Today, is the decision.

We just spent an hour on Day 3 of the Bible Health Foundation Live Workshop walking the 4 environments where toxic load fills every Christian home, the first 4 low-hanging fruit you can pick tonight, and the door to the next 41 days walking it together. The replay is above. The cart is open.

What you just watched (and what is still coming)

Day 3 is the decision, and we did not soften it. We walked all 4 environments where the bucket fills: kitchen, body care, home, and daily routines. We named the Three Non-Negotiables one more time: white processed sugar (and every alias), inflammatory foods (conventional dairy, conventional grains, seed oils), and artificial fragrances. We handed you the first cooking oil swap, the DIY deodorant recipe Mama Z has used for 20 years, the fragrance audit you can run tonight, and the phone-out-of-the-bedroom move that resets your sleep-wake cycle before sunrise tomorrow.

We told the story of Mama Z’s chemical burn at 14 and the Cherokee woman who taught her the original natural skincare. We told the Esther story, the 104-degree fever, and the night Dr. Z stopped marginalizing essential oils. We named the 126 chemical ingredients women apply to their skin every morning before they leave the house, and we named what to do about it tonight.

Then we opened the door. The 41-Day Bible Health Journey is the cohort that walks this with you for the next 41 days, live, in community, with Scripture as the anchor and your metabolism as the proof.

The Founding Member doors are open at $180 one-time, never offered again, and the cart closes Friday, May 22 at 11:59 PM ET.

The Decision: The 41-Day Path to Metabolic Health

As you learned across the 3-day workshop, Christians struggle with Metabolic Health. Even more than people that have no faith, which in counterintuitive to people of faith. It’s obvious through the data, growing waistlines, fatigue, irritability, and increased cardio-metabolic disorders that are robbing our brothers and sisters of the abundant life.

And this is where we feel God is telling us to start our six-week workshop series for Founding Members.

The Path to Metabolic Health is a 41-Day Bible Health Journey (6-weeks of live discipleship and workshops), and we walk you straight through it: the 7 R’s, the Three Non-Negotiables, the Four Environments of toxic load, and the Day 41 commissioning.

WALK THE NEXT 41 DAYS WITH US

Day 1 was the diagnosis. Day 2 walked the path. Day 3 is the decision. The 41-Day Bible Health Journey is where you walk it in real time with us and with a cohort of Christian families: 6 live Wednesday sessions starting May 20, 2026, plus the Day 41 commissioning on Monday, June 29. Founding Member doors are open at $180 one-time (never offered again) through Friday, May 22 at 11:59 PM ET.

If you join before Wednesday, May 20 at 2 PM ET, you receive 2 bonus months on your subscription.

Consult a qualified healthcare provider before using any health product or making changes to your wellness routine.

We walk all 7 R’s in order, anchored in Scripture and applied to the metabolic body God gave you. We unpack the Center for Bible Engagement research showing that 4 or more days a week of Scripture engagement is the strongest predictor of behavior change. We tell Mama Z’s 10-day water fast story and how she came off all 10 medications. And we walk you through the cherry tree, the low-hanging fruit you can reach for tonight, and how to pick the R that is calling you first.

If Day 1 was the diagnosis, Day 2 is the path. Day 3 turns the diagnosis into a decision and gives you exactly what to do in the first 41 days.

WHAT WE COVER

Dr. Z’s conversion story in Enoch’s living room and the John 10:10 prayer that became the founding moment of Bible Health

The cherry tree metaphor and why most health programs fail by handing you the 20-foot ladder on day one

Repent: the direction word that has to come before any swap

Renew: replacing the lies you have believed with Scripture

Remove: the difference between deprivation and discernment

Replenish: refilling the pantry with what God designed

Rest: why Sabbath is not optional for a metabolic body

Restore: the practices that rebuild what stress and toxic load tore down

Revive: what happens when the metabolism wakes up

Mama Z’s 10-day water fast and weaning off 10 medications

The Center for Bible Engagement research: 4 days a week of Scripture engagement is the threshold for behavior change

