#1098 "Growing Up and Out" | A REVING the Word Workout
“Either growing up and out, or sin is bringing you down and in.” — Alisa Keeton God is not finished growing you. And spiritual growth isn't about earning God's love or striving to become someone you're not. It's about making room for the life God has made available to you through His Spirit. In this REVING the Word episode, Alisa Keeton takes us to 2 Peter 1:3–8 and explores Peter's invitation to keep growing in faith, virtue, knowledge, self-control, steadfastness, godliness, brotherly affection, and love. Think of these qualities as spiritual supplements—not replacements for the foundation God has given you, but supports that help your faith grow stronger and your life become more fruitful. Stop settling for "this is just how I am" and start reaching for the more excellent way of life Jesus offers. Because we're either growing up and out, or allowing the patterns of the world to pull us down and in. Grace is not opposed to effort. It's opposed to earning. And with the help of the Holy Spirit, we can keep showing up, practicing self-control, doing the hard things, and becoming more like Jesus. THE QUALITIES OF A GROWING FAITH Faith — Trusting what God has given us. Virtue — Living with excellence as image bearers of God. Knowledge — Growing in our understanding of who God is. Self-control — Learning to live by the Spirit rather than our impulses. Steadfastness — Continuing to show up and practice, even when it's hard. Godliness — Reflecting God's goodness in how we live. Brotherly affection and love — Seeing others as God's children and choosing to love them well. AN EMBODIED PRACTICE As you move through your day, consider where God might be inviting you to grow. Notice where you've been saying, "This is just how I am." Identify one thing you've been avoiding, procrastinating, or justifying. Practice self-control by taking one small step toward what you know is good. When a difficult moment comes, lean in and ask, "How might this be an opportunity to grow?" Choose to keep showing up. Do it again. We can do hard things. ANCHOR SCRIPTURE 2 Peter 1:3–8 "His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness..." PRAYERFUL REFLECTION Where have you settled into believing, "This is just how I am"? Which of these qualities—faith, virtue, knowledge, self-control, steadfastness, godliness, brotherly affection, or love—is God inviting you to grow in right now? You are not finished growing. With God's help, keep reaching up and out.

#1097 "Every Table an Altar | A Conversation with Ian Simkins on Finding Connection in a Divided, Distracted, Lonely World
"What if one of the most powerful ways to fight loneliness is to be fully present with the people right in front of us?" — Ian Simkins We live in a world where we can be constantly connected and still feel deeply alone. We’re distracted by our phones, divided by our differences, and often too busy to notice the people right in front of us. What if one of the most powerful ways to push back against division, distraction, and loneliness is surprisingly ordinary? Pull up a chair. Share a meal. Be present. In this conversation, Alisa Keeton sits down with Ian Simkins, pastor at The Bridge Church and author of Every Table an Altar: Reclaiming Connection in a World of Division, Distraction, and Loneliness. Ian shares how the tables where Jesus ate, listened, welcomed people, and told the truth have reshaped his understanding of community, spiritual formation, and what it means to love our neighbors. This isn’t just about hospitality or hosting a meal. It’s about learning to see the ordinary places we already occupy as opportunities to participate in the kingdom of God. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: https://youtu.be/WBIQnkrlSg4 In This Episode The cost of distraction: How our phones and constant consumption of information can keep us physically present but emotionally absent. The grief beneath disconnection: Why recognizing what we’ve lost can become an invitation to change direction. Small steps toward a different life: Why spiritual formation is more like a crockpot than a microwave—and why small, faithful practices matter. Moving from division toward unity: How sharing a table with someone who sees the world differently can make it harder to dismiss their humanity. Taking the first step against loneliness: Why we can’t always wait for an invitation and how curiosity helps us build meaningful connection. Learning to love through listening: Why being truly present with another person is one of the most practical ways we can love them well. An Embodied Practice You don’t have to overhaul your entire life to begin. Ian offers a few simple ways to practice presence: Choose one meal this week to eat intentionally, without your phone. Turn off your phone for a set time so you can be fully present with the people around you. Go first. Invite someone to share a meal or coffee instead of waiting to be invited. Practice being more interested than interesting. Ask a question, listen closely, and make room for another person’s story. Reflection question: What table are you already sitting at, and how might God be inviting you to bring more presence, curiosity, grace, or connection into that space? Meet Ian Simkins Ian Simkins is the lead pastor of The Bridge Church near Nashville, Tennessee. He and his wife, Katie, have three boys. His book, Every Table an Altar, invites readers to reclaim meaningful connection in a world shaped by division, distraction, and loneliness.

