Pastor Levi Lusko joins Justin Roethlingshoefer on The OWN IT Show for a Holy Health conversation on health as worship (not performance), why the Church keeps falling into two extremes (neglect vs idolatry), and how “holy health” is ultimately surrendered health —built to carry your calling.

In a world that turns “discipline” into the goal, Justin and Levi call out what most people don’t see: you can quote Scripture, lead well, and still quietly run your body into the ground—until your peace, patience, and relationships begin to erode.

This episode reframes the true metric of Holy Health: it’s not your image, your biohacks, or your numbers—it’s stewardship + obedience… because that’s what builds long-term capacity.

They also unpack:

🎯 The “Concentric Circles” principle (Jesus → self → spouse → kids → calling) and why you can’t let anyone into the “ring” ahead of the order.

🏔️ The hidden “crash” after mountaintop moments—and why leaders have to learn how to come down and recover.

⚠️ Levi’s wake-up call when a “healthy” stimulant stack was quietly fueling panic.
