HEALTH & WELLNESS
A foundation of Christian Care Ministry is bodily stewardship as instructed in the Word in 1 Corinthians 6:19.
Our goal is to promote Biblical wholeness through leadership, resources, and programs of excellence that will guide, educate and inspire, enabling people to fully invest their time, talent, energy and finances in building the Kingdom of God.
Why Does Health Matter?
1. Collectively, cardiovascular disease (including stroke), cancer, and diabetes account for approximately two-thirds of all deaths in the U.S.
2. Most Americans (over 70%) are significantly overweight.
3. More than half of insured Americans take drugs for chronic conditions.
4. The lifetime probability of developing high blood pressure in America is 90%.
5. More than one in three female adults has some form of cardiovascular disease.
