About

My Curriculum Vitae

Hi, I’m Lainey Greer. My faith in Jesus Christ sets the foundation for all I do. My educational background from a bachelor’s degree in exercise science to a master’s degree in Christian leadership and a PhD in systematic theology shapes everything on Your Body Matters. Plus, with 20 years of nutrition advising and personal training alongside over 10 years working in the local church, these experiences drive everything I do today.

My two passions in life have been Christian theology and the body. I always loved working out, and in personal training, also teaching others to care for their health. All the while, my years in ministry and seminary led me to recognize the importance valuing my body as a part of my Christian faith.

My aim is simple: to equip you with a biblical and theological foundation for the body that connects to areas of practical application. Christians believe in created bodies, an embodied Savior, and bodily resurrection. Given these truths, we seek to glorify God in our bodies (1 Corinthians 6:20). This foundation for the body motivates the writing and speaking I do, along with Embodied Care workshops, Understand Healthy lifestyle program, The Bible and Your Body, and other services.

My Favorite Things

My list of favorite things definitely starts with my family, especially my four, sweet nieces. I also love the mountains, which you probably noticed looking around my website. Whether I’m hiking or reading alongside a peaceful stream, the Smoky mountains are my happy place. And when I’m not working out or watching my Tennessee Vols play, you can find me cooking or trying a new restaurant.
