When I started the Restore program I was very nervous since I had always had difficulty losing weight. In addition, I had trouble exercising due to an old ankle injury and I wondered whether this program could work for me. I was also nervous about working with a consultant, fearful of being judged or of not having any say in what I ate. All these fears were unfounded, I discovered, as I watched the Lord work in my life through the Restore program. My consultant was patient, prayed regularly with me, and had an uncanny ability to quote just the right scripture at the right time. I benefited greatly from her knowledge and from the accountability for my eating choices through keeping a food diary. As I began to lose weight and inches I was relieved and felt more confident that my body could actually let go of excess pounds. I wasn't destined to be fat, as I had often felt.

But my most important loss was not physical. I lost some of my deeply held attachment to food. Even before Restore, the Lord had begun to deal with my idolatry of food. Now through the program he worked in my heart to love Him more and to see that His love for me will not allow me to eat myself to death. His heart-cleansing deepened my discernment and has changed my walk with Him. Now, the Lord has given me opportunities to share these things with friends who are changing their eating habits as well. One of my friends has even been able to get off diabetes medicine!

I hear God calling his children to bodily stewardship and I have personally experienced the blessing of answering the call. I pray that those whom God leads to read my testimony will be encouraged to follow Him, knowing that "The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him" (Psalm 25:14) I've heard it said, "Those who fear the Lord fear nothing else, but those who do not fear the Lord fear everything else." I started the program with fear of failure, judgment, weight gain... But I'm graduating with a deeper fear of the Lord and renewed excitement to learn the secrets He illuminates as we walk together.

Being on this program is the first time that I have started a workout plan and stuck with it. I have learned so much that has helped me develop a more healthy and realistic outlook on my personal fitness. Before, I always knew that I needed to do something but I did not know what to do. I would take a stab at a few things for a day or two and then quit, thinking that it was not possible for me to change. I am still not where I want to be but I am a lot closer than ever before and I know that with time, I can make it. Thank you so much for helping me!

I just wanted to share with you and the rest of the staff. I am an investor, entrepreneur and student of economics as well as former editor and publisher of business publications. For years, I have studied the looming health care problems that our country is facing and will continue to face. And I am absolutely convinced that the only long-term solution that will truly change our country’s health crisis, as well as the subsequent economic crisis that follows it, will be Medi-Share’s biblical approach to healthcare and long-term health restoration.

At some point, after politicians and leaders continue to experience long-term failures in this area that will lead to crisis after crisis, they will be forced to look at successful models. And it’s during that time that I believe Medi-Share, the city on the hill, will shine so bright that the world will not be able to ignore its proven biblical approach. Medi-Share and its affiliates will be a witness and testimony to not only our nation, but the rest of the world, for the glory of God!

So, with each new client who is being restored to long-term health, like myself, you are continuing to build a vast multitude of transformed lives as witnesses to God’s ways and methods. Not only that, but each transformed life is a witness to family members, friends, colleagues, and neighbors of the power of God applied in a systematic and practical way that dramatically improves quality of life and longevity, not to mention the economic savings from good health.

I am glad that I get to be one of those witnesses!

I hope this doesn't sound strange, but something as simple as using Flax Seed on Oatmeal, salads, and in the shakes is still something I do. Thanks Angela!!! My wife is also a partner with me and it helps to have her support. Another thing has changed. We are staying away from milk and sugar as much as possible. I think what Medi-Share has helped with more is this thing about lifestyle eating. At our age, we want more than just maintenance although maintenance is good.

The Medi-Share Restore program gave me the motivation to make the dietary and lifestyle changes that I knew I should make. Katie was very helpful and encouraging.

This program really helped me with my eating habits and exercise. I will never go back to my unhealthy, old habits. I still fill out my daily tracking charts and never vary in weight within four pounds. I will not eat dairy or meat but maybe twice a month.
