In Bod4God Steve Reynolds launches a full-scale frontal assault in
the ongoing American war with obesity. His weapons, solid biblical
teaching and modern fitness principles, serve more effectively than
any smart bomb or stealth warplane in the current battle against
obesity. Reynolds’ easy-to-understand, motivating plan can help
even the most sedentary couch potato and is especially effective
because it uses eternal wisdom from God’s Word.
His plan helped to motivate our congregation of over 1,000
members to become healthier, leaner, and more joyful in just a
short time and is now sweeping the globe. As a physician in a busy
community practice, I have found it easy to share Bod4God with
my patients as they fight their personal skirmishes with healthy
living. Read Bod4God today, and enlist in the healthy army of the
fit and faithful!

Bod4God has produced more sustainable weight loss for its participants
than any other program that I have been involved with
in my twenty years as a dietitian. The focus on God and on losing
weight for the right reasons was genuinely inspiring. The bonding,
trust, and support of other participants helped keep the momentum
going to achieve truly impressive results. Pastor Steve Reynolds is
a great living example of God’s power to transform.
JAMES M. STERN, MD, FACS
Pastor Reynolds is a modern day prophet who strikes at the heart
of the unhealthy lifestyle of most Americans and many members
of the Christian community. His biblically based Bod4God is a
credible program that could spark a movement toward weight
control and healthier living. I heartily endorse this well-written,
exciting book.

Americans are in a fight for their health against a formidable “Goliath”—
obesity. For years, the scientific community has told us what
“stones” will weaken the giant—good nutrition and exercise. But
translating bench-top research to everyday living is the challenge.
What will powerfully propel those scientific stones? In Bod4God,
Pastor Reynolds teaches us to be the “David.” Armed with the slingshot
of God’s Word, you will launch healthy, up-to-date, scientific
principles of exercise and nutrition to fight head-on the epidemic
of obesity and topple the giant!
JEANNIE BLOCHER, PRESIDENT, BODY & SOUL FITNESS MINISTRIES
It’s been a blessing to partner with Pastor Reynolds and his congregation
to provide Body & Soul as a key exercise strategy for the
Bod4God program. In Bod4God there is a place for everyone to be
successful. People of all ages and fitness levels have participated
and seen improvements in cardiovascular fitness, strength, and
flexibility. You will be encouraged and empowered by this book
as you seek to improve your health and live a life of energy and
vitality to God’s glory.

I have seen patients turn life-threatening conditions into manageable
ones or even experience full restoration through lifestyle
change, including diet and exercise. Pastor Reynolds shows the
powerful effects of faith and lifestyle change in his transformation
from an obese man with illness requiring medication into a man
unburdened by weight and illness.
Welcome to BOD4GOD
My name is Pastor Steve Reynolds author of BOD4GOD and creator of the Losing to Live weight loss program. I want to first tell you why I wrote my book BOD4GOD and why I started the Losing to Live weight loss program.
I had been overweight all of my life. I weighed over 100 pounds in the first grade. After playing football during high school and college, I vowed never to exercise again. That was one promise I kept, ballooning to 340 pounds and staying there for years. I developed diabetes in 1999 but after losing over 100 pounds as of today I don’t suffer from the disease.
I think I am a living testimony to help others who are struggling with obesity and those who are having problems trying to lose weight. This led me to write my book Bod4God: Four Keys to a Better Body. This is a one of kind study of how I accomplished my health-altering change and have encouraged others to do the same thing. 
I decided to develop a weight loss program to fight against obesity. This was how and why Losing to Live was created. I wanted to help others fight against being obese and to do it with God’s words.
My weight loss program is now spreading to other churches throughout the nation and the world. Also, I am now in the process of starting a Losing to Live program for children. My obesity started during my childhood and I want to work with children and their parents to help them fight against childhood obesity.
Recently, I’ve taken my weight lost crusade to another level by appearing on FOX News with Neil Cavuto, CNN, and CBN (Christian Broadcasting Network). I’ve been interviewed by Canadian, Swiss, and German news media. My story has been told in numerous national newspapers including the front pages of the Washington Post and Chicago Tribune.
Please feel free to take this opportunity to read what has been said about my book and weight loss program from medical professionals and those in the health care industry.