#1096 What If Success Looks Like Faithfulness? | REVING the Word ‘Mountaintop’ Intervals with Katrina
What if success isn’t about the results we can see, but the faithfulness we practice every day? In this REVING the Word interval workout, Revelation Wellness Instructor Katrina invites us to wrestle with that question as we move our bodies and reflect on what it means to trust God when life doesn’t look the way we expected. Whether you’re navigating changes in your body, waiting for clarity about what comes next, or continuing to show up when you’re tired of waiting for things to change, this workout is an invitation to release control and be faithful right where God has placed you. Through challenging intervals and honest stories from her own life, Katrina reminds us that faithfulness doesn’t always mean taking the next big step. Sometimes it means pressing on. Sometimes it means waiting. And sometimes it means doing the ordinary thing right in front of us and trusting God with the outcome. Because our faithfulness is never wasted, and the greatest reward isn’t a particular result. It’s knowing Jesus. In This Episode Rethinking success through the lens of faithfulness Stewarding your body with care, even when it changes in ways you didn’t expect Trusting God through seasons of waiting and transition Releasing control over your children, your circumstances, and your desired outcomes Continuing to do good when you’re tired and can’t yet see the fruit Finding hope in the truth that God is faithful, even when life feels messy Scripture Psalm 28:7 — “The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me.” Galatians 6:9 — “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Embodied Practice As you move and as you go about your day, ask yourself: What does faithfulness look like for me today? Where is God inviting me to keep showing up? What do I need to release control of and trust Him with the outcome? You don’t have to know what comes next to be faithful right where you are. Keep showing up, keep trusting, and keep pressing on.

#1095 "Let Down Your Nets" | A Be Still & Be Loved Meditation
What if the next harvest in your life doesn’t come from working harder, but from trusting deeper? In this time of being still and being loved, Alisa invites you into a time of intentional breathing, rest, and surrender as you reflect on Jesus’ words in Luke 5:4: “Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” After a long night of fishing with nothing to show for it, Simon is invited by Jesus to try again. Not by Trying harder, but by trusting His word. Maybe you know what it feels like to keep working at something that no longer seems to be bearing fruit. Maybe you’re facing a dry season, an unanswered prayer, or a place that feels impossible. Through gentle breathing and guided prayer, Be Still & Be Loved offers you space to release what you cannot control, bring your weariness to Jesus, and trust Him enough to go deeper. You don’t have to understand what comes next. You can rest in His presence, let down your nets, and trust Him with the harvest. Anchor Scripture Luke 5:4 — “Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch." Songs On Earth As It Is In Heaven | William Augusto Into the Deep | Citipointe Worship Prayerful Reflection Where in your life are you working hard but struggling to see fruit? What might it look like to release control, trust Jesus, and let down your nets? Take a slow breath. You are held in His presence.

#1094 "The Silence Holds Me" | A Teaching on Hearing God in the Quiet with Alisa Keeton

#1094 "The Silence Holds Me" | A Teaching on Hearing God in the Quiet with Alisa Keeton
We live in a world overflowing with information, noise, and constant connection. But what if our souls are craving something different? What if God is inviting us to stop white knuckling to hear from Him, and simply learn to be with Him? In this teaching, Alisa Keeton shares a personal story from a silent retreat that changed the way she experiences God’s presence. In a season when she couldn’t hear God speaking the way she wanted, she discovered that His silence didn’t mean He had left her. He was teaching her a new way to be held by His love. As says, “Without the ability to hear the voice of God, to hear we got no chance at living out the love of God, which is a response to the love we’ve received.” God isn’t always asking us to do more, study more, or fill ourselves with more information. He invites us to sit at His feet, quiet our hearts, and receive His presence. Silence isn’t rejection. It can be an invitation to rest, peace, and deeper intimacy with the One who holds us. WATCH THIS TEACHING ON YOUTUBE: ANCHOR SCRIPTURE Deuteronomy 6:4–5 Mark 12:29–30 IN THIS TEACHING Why learning to hear God begins with learning to be still. How God’s silence doesn’t necessarily mean His absence. The difference between doing things for God and simply being with Him. How quiet can help us slow down, settle, and become more present. Why peace is something we’re invited to embody, not just understand. A simple practice for beginning to make room for silence in your everyday life. EMBODIED PRACTICE Take one minute to be still with God. Settle your shoulders, quiet the noise around you, and notice what’s happening in your body without trying to fix it. You might feel uncomfortable or restless at first. That’s okay. Give yourself permission to stay present and discover what it feels like to simply be with Him. You don’t have to hear a directive or receive a new revelation. Just be with Him. REFLECTION QUESTION What does silence mean to you? And what might change if you made space to listen?

