relationship with
Him. He wants our fellowship and appreciates creative approaches
to seeking His face. This is why Outstretched is dedicated to a
Christ-centered pursuit of physical healing and spiritual growth
through a practice of yoga.
This Christian approach to yoga simply allows us to combine these
two essential goals: becoming physically healthy and spiritually
healthy. We become more spiritually healthy through the yoga practice
by calming our minds and quieting ourselves to the point that we
can tune out the world's frequency and tune into God's frequency.
Being
quiet with God allows us to create enough psychological and spiritual
space that God can truly create an inner sanctuary in us. Being
quiet enough to hear our Lord's voice is not optional-- it's essential
for growth. Let God bless your efforts to get closer to Him and
the joy-filled, healthy life He has planned for you!
Begun
as an outreach ministry of Jubilee Shores United Methodist Church
in Fairhope, Alabama, Outstretched in Worship has reached thousands
across the country and throughout the world with this approach to
fulfilling God's word when He tells us to "be still and know
that I am God."
Remember yoga alone is certainly not the path to finding peace,
but true, lasting peace and contentment come only through an on-going
relationship with the Lord. So let God's word and this practice
together challenge you to get out of your comfort zone in worship
of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Outstretched, Inc. is a non-profit outreach ministry of Jubilee
Shores UMChurch in Fairhope, Alabama.
"Be
still and know that I am
God." (Psalms 46:10)
