2 years into my marriage, I got laid off. Living in a tiny apartment with my new wife (and a pink slip) was scary. As I felt God calling me down the entrepreneurial path, one of the scariest things was losing my health insurance from my employer. Our insurance wasn’t great, and we still had to pay a good amount out of pocket, but I was just so nervous about trying to pay for it all ourselves as self-employed entrepreneurs. I had heard about this health insurance alternative called Medi-Share and began investigating it. I had also heard that many members were paying up to 50% less than they did with traditional health insurance, which intrigued me. But even with that, I was FAR more interested in keeping my family safe than saving a few bucks. I investigated it for weeks and had multiple calls with the Medi-Share reps before we decided to abandon traditional health insurance and become Medi-Share members. And now, here we are over 14 years later, still with them. And the question I sometimes get is… Why have you stuck with them?Here are just a few things that come to mind off the top of my head:
We pay $284/month for MedishareBecause everyone always wants to know, our family of 5 pays just $284/month through Medi-Share, and I know from talking to many that you might be paying a lot more. I knew we were saving a lot using them, but now I am seeing how this is one of the best financial decisions we’ve made in the last 14 years. Here is a peek at our monthly bill from them…. You probably have 100 other questions…If so, I have a full Medishare review here that I have been updating since 2009 that will answer a ton of questions.

Hey Reader, Sometimes following God feels like failing. And a few years ago, we felt that way with our book, Simple Money, Rich Life. BUT GOD. I thought the story was over, but God didn't. In today's episode, we share the behind-the-scenes details of what has happened with this book and many things we've never shared publicly before. If you have obeyed God and it felt like a failure, I pray this encourages you... And if you have the book or plan on getting it, I think you'll enjoy the...
Hey Reader, (Start by reading: Nehemiah 1:4-11 and 2:1-8) I’ve noticed a weird tension in my own life: I’ll pray hard about a situation, then feel a little guilty for also wanting a plan. As if the truly spiritual move is to pray and wait, and pulling out a spreadsheet means I don’t actually trust God to come through. Nehemiah would find that strange. When he heard Jerusalem’s walls were rubble and her gates burned, he sat down and wept. He fasted, and then he prayed one of the most beautiful...
Hey Reader, Praying over my finances has done more for me than budgeting ever has... and I don’t say that lightly. I love the practical stuff: Budgets, spreadsheets, tools, apps, plans, investment strategies. All of that matters. But as much as I believe in practical financial steps... I believe prayer will do more for your finances than any spreadsheet, app, or tool every could. If you’re all in on that idea, I actually wrote a 30-day financial prayer book that I think you'll love. But if...