#1093 "Return to Love" | A REVING the Word Workout with Alisa
“When the work becomes more important than the love, we are headed for divorce court.” Alisa Keeton doesn’t hold back in this REVING the Word workout. The church in Ephesus was working hard, enduring patiently, and holding tightly to truth. But somewhere along the way, they had abandoned their first love. It’s possible to be busy doing things for God and lose the intimacy that started it all. As Alisa says, “The productivity cannot become more important than the intimacy.” God isn’t asking us to abandon the work. He’s inviting us to return to the love that makes the work matter. ANCHOR SCRIPTURE Revelation 2:1–5 “But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first.” — Revelation 2:4 IN THIS WORKOUT Recognizing when spiritual activity becomes more important than love Remembering the quality and intensity of your first love Repenting as an invitation to refreshment, not shame Choosing intimacy with God over the pressure to produce Returning to the love that sustains you and carries you forward PLAYLIST Love Theory | Kirk Franklin Resonate | Rezident Ride Like The Wind (Yacht House Mix) | Christopher Cross, Party Pupils Seek Me and Find Me | Divine Vibes Sing My Love (feat.

Brandon Lake EMBODIED PRACTICE As you move, take Alisa’s question with you: How’s your loving going? Has the work become more important than the love? Has productivity, serving, or striving begun to crowd out your intimacy with Jesus? Take time to remember the love you had at first. Bring your honest heart to God, and ask Him to restore that passion. As Alisa reminds us, “Love started this thing. Love keeps this thing. And love will finish this thing.” Remember. Repent. Return.

In this REVING the Word endurance workout, Aaron invites you to move at a steady pace while reflecting on Mary’s story in Luke 2. When circumstances don’t seem to align with God’s promises, we can treasure what He has shown us and remember that His faithfulness doesn’t change. You may not see it now. It may not look the way you thought it would. But if God is in it, it’s not over. IN THIS WORKOUT What to do when what you see doesn’t align with what God said Learning from Mary’s practice of treasuring and meditating Building spiritual “equity” for the hard moments Releasing the responsibility that belongs to God Trusting God when you don’t understand Remembering that the One who called you is faithful ANCHOR SCRIPTURE Luke 2:19 “But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.” EMBODIED PRACTICE As you move, sit with this question: What do you do when what you see doesn’t align with what God said?

#1090 “The Presence of the Helper” | A REVING the Word Interval Workout
In this REVING the Word workout, Alisa walks through Jesus’ promise in John 16: the Holy Spirit is our Helper. He comes to strengthen us, advance us, and convict us—not to condemn us, but to lead us back into truth. Conviction can feel uncomfortable, especially when the Holy Spirit points out where we’ve stopped trusting, started compromising, or allowed the world to get in us. But what if we learned to welcome His correction as a gift? You are not alone. You have a Helper. New to REVING the Word? In REVING the Word episodes, we don’t just listen to Scripture; we practice it. We let God’s truth move from our ears into our hearts and through our bodies. So move any way you want as you listen. Walk the dog, mow the lawn, listen as you lift weights in the gym, or dance in the kitchen. There isn't one right way. Just move, breathe, and as your body moves, let His Word move in you. ANCHOR SCRIPTURE John 16:7–8 EMBODIED PRACTICE Look at the “rocks” coming in your day. Where will you need help? Ask the Holy Spirit, “How do You want to help me here?” Then picture yourself moving through that moment differently with the Helper. PRAYER “Holy Spirit, I give You the right to convict me. Make me a prisoner of hope. Make me a prisoner of love. Tell me my faults. I welcome Your correction because I know it’s for my life.” PLAYLIST: Let’s Groove | Earth, Wind & Fire The Fool | Jerro Edge of Desire | Jonas Blue, Malive HOLYGHOST | Sons Of Sunday We Make Space | Melissa Helser All Hail King Jesus (Live) | Bethel Music, Bethany Wohrie Miracle in Me (Radio Version) | Red Rocks Worship READY FOR MORE? 👉 for faith-based workouts, health and wellness programs, and a community pursuing health and wholeness together. 👉 — Support the mission of Revelation Wellness and help us continue to train people to love God and their bodies so they can live like Christ.

#1089 “Lesser Parts” | A Be Still & Be Loved Meditation
What if the parts of you the world has taught you to dismiss are the very places God wants to honor? In this time of being still and being loved, Alisa invites you to breathe, release what you’ve been carrying, and receive the truth that you are beloved by God—your body, your heart, your mind, your desires, all of you. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 12:22–23, we’re reminded that the parts of the body that seem weaker or less honorable are indispensable—and that God bestows great honor on what the world may overlook. Your weakness is not disqualifying. Your rejection is not the end of your story. Your pain does not make you less worthy. You belong to the body of Christ. You have an important role to play. Take a deep breath. Come, Holy Spirit. And receive the honor God is giving you. ANCHOR SCRIPTURE 1 Corinthians 12:22–23 “The parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and the parts that we think are less honorable, we treat with special honor.” BE STILL & BE LOVED Come back to your breath as an act of surrender. Let the words of Scripture rest on you. You don’t have to figure them out. Just receive them. I honor you. You belong. You are indispensable. Receive my honor.

