Temple Keepers
Temple Keepers is a faith and fitness podcast for Christian men and women who want to honor God with their whole lives.
Your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, and caring for it is not vanity. It is stewardship.
Hosted by Matthew and Leah Headden, this podcast is for you if you are trying to lose weight, break unhealthy patterns, build strength, lead your family well, or simply stop feeling stuck, Temple Keepers will help you get back to what matters most. Just honest conversations, biblical truth, real science, and practical steps to help you walk in greater health, freedom, and obedience.
This is for the person who knows their health journey is about more than appearance. It is about worship. It is about discipline. It is about becoming the man or woman God has called you to be.

Keri's Live Coaching Call: Losing Weight & Finding Freedom
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you’ve ever said, “I should be able to do this on my own,” or buried yourself in shame for starting over again… this episode is for you.
Leah and I sat down with Carrie — one of our Temple Keeper Academy sisters — for a real, unfiltered coaching session.
No polish. No performance. Just honesty, conviction, and the kind of hope that comes when you finally let God into the one area you’ve tried to control alone.
Carrie grew up in diet culture. She performed for worth, got “ripped” but wrecked, and then swung to the other extreme—ready to quit altogether.
In this first of a live coaching series, we walk through her story and dismantle the all-or-nothing mindset that’s been keeping her—and so many of us—stuck.
We talk about what it means to steward the temple, not build the church of me.
We expose why willpower is actually a form of self-worship.
And we start rebuilding her health on wisdom, worship, and identity.
What You’ll Feel in Your Bones
• The relief of trading willpower for wisdom
• The peace that comes from surrendering performance
• The hope that your workouts can become worship
• The joy of feeding the version of you God already sees
Lines Worth Keeping Close
“We don’t build the church of me. We steward the temple of God.”
“Willpower is self-worship. Wisdom is surrender.”
“Workouts can become worship when your ‘why’ is obedience.”