How to pick the R that is your low-hanging fruit and start tonight

SCRIPTURES REFERENCED

Romans 12:2, Acts 3:19, 2 Corinthians 7:1, 1 Corinthians 10:31, Proverbs 24:3-4, Luke 16:10, Isaiah 58, John 10:10, Hosea 4:6

TRY THIS TODAY

Pick the R that is calling you. Repent (decide and turn). Renew (open Scripture 4 days this week). Remove (one toxic product). Replenish (one real-food swap). Rest (one boundary on the calendar). Restore (one practice you have been skipping). Revive (one prayer of declaration over your body). Take one step on it tonight, before bed, before anything else. The path back to metabolic health starts with one R, walked one step, today.

WALK THE NEXT 41 DAYS WITH US

Day 1 was the diagnosis. Day 2 walked the path. The 41-Day Bible Health Journey is where you walk it in real time with us and with a cohort of Christian families: 6 live Wednesday sessions starting May 20, 2026, plus the Day 41 commissioning on Monday, June 29.

We name the 5 lies the church has believed about the body. We walk through the bucket of toxic load every Christian family is living inside. We name the 126 chemical ingredients your morning routine puts on your skin before you have even read your Bible. And we land on the verse that pulls the whole conversation back into focus: God’s people are not supposed to be destroyed for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6).

If Day 1 is the diagnosis, the next 41 days are the path. Day 2 walks the 7-step path Scripture gives us to heal. Day 3 turns the diagnosis into a decision and gives you exactly what to do in the first 41 days.

WHAT WE COVER

The 5 lies the church has believed about the body

“Everything in moderation” and why that line is not actually in the Bible

Gluttony, the acceptable sin of the church

The confusion trap and why the wellness industry is engineered to wear out the saints

Mama Z’s story: 10 medications and only four foods in her twenties

The bucket analogy and the 4 environments where toxic load fills

The numbers that wreck people: 86,000+ chemicals, 168 ingredients on women’s skin, indoor air pollution

The 3-step rebuttal for the “everything in moderation” conversation

SCRIPTURES REFERENCED

Hosea 4:6, John 10:10, Galatians 5:9, Philippians 3:19, Galatians 6:7, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, John 8:32, Daniel 7:25

TRY THIS TODAY

Walk through your home in your mind and ask which environment is the most full: kitchen, body care, cleaners, or daily habits. Tonight before bed, walk to that environment, open one cabinet, read three labels, and throw out one product that does not belong. Do not replace it yet, just notice what has been there. The first step is awareness, the second step is the swap.

I just went live for the first time on Substack, and I need you to know something: that was the most alive I’ve felt about ministry in years.

No script. No filter. My phone was at 8% battery. Mama Z was napping with the littles, and I just sat down and let it out. If you watched the replay, you know exactly what I’m talking about. If you haven’t watched it yet, press play above and come back to this when you’re done.

But here’s the thing: I want to put into writing what God put on my heart during that Live, because some of this is too important to live inside a video that people might scroll past.

Christians don’t need more health trends; we need Biblical clarity.

Bible Health isn’t about perfect diets or complicated protocols. It’s about doing your best to honor God with the body He gave you. And the side effects are wonderful! If that feels right to you, come join us.

Why I’m Here (and Why It Matters to You)

Right before I went live, I posted a five-minute video on Instagram. Within seconds, Instagram sent me a notification: “Videos over three minutes may not reach as many people.”

Translation: we’re going to suppress you because you’re not making us money with short-form content.

That was my confirmation. I’m a public health researcher. I’m a long-form content writer. I’ve written three published books with Penguin Random House. For me to condense the message God has given us into a 30-second reel is painful. I’m not built that way. And quite frankly, you deserve more than 30 seconds.

Substack is different, and I need you to understand why.

Join the mission. Share Bible Health with someone who needs it.

The Algorithm Is Not Your Friend

Instagram, Facebook, TikTok: they don’t make money by connecting the right reader with the right content. They make money by keeping you scrolling. And what keeps people scrolling? Controversy. Anger. Outrage. Debate.