#1088 "Why Hope Hurts" A REVING The Word Workout
Have you ever hoped for something, and it didn’t happen the way you hoped? You’re not alone. In this REVING the Word workout, Alisa takes us into Romans 5 and the surprising connection between suffering, endurance, character, and hope. Because sometimes hope hurts when we attach certainty to a specific outcome. What if your hope isn’t in how God will answer, when He will answer, or what it will look like—but in this: God will get His glory. You can be sure of what you hope for without being certain you’ll see the exact outcome you’re hoping for. So what do you do in the in-between? Don’t quit. Change your pace. Put your hope back in Christ. And worship. New to REVING the Word? In REVING the Word episodes, we come here to bow our heads and let our hearts speak, so God can pour His love into our hearts as we move. We move our bodies. We hear the Word of God. And we let God meet us—body, soul, and spirit. ANCHOR SCRIPTURE Romans 5:1–5 EMBODIED PRACTICE Ask yourself: What am I hoping for? Write it down, but release your certainty about the outcome. Put it on the altar and put your hope in a place it won’t hurt, His glory. Embody joy: Guard your eyes and heart. Move your body. Be still. Pray. Listen to worship music. Read the Word.

#1087 Teaching with Alisa Keeton: Sweet Conviction
Do you need help? Jesus tells us in John 16 that the Helper, the Holy Spirit, will convict us concerning sin, righteousness, and judgment. Conviction can feel uncomfortable, but it is how we know we are children of God, the Good Father. In this teaching, Alisa invites us to rethink conviction. The Holy Spirit doesn’t convict us to shame or condemn us. He convicts us because He loves us enough to show us the way. “The correction of the Holy Spirit is sweet.” LEARNED HELPLESSNESS Learned helplessness is the belief that nothing you do will change your situation, especially after repeated setbacks. But here’s the good news: it’s learned. And if we’ve learned something, we can unlearn it. So, do you need help? Have you invited the Helper to help you? ANCHOR SCRIPTURE John 16:7–8 “Nevertheless, I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send Him to you. And when He comes, He will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment.” THREE REASONS WE MAY NOT FEEL CONVICTION 1. We’re too tired. We numb our hearts and don’t want to be constrained in our fatigue. 2. The world is too noisy. We’re overstimulated and overconnected, leaving little space to hear the whispers of the Holy Spirit. 3. We’re moving too fast. When everything feels like a five-alarm fire, we can move so quickly that we miss what the Holy Spirit is showing us. EMBODIED PRACTICE This week, make room for the Helper: Practice silence Slow down Get some rest Read the Word of God Pray PRAYER IF YOU’RE READY Jesus, I invite You to send the Helper to convict me of sin concerning anything that I am doing that numbs my heart towards You. Convict me. Open my ears to hear the whispers of the Holy Spirit. I offer You my appetites, my desires. God, restore me with rest. I’m sorry. I repent of too much, too fast, and too loud. I want to be taken captive as a prisoner of Your love and hope. Walk with me, Holy Spirit. Lead me in the ways I should go. I long to hear Your voice louder than the world. Convict me of sin, righteousness, and judgment. I love You and I thank You. In Jesus’ name, Amen. WATCH THIS OVER ON YOUTUBE: Mentioned in this episode: Why Do I Hate My Body Teaching.

#1086 “Who Are You Going to Be?” A REVING the Word Endurance Workout
What if the thing you’re asking God to resolve is actually the thing He’s using to form you? In this REVING the Word workout, Jennifer Allen invites you to move and make space for the Holy Spirit to form you in the middle of whatever season you’re in. Maybe you’re waiting for clarity, navigating change, relationships, making a hard decision, or asking God to just fix something. What if peace isn’t found in getting the answer, fixing the relationship, or resolving the thing you’ve been carrying? Jennifer invites us to consider a different kind of peace, the kind that comes from staying connected to Christ while the story is still unfolding. There are moments when God doesn’t answer the questions we’re asking. Instead, He asks us a better one: Who are you going to be? What if He’s doing a deep work in you while you wait? New to REVING the Word? In these episodes, we don’t just listen to Scripture, we embody the Word by moving our feet. So move however you can today, walk, run, march in place. There is no “right” way, so take a breath, and let your movement become your worship.

