"Witness to Fitness" Author Donna Richardson-Joyner Graces the Cover of EEW Magazine

Jan. 14, 2013 - PRLog -- Christian fitness guru Donna Richardson-Joyner’s first book, Witness to Fitness: Pumped Up! Powered Up! All Things are Possible!  has been named EEW Magazine’s official 2013 “Best Book of the Year” ™—the publication’s highest honor for a debut written work from an African American Christian author. Read the author’s feature in Empowering Everyday Women Online Magazine at http://buzz.eewmagazine.com/donna-richardshon-joyner.

Built upon the foundation of Matthew 19:26 and the words of Jesus—“With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible”—Witness to Fitness contains the kind of Bible-based, faith-filled motivation that Richardson-Joyner, creator of best-selling DVD’s “Sweating in the Spirit” and “Body Gospel” is known for churning out.

“To read Donna’s book, Witness to Fitness, is to enjoy a spicy gumbo of motivation that stirs up a fire in your belly, and sets your soul ablaze,” said Dianna Hobbs, EEW Magazine’s President & CEO.

Richardson-Joyner, the self-labeled “Cheerleader for Jesus” told EEW Magazine, “I’m so excited! It’s been a year of writing. And now I have given birth to my baby. And this is what I’ve been doing for years in terms of integrating mind, body, and spirit.”

The fit and fabulous 55-year-old featured on the January 2013 cover of EEW, talked exclusively to the faith-based magazine about her personal struggles, harrowing climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro, and how her faith in God has been instrumental in her success. She also unveiled her time-tested methods to help others overcome weight loss and life challenges through faith.

“I try to educate and empower people to see that losing weight and becoming healthier is not just physical. It is spiritual and it is mental and it is emotional,” said Richardson-Joyner.

In addition to the cover story feature, EEW Magazine's “Witness to Fitness” book giveaway runs now through February 14, giving 10 readers a chance to win a free copy of the book. For more information visit http://buzz.eewmagazine.com/witness-to-fitness-giveaway.
