Foundations matter

A home is a beautiful thing, and it starts with a strong foundation. Healthy Home is an ongoing effort to help you build a strong spiritual foundation and pass it on. Every building that lasts has a firm foundation. The same is true for lasting faith. 

Build your foundation

Building a foundation of faith requires effort, focus, and resolve. The good news is that you don’t have to do it alone and that MANY resources are here to help! It’s never too late to start, and there is always a next step. Start today by looking at the resources below and choosing something that can help you grow!

Pass it on!

As you build your lasting faith, we want to help you pass it on! The people around you are counting on you! We can all lead others to know and walk with Jesus. Having a healthy home means taking personal responsibility for seeing your faith passed on! Talking about your faith is not always easy, but it’s crucial. We want you to have ways to talk about and model faith to those in your home and those around you!

We Grow. We grow others.

Healthy Home focuses on five questions that, when we understand God’s answers, will transform us and help us be healthy Christ-followers. Consider your answers and look to the resources below for help arriving at a solid biblical answer for each. 

The 5 Questions

  1. Who is God and what is truth? 
  2. Who was I made to be? 
  3. Who are my people and where do I belong? 
  4. Do I pursue healthy relationships?
  5. Why am I here and what is my purpose?

Love Nudge App

App to strengthen your marriage​

Between busy schedules and long days, expressing love can sometimes fall by the wayside. The things that say “I love you” seem to either not be said or not get through. As a result, our relationships can quickly erode, and the spark can fade. Love Nudge is a fun, habit-forming app that helps you intentionally express love in the most meaningful ways to your partner. Designed for real-life connection, Love Nudge takes the concepts of Dr. Gary Chapman’s #1 New York Times best-seller, The 5 Love Languages®, to the next level. You and your loved one can learn each other’s love languages, exchange encouragement, set and track activity goals, and monitor the levels of each other’s love tanks for better communication and intimacy.