#1085 “The Commanders of Calm” A REVING the Word Interval Workout
Jesus told His disciples, “Let us go across to the other side.” And then a storm came. They were in the boat fighting a stom, and Jesus was asleep. The waves were rising. The boat was filling with water. And the disciples asked the question we’ve all asked of Jesus: “Don’t you care?” In this REVING the Word workout, Alisa Keeton invites you into the story of Jesus calming the storm in Mark 4. As you move and let the Word move in you, notice what happens in your body when you think about the storms you’re going through. Let your movement become an opportunity to practice trusting faith. We are all headed for a storm, in a storm, or coming out of one. The invitation isn’t to avoid the storm. It’s to discover who Jesus is in the middle of it, and learn to trust Him. “If Jesus put you in it, He’ll get you through it.” Anchor Scripture: Mark 4:35–41 Playlist for this REVING the Word: Show Me (Radio Edit) – Vumaala, Re Alissa Late Night – ODESZA Set My Heart On Fire (I’m Alive x And The Beat Goes On) – Majestic, The Jammin Kid, Celine Dion Jesus Is The King – Tiki Lau Silence (John Summit Remix) – Delirium, Sarah McLachlan, John Summit Welcome Resurrection (feat.

#1084 It’s Never Too Late to Start Again | A Conversation with Maxetta Gadd
“You want some change in your life? Start praying.” -Maxetta Gadd For anyone who's felt disconnected from their body. Tried to control their way into freedom. For anyone who's wondered if it's too late to start again. Pull up a chair and listen in as Alisa sits down with our friend, Maxetta Gadd, for a real, honest conversation about the winding road back to truth. Maxetta gets real about the tension of knowing the truth but still finding yourself walking in lies. She shares the real struggles in her body and how missing out on opportunities to live life fully with the people she loves led her to make a bold change. Surrender. What followed wasn’t a quick fix or a perfect before-and-after story. It was a deep surrender that began changing the way Maxetta understood her body, her habits, her relationship with food, and the Holy Spirit’s role in her everyday life. Truth was revealed. And it started with prayer. This isn’t a story about having it all together. It’s a story of surrender. About discovering that what you thought was discipline could actually become delight. And about coming back to a community that will remind you who you are when you forget. Because it’s never too late to start again. Watch this episode on Youtube! Head over to the to watch the full conversation. Connect with Maxetta: Follow along for encouragement, honesty, a reasons to keep saying yes to the life God has given you.

#1083 “The House of God” A Be Still and Be Loved Biblical Meditation
Be Still & Be Loved is a guided Scripture meditation designed to help you slow down, become aware of God's presence, and rest in His peace. In this time to be still and be loved, Alisa invites you to settle into your body, breathe deeply, and remember: His presence is in you. He is always near. Peace is found in Him. Drawing from Haggai 2:9, you'll be reminded that your body, mind, heart, will, and desires are a house of God, and “in this place, I will give peace.” As you rest in this time of stillness, bring a current circumstance that feels unsettling or painful to mind and imagine living it as a person of peace. This is embodiment of the Word, and an invitation to receive His presence and live as a person of peace. Take a breath. Return to His presence. Receive His peace. He is already here. 🎵 Song: Peace by Anna Golden Ready to Go Deeper? 👉 Join RW+ for faith-based workouts, health and wellness programs, and a community pursuing health and wholeness together. 👉 — Support the mission of Revelation Wellness and help us continue to equip people to know God, get healthy, be whole, and love others. 👉 Get connected — | | | Share this episode with someone who needs the reminder that their body is the house of God.

#1082 “Rejoicing is a Choice” A REVING the Word Interval Workout
When life feels disappointing, heavy, or uncertain, rejoicing can feel like the last thing you want to do. But Scripture gives us another way. Joy is a fruit, and rejoicing is a choice. In this REVING the Word experience, Kara invites you to move your body while training your heart to rejoice in the Lord—even when your circumstances don't feel good. Through Scripture, movement, worship, and what Kara calls ‘chorus cardio intervals,’ you'll use the music to move your feet. Rejoicing is a learned response, we get to choose it. Whether you're walking, running, or cleaning the house move in whatever way works for you today. This is your invitation to move while letting God's Word move in you. Rejoicing is your battle plan. What can you rejoice for today? Anchor Scriptures: Philippians 4:4 Psalm 118:24 Habakkuk 3:17–18 Psalm 34:1 Galatians 5:22–23 Embodied Practice: Gratitude is a muscle! It grows stronger the more you do it. So practice rejoicing today. Name what's hard. What is your “fig tree” right now? Where are you disappointed, discouraged, or waiting for something to change? Then choose to praise God, not because your circumstances are good, but because He is good. Say this out loud: “This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it.” And when you wake up tomorrow, say it again. Rejoicing is a learned response. Keep choosing it. Keep practicing it. Keep reminding your heart of what is true. 🎵 Playlist for this REVING the Word: The Joy - Studio Version– The Belonging Co, David Dennis, Andrew Holt, Shantrice Laura Joy Is Coming – Rave Jesus, Terrian, SON.

