Justin Roethlingshoefer
“You can sing the gospel and still not live it.”
That’s the line that stopped Justin Roethlingshoefer cold when Brandon Lake and Phil Wickham told him they’d surrendered everything to God except their health. It was the one thing they were resisting, and the place their growth kept stalling.
In this conversation you’ll learn why your habits are just your identity made visible, and how that changes what you actually do on Monday. You’ll hear the simple evening rhythm Justin uses to fix the wrecked sleep most worship leaders run on, the three-two-one rule that gets you into the deep sleep that lets your body repair. And you’ll get the reframe on Romans 12: your health doesn’t die on the altar of your ministry, and rest is the obedience, not the weakness.
Justin spent over a decade as a health coach in the NHL before touring the world with Brandon and Phil, and he’s the founder of Holy Health.
If you’ve ever come home Sunday wiped out and wondered if you’re the only one losing sleep over the weekend, this one’s for you. When Sunday prep is handled, you have room to steward the rest. Worship Online gives your whole team a system to show up ready, so rehearsal refines instead of fixing. Learn more at https://worshiponline.com/

About Justin Roethlingshoefer
Justin Roethlingshoefer grew up in Canada chasing one dream: to play in the NHL. That path led him into elite sport from a different angle. After earning his master’s in sport performance and human biology, he pursued postgraduate work in functional medicine and served as a performance director in the NHL and NCAA. His work turned personal when he was told he would not live to see 35. Using the same system he had built for professional athletes, he redeemed his own health and refocused his mission on leaders who feel they have to trade their health for their calling.

He is a bestselling author and host of The Own It Show, and his recent work includes helping artists like Brandon Lake and Phil Wickham prepare for the physical demands of touring. In this episode, that becomes a window into what sustainable, healthy leadership looks like for worship leaders in any size room.
