Church-Based Groups
It’s Better Together....
​
You don’t have to ‘go it alone!’ Faith-based communities play a pro found role in helping course participants achieve their weight loss goals. The Weighting on God course is ideal for group study, so why not invite your friends to join you and embark on your weight loss journey together? Then you can all benefit from mutual encouragement, accountability and support.
Consider Organising a Group Study
​
You don’t need to be an expert in health and nutrition to run a group. Leaders receive additional materials to help deliver the course, and you can all learn from one another.
You can download our ‘How to Start a Weighting on God Group’
Group resources:
Group Leaders’ notes to help with the set-up and delivery of the course.
​
•A PowerPoint slide presentation pack for the 13-week course.
​
•PowerPoint slides of the Nutrition and Exercise supplement so you can‘ drip-feed’ health information to your group.
​
•Sue Prosser ‘In Depth’ interview video 44minutes
The course can be purchased in bundles of 6 or 10, which offer substantial savings
Testimonies
Chris: (small group leader)‘We learnt so much about ourselves.’
​
Four of us at church did the Weighting on God course in the 12 weeks before Christmas(not the best time to do it!) Between us, we lost 34½lbs and through sponsorship raised£172 for Tearfund.
During the course, we had an 'away-day' when 3 of us revised what we'd done so far, did a meditation and had a time of prayer. We were all very excited about the course and learned so much about ourselves, as well as losing weight.
Thank you for the brilliant course...I felt real freedom knowing that I'll never have to diet again. I even put away my kitchen scales because I don't have to weigh my food anymore!
Janet: This course has changed my life
All in all, I would say that the course has changed my life. I feel so hopeful now, and folk are noticing the weight coming off, which is a great testimony to the power of God to transform lives. I am so happy to be able to share with my friends how I am managing to lose weight with the help of God’s Holy Spirit dwelling inside this temple
Seminars
Organising a one-day seminar can be a great way of introducing Weighting on God to your church, and encouraging people to join a course. Please contact the office if you are interested in hosting an event
Feedback from a one-day seminar
Fantastic, good teaching, very encouraging and practical. Highly recommended......
I really enjoyed the seminar, and discovered some reasons why I eat!-very helpful. I would recommend the course to others......
Thank you for reminding me that my body is a temple of the Holy Spirit to dwell in and that God only makes good things (i.e., me!), not junk.”
​
When you understand the steps, it makes it easy to break the habit of eating from when you want to, to when you need to. Our whole family is studying the course now as our own support group.
I found the seminar very enlightening and will never buy a diet book, magazine or associated paraphernalia again.....
Well worth coming and to learn the difference between mouth hungerand real hunger......