#1081 Teaching: Your Body Doesn’t Need a Steward. It Needs a Shepherd.

#1081 Teaching: Your Body Doesn’t Need a Steward. It Needs a Shepherd.
“We steward our lives by staying close to the shepherd who knows how to feed and care for his sheep.” What if the way we've been taught to “steward” our bodies is actually keeping us more focused on our bodies than free in them? In this teaching, Alisa Keeton invites us to take a deeper look at stewardship, and what Scripture actually says about stewarding our bodies. If you’ve ever felt like you should be doing more, eating better, exercising differently, or getting your body 'right' this conversation is for you. Alisa walks through a body dissatisfaction scale and explores how easily Christian wellness language can become another way of watching, comparing, and trying to control our bodies. Instead, she offers a different picture: Bodies need shepherding more than stewarding. Jesus is the Good Shepherd. He knows how to lead, restore, and care for us. Our invitation is to stay close to the One who knows how to care for our whole selves. In this teaching, you'll explore: What body dissatisfaction really is how to identify it in ourselves How body stewardship can unintentionally become another form of control Why bodies are meant to be lived in, not watched The connection between soul hunger and body dissatisfaction What Scripture actually says about stewardship What it looks like to seek Jesus first in a noisy, hyper-visual wellness culture Why we may need a Shepherd, not another set of rules Watch this teaching on Youtube: Practice & Reflection The next time you notice yourself watching, measuring, comparing, or criticizing your body, pause and ask: Am I living in my body, or am I watching my body? Then take a breath and turn your attention toward the Good Shepherd. What would change if I trusted the Good Shepherd to care for me instead of believing I have to control myself? Teaching Scriptures: John 10:10 — Life to the full Romans 12:1 — Offering our bodies to God 1 Corinthians 10 — Honoring God with our bodies 1 Corinthians 4:1–2 — Stewarding the mysteries of God 1 Peter 4:10 — Stewarding God's gifts Matthew 25:14–30 — The parable of the talents 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 — Our bodies as temples of the Holy Spirit Mark 6:34 — Jesus' compassion for people like sheep without a shepherd 1 Peter 2:24–25 — Jesus as Shepherd and Overseer of our souls Psalm 23 — The Lord as our Shepherd Mentioned in this Teaching Download the Body Dissatisfaction Scale: Why Do I Hate My Body Webinar.

#1080 "When God Feels Absent, Keep Rowing" A REVING the Word Intervals Workout
What do you do when you followed God into the boat, and then He seems to disappear? When the storm lasts longer than you expected, the answers don't come, and you find yourself asking, Where are You, God? In this REVING the Word experience, Alisa Keeton walks through John 6:16–21, where the disciples find themselves rowing through a storm after witnessing Jesus perform a miracle. As you move your body, you'll explore what it means to trust God when He feels absent, and to recognize His presence in the middle of the storm. Train your heart as you move your body. Whether you're walking, running, or cleaning the house as you listen, this is an invitation to get honest and bring your questions before God. You don't have to understand the storm to trust the One who put you in the boat. Today's Scripture John 6:16–21 Embodied Practice: Grab a notebook, on the left side write out your groans, your questions, complaints, frustrations, and fears. Bring it honestly to God. Then, on the right side, write: "But as for me..." Lift all these things up to God. Trust Him. Follow Him. He is worthy. Keep rowing. Playlist for this REVING the Word: So Good – riley.

#1079 "Stop Waiting to Arrive" A REVING the Word Workout
What if joy isn't waiting for you at the finish line? Have you been waiting to feel joyful, confident, or close to God once you finally reach your goal? In this REVING the Word experience, Revelation Wellness Instructor and staff, Tori, invites you to move your body while meditating on Philippians 3:12–14. As you listen and move your body, you'll explore the difference between striving and surrender, conviction and condemnation, and learn how God transforms us through small acts of faithful obedience. Press play and practice perseverance. Your heart will be reminded that Christ already took hold of you, and that's why you can keep pressing on. New to REVING the Word? REVING the Word is where movement becomes worship. However you move today—walking, stretching, or cleaning the house—this is your invitation to fix your eyes on Christ while moving the body He has given you. You don't have to arrive before you experience His joy. Bring your whole self—body, mind, and spirit—and receive His grace. Anchor Scripture: Philippians 3:12–14 Practice this Week: Spend a few minutes reflecting on these questions: Where in your life have you been waiting to arrive before allowing yourself to experience joy? Are you pursuing health to earn something? What is one faithful step you can take today? Write your responses in a journal and ask the Lord to show you what one faithful "yes" looks like today.

