The question that will never end : Can yoga really be Christian?

Yoga was created 5000 years ago in India. Although it stems from Hindu roots, it has become so much more than that in today’s world. Yoga means many different things to many different people, some positive viewpoints and some negative. To me, yoga is my ministry. Growing up in a strong Christian home I’ve always put Jesus Christ number one in my life, and I made a vow to never let anything take His place. I believe that God put yoga into my life for a reason, to help people in many different ways. I use my skill and ability in the yoga classroom to share Christ’s love and show appreciation for the advanced and amazing human bodies He has created. You can make anything Christian if you want it to be, and you can do anything in life to show glory to God. It breaks my heart to see people turn down something amazing as yoga because they feel it can’t be Christian, or it’s just not what their looking for. I used to be one of the skeptical people, but my views have taken a 180 degrees turn.
