A conversation with Lisa Jarvis, founder of FaithFit in Paducah, Kentucky.
A few years ago Lisa Jarvis realized that doing cardio exercise alone isn’t enough to maintain a strong body. She learned BODYPUMP - and loved it - AND when asked, she got certified to teach it.
Then she realized that even a good workout isn’t enough to truly satisfy the soul. Fortunately, Lisa knows WHO does satisfy - Jesus Christ. Longing led to praying, listening and a calling to do something even better next. But where?
Lisa’s story is more than a good inspirational read. It is instruction God is giving you to live out your faith so He can move in fresh ways in your community. Where? God has the perfect place(s) for you to do fitness ministry if you’ll JUST ASK!

My daughter and I love being a part of Faith Fit! Lisa Jarvus is the real deal. Can’t thank her enough for the positive effect this ministry has made in my physical and spiritual life.

Lisa is such a wonderful motivator, both physically and spiritually!! Faith Fit is an excellent opportunity to better your health and your heart through exercise, companionship and the Gospel of Jesus Christ! We are so thankful for Lisa and Heartland for supporting this ministry all for free to anyone who wants to use it(they do take donations for various local charities). Many gyms would charge good money for all that’s available through Faith Fit but only the love of Jesus and a desire to be healthier is required!!