What do you really want? Beneath every frustration, fear, or unanswered prayer is often a deeper longing. In this REVING the Word experience, Alisa Keeton invites you to move your body as you engage with Psalm 23 through movement, prayer, reflection, and worship. Explore the difference between our wants and our deepest needs, and the freedom that comes when we let the Good Shepherd lead. In this workout, you'll be invited into a series of sprint intervals that will interrupt your comfort and wake up the body. As you move, you'll be asked honest questions and discover that the Good Shepherd isn't simply interested in meeting your wants, but caring for your deepest needs too. New to REVING the Word? REVING the Word is about theology for our biology. Move your body however that looks for you today. Take a walk, mow the lawn, clean the house, stretch, or listen at the gym. There isn't one right way to REV the Word. Just bring your whole self as you move, breathe, and meditate on God's Word.

#1077 The Posture of Wellness

#1077 The Posture of Wellness
Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything right, stayed faithful, done the work, surrendered it to God, and still felt like it isn't working? Maybe it's your health, your marriage, a dream, or a body that won't cooperate. You've sown plenty and harvested little, and you're starting to wonder: is this even worth it? In this episode, Alisa gets honest about a season she's just walked through herself and unpacks why our instinct in that place is almost always the same: to grip tighter. She talks about the "palmer grasp reflex.” The primitive, clenching survival instinct we're literally born with explains why we try to control our weight, our health, and our circumstances when life feels uncertain. Walking through the story of Abraham and Sarah in Genesis 12, Alisa unpacks what she calls the posture of wellness, a way of holding both pain and trust, sorrow and celebration, certainty and mystery, at the same time, instead of swinging between control and collapse. You're invited to picture and practice what it looks like to open your hands and receive rather than grasp and control. Bringing both our pain and our praise to God at the same time. Embodied Practices to Participate in Surrender Notice the clench: Pay attention to the moments you start gripping, controlling, or trying to force an outcome. That's your cue to pause. Get curious instead of certain: When you feel the urge to white-knuckle a decision or a habit, ask a question instead of making a final judgment. Open your hands: Practice naming what's hard in one hand and what you know is true about God in the other and bring both to Him. These aren't just spiritual practices; they're ways of working with how God designed our nervous systems so that our minds, bodies, and spirits can come into alignment with Him.

#1076 "You Won't Be Wrong" A REVING the Word Workout
You can be walking with God and still walk through painful places. Following Jesus does not mean we avoid hurt, opposition, or discomfort. But it does mean we are never without His presence. In this REVING the Word workout, Alisa Keeton explores Luke 10:17-20 and the authority Jesus gives His followers. When the 72 disciples returned amazed by what God had done through them, Jesus reminded them that their greatest victory was not what they accomplished, but that their names were written in heaven. Followers of Jesus will experience hurt. We will face resistance and walk through hard things. But when you are anchored in Jesus, “you won’t be wrong.” Press play, move your body, open your heart, and let His Word move in you. Anchor Scriptures Luke 10:17–20 Luke 9 Luke 12:32 Hebrews 11:1 Psalm 139 New to REVING the Word? Your body was created to carry the presence and purpose of God. In REVING the Word episodes, we don’t just listen to Scripture; we practice it. We let God’s truth move from our ears into our hearts and through our bodies. Move however you want. Walk. Lift. Stretch. Dance. There is no “right” way. As you move your body, remember: you were made for more than sitting on the sidelines. You were created to walk in the authority Jesus gives you. 🎧 Playlist for This Workout Listen to the Music (DJ Malibu Mix) – The Doobie Brothers A Smile with Scars – CRi, Romain Garcia What I see (feat.

What are you carrying that God never asked you to hold? Are your hands clenched tightly around an outcome? A relationship, a situation, or a prayer you've been waiting on? In this REVING the Word workout, Jennifer Allen invites you to discover the freedom of holy indifference—the practice of caring deeply while releasing control to God. Rooted in James 5 and 2 Peter 1, this REVING the Word experience invites you to move your body as you engage with Scripture through prayer, reflection, and worship. Open your hands and move your body as you hear this Good News that will shape you from the inside out, discovering that true strength isn't found in controlling the outcome. This is a practice of remaining faithful and firmly rooted in God's love, even as the story is still unfolding. Open your hands. Release the outcome. Stay faithful. Strengthen your heart. Anchor Scriptures James 5:7–8 2 Peter 1:5–8 Matthew 26:36–46 Romans 12:18–19 New to REVING the Word? Your body was made to move! So move it, any way you want as you listen. Walk the dog, mow the lawn, listen as you lift weights in the gym, or dance in the kitchen. There isn't one right way. Just move, breathe, and as your body moves, let His Word move in you.

