Creating a Family Vision Part 4: Physical Health with Melanie Krumrey Artwork

Miss Teacher Mom

Here at Miss Teacher Mom we recognize the great privilege and responsibility that we have as parents to educate our children. Beyond math and phonics, this also includes building their characters, molding their hearts and reaching their souls- a burden too big to carry on our own! We sense the call to missional motherhood but we could use some help from those who have more experience and wisdom than us. So we're calling upon some wonderful godly women and men to encourage and equip us as we seek to raise our kids with eternity in mind.

Creating a Family Vision Part 4: Physical Health with Melanie Krumrey

January 25, 2021 • Katlynne Mirabal • Season 1 • Episode 22

I Corinthians reveals the amazing reality that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and intended for God's glory. With this in mind, how can we create a vision for the care of our children's bodies? What knowledge and healthy habits will help our children understand the importance of honoring God with their bodies? What will we do when our children struggle with body image?

In part 4 of this series on creating a vision for your family, Mel shares some of the ways she and her husband implemented a vision for physical health in her family. She'll also talk about the tendency, for girls especially, to have a negative body image and how dads can play a crucial role in nurturing a daughter's beautiful identity in Christ.

Melanie Krumrey is mom to three adult children whom she homeschooled K-12 grade. She is also a pastor's wife in Amherst, Massachusetts and serves her church as the Director of Women's Ministry.
