In Episode 53 of Joy Hour, Tom Lyman continues Part 6 of the 8-part Built Men series with a session on winning the body.

Built Men is a growing brotherhood of faith-based men who meet virtually every Tuesday night, stay connected throughout the week, and challenge one another to grow spiritually, mentally, physically, financially, and relationally with God at the center. This series gives listeners a look inside the conversations happening in that brotherhood, where men are learning to stop drifting, take ownership, and build lives with discipline, purpose, accountability, and faith.

This episode is built around 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 and the reminder that the body is the temple of the Holy Ghost. Tom talks about why the body is not separate from purpose, and why physical discipline affects spiritual clarity, leadership, energy, confidence, and consistency.

This session is not about perfection or comparison. It is about stewardship. A man does not have to overhaul his entire life in one day. He can start with one walk, one push-up, one healthier choice, one better drink, one simple discipline repeated consistently. Simple beats extreme, and daily beats occasional.

Tom also shares from his own story of recovery, sobriety, aging, energy, and learning to care for the body with a clearer why: to serve God, lead family, reach others, and have the strength to keep showing up. The body matters because there is still work to do.

This episode challenges men to move intentionally each day, choose one improvement in eating or hydration, and tell another man how they are taking ownership of their health.

What would change if you treated your body like it was connected to your calling?