Some of our most viral content on Instagram right now is reaching tens of millions of people. Content designed to reach believers who love God, who question the status quo, who believe Jesus came that they may have the abundant life (John 10:10), who test all things and hold fast to what is true (1 Thessalonians 5:21).

But here’s what the algorithm does with that content: it deliberately puts it in front of people who hate God. People who don’t know Jesus and don’t want to know Him. Why? Because those people comment. They engage. They argue. They scroll longer. And the algorithm thrives on that cycle.

I want you to see that for what it is. That is demonic. That is a playbook straight from the enemy. The accuser of the brethren, manipulating technology to create chaos and division. That is what social media has become on those platforms.

Substack is the opposite. Substack makes money when the right reader finds the right author, because once someone pays for a newsletter, Substack gets their 10%. Their entire business model is built on connecting you with content that actually serves you. Not content that triggers you.

That’s why this is home.

Non-Toxic Essentials for a Healthier You

Pro Tip: Start with the everyday products your family actually uses, then make cleaner swaps from our non-toxic essentials list on Amazon. Shop here.

What We’re Building Here

Sabrina and I have spent the last decade helping more than 2 million families take their health back. Three bestselling books. Hundreds of recipes and remedies. PDFs, devotionals, teaching content that we’ve poured everything into. And after almost five years away from social media, after the censorship, the bans, the attacks that came during and after COVID, God called us back.

But He didn’t call us back to the same place. He called us here.

Bible Health is something completely new. This isn’t the Natural Living Family blog. This isn’t an Instagram page. This is a Bible Health revival, and I believe God is putting us at the forefront to pioneer it. Bold statement? Yes. But I’ve never been one to hold back when God puts something on my heart.

What we do here is simple: we help the body of Christ receive clarity for their health where there’s confusion, and experience the abundant life where there’s been death and destruction staring them in the face.

I see myself like an Apollos. Paul planted the seeds. Apollos watered (1 Corinthians 3:6). That’s what we are. We’re nurturers. We’re here to evangelize health to Christians, because the truth is, God’s people should not be destroyed for lack of knowledge. And they are. Every. Single. Day.

If you’ve felt that gap between your faith and your health, you’re in the right place. Bible Health gives you the Biblical clarity to close it.

Who This Is For

Everyone is welcome here. Always.

Like church, the doors are open. But I want to be real with you: our primary mission is to minister to believers. To help our brothers and sisters in Christ receive clarity, confidence, and a plan for their family’s health that is rooted in Scripture and backed by research.

If our content plants a seed in someone who doesn’t know Jesus yet, praise God. But that’s not the starting point. The starting point is you. The person reading this right now who loves God, questions the status quo, and knows in your gut that there has to be a better way to steward the body He gave you.

Whether we have a thousand subscribers or a hundred thousand, we love you and we’re here to serve you.

More energy. Better sleep. Less inflammation. A home that heals instead of harms. The clarity to hear God’s voice and the strength to actually walk out what He’s calling you to. These are the “side effects” of Bible health. :)

What’s Coming

I’m sitting on 19 articles ready to publish. Mama Z has been behind the scenes building a goldmine of recipes, remedies, and practical guides. We have devotionals, PDFs, resources that we’ve created over more than a decade of ministry. And we don’t want to overwhelm you. We want to serve you.

Father, I thank You for everyone reading this right now. Bless them abundantly. Guide them to the truth of Your holy Scriptures. Their lives matter. Their health matters. Their family and their ministry matter. Your will for them is health and wellness in every area. Even though You allow us to go through struggles, sickness, heartbreak, and hardship, You are in control. And what the enemy has meant for evil, You mean for good. Help us together as a community to rise up, to find You, to find truth, to find peace, and to find abundance in spirit, soul, and body. In Christ’s name, amen.

As always, hope & pray that you experience the abundant life.

Let’s talk creatine.

Here’s what nobody is telling you about what’s actually in that powder: how it’s made, what the research really shows, and why I’ve never taken it and never will.

This isn’t fear-mongering. It’s chemistry, discernment & the perfect study to help Christians navigate viral health trends.
