Our Mission Statement
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!!
We wish each of you a blessed and Happy Valentines Day this month. For those of you that are single and do not have a significant other, we encourage you not to stay home and feel sorry for yourself this year. Do something for you. Promote your most important relationship, the one between you and God. Whatever you do, do not settle for something less than what God has for you this year just to say you were with someone. Do not trade your body, your finances or your relationship with God for dinner and a movie.
The bible says in Matthew 7:6: 6 “Don’t waste what is holy on people who are unholy.[a] Don’t throw your pearls to pigs! They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you. Watch for an article and podcast this month explaining this more. In the meantime guard your body, your finances and your heart.
Welcome to the New Beginnings Health and Fitness Ministries family. We consider it a privilege to support your fitness efforts. We welcome your suggestions and ideas, so please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your experience with the monthly newsletter, website, weekly messages or message board more beneficial. We can be contacted at contactus@mynewtemple.org. It is our prayer to bring you words of encouragement and inspiration to motivate you to become fit physically, emotionally, spiritually and relationally. This is your New Beginning and we want to make it an awesome experience for you. As you begin this new adventure we are praying for you.
Who are we?
New Beginnings is a wellness ministry established in 2003 by Carroll Roberts to offer a holistic approach to fitness that includes mind, body and spirit. A wellness ministry also serves to help people help themselves through physical and spiritual exercise and health education. At New Beginnings we believe good health is a gift from God and can be obtained by following biblical principles as we lead a balanced life physically, mentally, spiritually and relationally.
What’s New?
2007 Name Change and Directed Focus
Effective January 1, 2007, New Beginnings became an Arizona Corporation. We have officially changed our name from New Beginnings Health and Fitness Ministries, Inc. to New Beginnings Holistic Fitness Ministries, Inc. It is our desire to minister to the total person mind, body and spirit. You will find that as a ministry we are leaning more toward holistic fitness than health so we wanted our name to reflect who we really are. We pray that with our name change and our directed focus you will see and hear things from us that bless you and your relationships. Our truest desire is to see people set free from the things that the enemy has attempted to use to keep us bound.
Look for more podcasts related to the topics we don’t want to talk about, but stuff that is going on in our lives. We will not be afraid to talk responsibly about sex, allow our family and team members share their new beginning stories and let you know how God has delivered them from their past. We will not be afraid to deal with the stuff that has been dealing with us.
The bible tells us in 2 Timothy 1:7: 7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. It is our mission to help those inside and outside of The Body of Christ learn that the only power our past has over us is the power we give it. Our theme scripture 2 Corinthians 5:17 assures us that our theme is very real, “Your Past Is Not Your Future!” God is doing a work in us and we are blessed that He has chosen to use us this way. Please keep us in your prayers.
New Beginnings Theme-“Your Past Is Not Your Future” 2 Corinthians 5:17
17 This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! We are serving notice on the enemy that we are tearing his kingdom down. We want to encourage you that if you have not already begun to see yourself as the very creation of God start today. Go to our website. Read some of the articles to encourage yourself. Listen and subscribe to the podcasts and be encouraged in knowing that you are not the only who has ever been where you are, even better than that get some encouragement from the success of others. Write on the message board http://mynewtemple.org/aMessages.html so you can hear and share what is going on with you and what is going on in the lives of others.
Upcoming Events
Check out the “I Love Me Some Me” and the “If The Bible Says, A Man That Finds A Wife Finds A Good Thing, Why Are Men Backing Up?” series. We are endeavoring to share topics that will get you and your friends and significant others talking. Don’t shy away from the topics. Discussing them will increase your communication with each other and also stir your thinking, by helping you to find out what other people are saying. In order for our relationships to grow we need to know how other people think. After you talk about it write to us and let us know what you learned. Listen to the podcasts and see what our podcast participants are saying. We look forward to hearing from you. Watch the podcast and weekly articles to see what God is doing through New Beginnings.

New Beginnings Scriptures for February 2007
2 Timothy 1:7:
7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.
Our Mission Statement
Our Mission is to draw individuals to Jesus Christ through the Ministry of Health and Fitness and to see the Body of Christ become fit in all areas by providing tools and information to empower you to succeed. New Beginnings is dedicated to helping you gain personal, spiritual, physical, mental and relational fitness by developing the courage and confidence necessary to set and achieve goals based on biblical principles. Most people encounter difficulty reaching goals, sticking with a diet or completing a task by trying to make an outward change without having made any inward spiritual changes. In other words, all improvements in your life begin with a change in your mind and spirit.
