What is CrossFit & Christ? Faith, fitness, and community in Daytona Beach
Most people are running on empty. Disconnected. Sedentary. Isolated. Numbing the stress of life with screens and scrolling instead of dealing with it.
So three times per year we open up our gym in Daytona Beach with a workout and Bible study group called CrossFit & Christ to help grow and give back to our community.
We built CrossFit & Christ because we believe you were made for more. You were designed to have a strong body, a strong spirit, and a strong community.
What CrossFit & Christ actually is
CrossFit & Christ is a small group affiliated with Jesus Church that includes a workout and a Bible study, built to get you moving and connected.
At 9am, we hit a partner conditioning CrossFit workout inspired by HYROX. We combine cardio, strength, and bodyweight movement in a fun coach-led group class. We warm up, we practice the movements together, then we go to work as a team.
Then at 10am, we stay right where we are and open up the Bible. This fall we’re going through the book of Luke, the story of Jesus, from birth to death to resurrection. We read on our own during the week, then come back together to talk it through.
Who this is for
This is for anyone in the Daytona Beach area. It’s for all levels of fitness and faith. We’ve got members who’ve been doing CrossFit for over a decade and others hitting their first CrossFit workout ever. And whether you’ve been a life-long believer or you’re curious about Jesus, this is a safe space to ask questions and grow together.
This fall’s season
CrossFit & Christ runs three times a year, and this fall we’re spending 12 weeks through the book of Luke starting September 5th. If you’ve been curious about faith, if you’ve got questions nobody’s ever let you ask out loud, or if you just want a Saturday morning that leaves you better than it found you, this is the season to jump in.
What we’ve seen happen here
We’ve watched this group become a real community. People who lean on each other and show up for each other outside of Saturday mornings too. We’ve seen miracles that only God could take credit for. We’ve seen physical and mental healing. We’ve seen relationships rebuild. We’ve seen finances turn around. And connection that goes beyond a CrossFit class or church service. It happens here because the space is safe enough for people to be honest.
Your questions, answered
What does it cost? Nothing. If you jump into Bible study, the workout is free to non-members.
Do I have to be a gym member? No. Current members and non-members are both welcome at the workout and the study.
What if I miss a week? No problem. We’ll keep sending the reading so you can stay on track, and you jump back in whenever you’re back.
What if I start after Sept 5th? Come whenever you’re ready. We’ll get you caught up.
Can I bring a friend? Always. Bring them.
What if I don’t believe in Jesus or don’t go to church? No problem. This is a space to explore and ask questions, not a space to perform.
What if I have an injury? We’ll modify the workout to your ability and keep your movement pain-free.
What if I’ve never done CrossFit? Plenty of people at CrossFit & Christ are showing up for their first workout ever. We’ll show you exactly what to do.
What if I don’t have a Bible? No problem. We use the Bible app, it’s free, and we’ll point you to a translation that’s easy to read.
What if I don’t go to Jesus Church? There is no requirement or expectation to attend Jesus Church to be a part of this group.
