This fall we will be using a variety of music from current Christian artists such as TobyMac, Salvador and many others, all centered around the theme of "Free from Ordinary". We are special, not ordinary, when we know Jesus. We are God's chosen, beloved ones! There is much more than just physical fitness going on in our classes.
