Every person was created by God with purpose, rhythm, and grace. Made For This is more than a book title — it’s an invitation to live fully in what matters most: Faith, Family, Fitness, and Finance. Each of these areas becomes a reflection of the gospel when surrendered to Christ.
Here are a few people whose lives inspire us to live what we were made for — and a quote that helps anchor their example.
Faith: Voddie Baucham
Few teachers integrate theology and life quite like Voddie Baucham. As a pastor and professor, he challenges believers to root their faith in biblical conviction, not cultural comfort.
“The modern church is producing passionate people filled with empty heads who love the Jesus they don’t know very well.” — Voddie Baucham
Living Made For This faith means knowing Jesus deeply — and letting that knowledge shape every other part of life.
Family: Tim Tebow
Tim Tebow’s story continues to resonate because his platform always leads back to purpose. Whether serving through the Tim Tebow Foundation or championing adoption and special needs care, his example of family goes beyond bloodlines — it’s about creating spaces of belonging.
“It’s pretty easy for me to say that the most important thing in my life is my relationship with Jesus Christ, followed by my relationship with family. And football’s later on down the line.” — Tim Tebow
He reminds us that family is God’s first mission field, and that faith finds its truest expression in how we love those closest to us.
Fitness: Stephen Covert
Stephen Covert integrates strength training and spiritual formation. His journey as a Christian bodybuilder shows how physical discipline can mirror spiritual obedience. He talks openly about temptation, humility, and perseverance both in the gym and the Christian life.
“Stephen Covert, 25, is a Christian fitfluencer … collected more than 100,000 followers on Instagram through posts about following Jesus within the sport.” — Men’s Health article
In Made For This, fitness is about more than exercise — it’s the stewardship of energy, strength, and focus so that we can serve God and others wholeheartedly.
Finance: Dave Ramsey
For decades, Dave Ramsey has helped millions find freedom through biblical financial principles. His message is simple but powerful: stewardship is worship. When we manage our resources with generosity and wisdom, we reflect the heart of a God who provides abundantly.
“You must gain control over your money or the lack of it will forever control you.” — Dave Ramsey
Money becomes mission when it’s surrendered to God’s purpose.
