This blog is a decade in the making. You’ll have to decide whether you categorize this as family history or a review, mostly I want to brag about the community of almost 400,000 people I trust with my family: Medi-Share.

Before I lose you to pictures of my family – because they’re adorbs! – let me take a guess at some things I know about you:

• Words like healthcare, premiums and copays all give you the sweats. You enjoy thinking about health insurance about as much as family vacations where there’s no wi-fi.
• If you haven’t already heard of health care sharing programs like Medi-Share, you would want to know about alternatives to insurance that save you over the half the cost of premiums, align with your values, and a community of Christians around the nation who would share in your medical costs.

A Decade of Ups and Downs

In 2011, I came to work for Christian Care Ministry, working for the incredible team that provides education to those interested in joining the leading health care sharing known as Medi-Share. I’ve built relationships with thousands of husbands looking to solve the health care problem for their families, wives worried about the “what if” scenarios that might happen to their sweet babies, business owners who want to provide a better solution to their employees, and pastors who are desperate to find a ministry solution that could help them move on the next chapter of the Great Commission. A decade later, I am still telling the story of what God started in 1993.

Medi-Share is an innovative health care sharing community that offers unique programs for the individual, couple, family, senior, and employer.

What I didn’t know in 2011 was that someone had secretly signed me up to become the poster-child for proof that health care sharing actually works. You’re welcome.

If you’re keeping score at home, those are six major events that impacted our family. God has walked with my wife and I through the birth of three children, losing a child, kidney cancer, and a horrendous gallbladder incident that borders on fiction. And yes, our two youngest are only eighteen months apart. That’s a little snug.

Through the highest of highs and the lowest of lows, God has provided for every one of our needs through the Medi-Share community.

Make The Switch to Medi-Share

Today, my wife and I enjoy the other side of the Medi-Share experience where we are enjoying great physical and emotional health, we have peace of mind knowing our monthly share payments are meeting the needs of individuals and families in a time of need, are able to pursue homeschooling because of the tremendous savings on health care, and rest in the comfort that this community will carry the burdens laid on us.

Medi-Share is the leading and most trusted name in health care sharing ministry, having shared and discounted in over $5.2 billion since 1993. That’s a big number. Beyond that, Medi-Share:

• Save many up to 50% or more
• Manages bills on your behalf
• Gives members access to a PPO network of over 900k providers
• Provides real community built around technology and medical cost sharing – the iOS/Android app is slick!
• Shares in 100% of eligible medical bills after your household meets the Annual Household Portion (AHP)
• Gives peace of mind knowing there are no annual caps, sharing limits or requalification
• Aligns with your values

Go online to see for yourself, or call one of my friends at 1-800-772-5623 who will answer your questions and pray with you. Seriously, they log over 80,000 hours of prayer every year.

Thank You, Medi-Share Members

If you are a Medi-Share member, I cannot express in words the gratitude our family has for you and yours. All three of our children have been born into the Medi-Share community, something we’re really proud of. It’s also not a stretch to say that God used you to save my life on two occasions. Each month, our community shares in over $50 million in medical bills. That is Galatians 6:2 lived out, friends.

There is only one community I trust with my family – Medi-Share.
