Did you know that yoga is integrally linked to Hinduism?
If you didn’t know this, do you think you should know more about it before practicing it if you are a Christian?
If you did know this, can yoga be stripped from its Hindu meaning and origins as it is commonly practiced in the West?
Is it appropriate to “Christianize” yoga?
Are some yoga classes recruitment grounds for Hinduism and the New Age Movement?
Have you ever been to a yoga class that has everyone say “Namaste”? Do you know what this means? Is this an appropriate word for Christians to use with others?
Is it permissible for Christians to practice yoga? Is this a strong brother/weak brother situation that Paul addresses in Romans 14?
When Christians practice yoga what message are they conveying to Hindus and those of the New Age worldview?
Mary Eady of TruthXchange answers all of these questions in this episode of Reconnect!
She has written a booklet entitled, Letter to a Friend: Yoga. It’s currently being repackaged for a new round of publishing, so I can’t share a link to it at the time of releasing this episode. It is one letter in a series by TruthXchange intended to guide Christians in sharing the truth of Scripture in a winsome way with their friends when addressing difficult practices and beliefs that are commonly accepted in our culture and even at times the Church, yet are in conflict with what God has revealed to us in his word.
