Walking Programs
Feeling worn out, weary, and ready to come back to the heart of worship without performance, striving, or turning on your step tracker?
Let’s stop worrying about moving numbers on a scale, and instead, through prayer, let’s move mountains with God.
Let’s get back to the simple joy of movement and closer to the heart of God. The goal is not to move more, faster, or longer. 21 Days of Walking Prayer will remind you how to move simply for the joy of moving!
21 days of guided walking prayer
– 21 audio recordings for guided walks (about 20-25 minutes each)
– Training videos on the proper walking form to avoid muscle aches & how to breathe better
Taking a walk — just for the sake of taking a walk and not for a workout — is beneficial for getting back in touch with the joy of having a good body, made by God for good works.
Read more about the amazing benefits of walking for your mind, body, and spirit on this RW Blog Post.
Songs of Ascent: This walking program leads you through the Songs of Ascent, Psalms 120–134. These songs were sung as God’s people would pilgrimage three times a year to the temple in Jerusalem to celebrate the feasts of Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles. Just as the Hebrew people took time together to journey up to Jerusalem, we, too, get to take time to journey with the Lord and each other over 21 days.
Walking the Words of Jesus: Your daily podcast coaches will lead you through prayer and meditation on the words of Jesus in the Gospels. You won’t just listen to the words, but process and walk the words of Jesus. You’ll put feet to your faith as you follow the One who gave us His Word.

Exercise Your Mental Muscle: 21 Day Biblical Meditation Challenge
If you struggle to keep God’s peace as you go about your day, what if we told you it’s not your fault?
The world has gotten faster, and the amount of information you take in daily is increasing. This nonstop pace of life overloads your brain and overwhelms your nervous system. We are over-informed, overwhelmed, and if you’re like so many of us, you are OVER IT!
If you’re tired of being distracted and disconnected and feel like peace is hard to come by, join us for a different type of faith and fitness challenge: Exercise Your Mental Muscle – a 21-Day Biblical Meditation Challenge.
21 days of biblical meditation
– 21 days of Biblically-focused, 15-minute audio meditations to help you practice the art of mindfulness (similar to our Be Still and Be Loved podcast episodes)
– RevWell TV daily workout calendar
This is truly a challenge to exercise your mental muscle using daily biblically based audio meditations. However, your mental health impacts your physical health. Meditation has been proven to strengthen your immune system and lower the effects of stress on your body and brain.
The focus of meditation is on God, His glory and majesty, and His ways and works in the world. Its intended effect is to shape your inner life and outward behavior.
God was the O.C. (Original Creator!) of mindfulness. Each week we’ll focus on one motive and meditate on it as we find it throughout God’s word:
- Week 1: Intention – Jeremiah 1:5
- Week 2: Attention – James 4:7
- Week 3: Attitude – Luke 6:35
– 21 days of Biblically-focused, 15-minute audio meditations

The Clean Hearting Challenge
This isn’t your run-of-the-mill food and fitness challenge. This isn’t a challenge to better modify your behavior or better adhere to a food plan (though a helpful list of food options and recipes are included).
This is a challenge to get better, to have your heart searched and ministered to by the One who knows you best and loves you most.
Inside our hearts is where the real work happens. And if we put in the effort to clean up our hearts, our bodies will fall in line with God’s best.

21-Day Sugar Fast
We’re going to focus on the substance in our food that is currently taking the modern world captive. It’s destroying your body’s God-given ability to recover from illness and protect you from future sickness and disease. It’s no surprise that the substance we’re talking about is sugar.
THE BOTTOM LINE HERE? TOO MUCH SUGAR IS MAKING US SICK.
You may be thinking, ‘but I eat sugar and I’m not really sick!’ The reality is, you could be sick and not even know it! We’re going to drop the pin on how much sugar you’re really consuming because we all need to be aware! Self-awareness precedes transformation, and what isn’t revealed in our lives will not get healed!

Fitness: We encourage gentle movement and breathing exercises during the 21-Day Sugar Fast. Gentle movement will support your body as you work out your sugar cravings.
Through daily devotionals and Scripture reading, you are learning to crave the sweetness of God’s Word instead of sugar which does not ultimately satisfy.