#1074 "Treasures" A Be Still and Be Loved Biblical Meditation
Be Still & Be Loved is a guided Scripture meditation designed to help you slow down, quiet your mind, and rest in God's presence. Whether you're beginning your day, taking a midday pause, or preparing for sleep, this space invites you to breathe deeply and receive His peace. Take a few moments to settle into a comfortable position. If you're able, lie down. If not, find a seat where you can rest without distraction. As you begin to notice your breath, pay attention to how your state of being starts to shift. Every inhale and exhale is a reminder that God is near, holding you with His steady love. In this guided meditation, you'll reflect on 2 Corinthians 4:7: "But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us." Though our bodies are fragile, they carry something infinitely valuable—God's presence. He is our greatest treasure, and He treasures every part of us, including our minds. Together we'll quiet the noise, fix our thoughts on what is excellent, noble, and true, and rest in the One who is making us new—body, mind, and spirit. Breathe deeply. You are held. You are loved. You are His treasure.

#1073 Does the Body Really Keep the Score?
Have you seen videos of people experiencing a dramatic emotional release and wondered, "Do I need that to heal?" The conversation around trauma, somatic healing, and nervous system regulation has exploded in recent years. Many point to the bestselling book The Body Keeps the Score and the idea that trauma is stored in the body. Others argue that trauma isn't stored in the body at all, but rather in the brain's predictive patterns and responses. So what's true? In this episode, Alisa explores this important conversation through both science and Scripture, examining where biology and theology meet. Together we'll consider what trauma does to the brain and body, why healing requires more than information alone, and how God's design for our minds and bodies points us toward lasting freedom. You'll discover: What somatic release is The difference between trauma being "stored" in the body versus encoded in the brain How trauma can impact our ability to shift from fear, anxiety, and hypervigilance into peace and safety Why tending to the body can help us tend to the mind What Romans 12:2 and 2 Corinthians 10:5 teach us about renewing our minds Why healing happens in connection, not isolation How the compassion of Christ invites us into true restoration Alisa also unpacks Jesus' encounter with the man at the pool in John 5, asking a powerful question: Do we truly want to be healed, even when healing requires discomfort, surrender, and change? Practical Ways to Participate in Healing Get close to Jesus Spend time in God's Word until your heart is awakened to His truth and love. Stay connected to God's people Healing happens in relationships with people who embody the love and truth of Christ. Practice daily sacrifice Learn to become comfortable with healthy discomfort. These practices are more than spiritual disciplines—they are psycho-neuro-biological pathways that help align our minds, bodies, and spirits with God's design for wholeness. Scriptures Referenced Romans 12:2 2 Corinthians 10:5 John 5:1-15 Resources Mentioned The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk Kotler S, Mannino M, Fox G and Friston K (2026) The body does not keep the score: trauma, predictive coding, and the restoration of metastability.

#1072 "Welcoming All Things" A REVING the Word Workout
Join Alisa Keeton for a light interval workout and contemplative prayer practice rooted in Romans 8:28. Drawing from the teachings of Thomas Keating, Alisa explores surrender as an active posture of trust—not apathy, but courage. As you move, you'll consider what it means to welcome God into every part of your life, especially the places where you're striving, overfunctioning, worrying, or trying to stay in control. Through gentle intervals and reflective questions, you'll be invited to notice where your fists are closed and practice opening your hands to God's presence. Together, you'll explore the difference between groaning and grumbling, how suffering can become a pathway to deeper trust, and why surrender is often the beginning of coming home to God. This workout will help you shift from frustration to fascination, from anxiety to adventure, as you remember that God is working all things toward good. Come ready to move, reflect, and strengthen your surrender.

#1071 "The God Who Sees" A REVING the Word INTERVAL Workout
In this interval workout, Alisa Keeton invites you to move your body so you can return to your body—and encounter a God who created it. This is not a “have to.” It’s a get-to. A chance to care for your body, nourish it, and remember that worry and striving lead toward bondage, while presence leads toward freedom. A Question to Begin When was the last time you felt truly seen by God? Because the God who sees… sees you. Today’s Scripture 📖 Genesis 1:31 “God saw all that He had made, and it was very good.” The Hebrew word tov means good—whole, complete, flourishing. Before anything was said, there was seeing. God didn’t just declare goodness—He saw it. Knowing vs. Being Seen Knowing God is cognitive. Being seen by God is embodied. To know we are good, we need to be seen. Three Ways to Experience Being Seen by God Read the Word Gather in community Be known (vulnerability and honesty) Move as an Invitation As you move through today’s intervals, let this become more than exercise. Let it become a practice of receiving God’s gaze. You are not striving to be good. You are learning to believe what God already sees. Keep moving. Stay present. And let yourself be seen.

Jennifer invites you to bring a difficult situation before the Lord, move at a pace that feels right for your body, and experience the companionship of Christ in the midst of suffering. Come ready to move, reflect, and be reminded that God's promises run deeper than any circumstance. Your suffering is not wasted.
