How Christian Health Sharing Ministries Help Cut Costs
Many families across the United States are paying thousands for medical insurance that doesn’t align with their values or support their wellness goals. Between skyrocketing premiums, confusing fine print, and limited coverage, traditional health insurance often feels like a system designed to fail you. That’s why more families are turning to Christian health sharing ministries. These community-driven, faith-based alternatives offer a simpler, more affordable way to manage medical expenses. And if you’re comparing options, WeShare stands out for combining cost-efficiency with a strong commitment to your holistic health and values.
What Are Christian Health Sharing Ministries?
Christian health sharing ministries are nonprofit organizations where members contribute monthly to help pay for one another’s medical needs. While not insurance in the traditional sense, members share costs to reflect biblical principles of compassion, generosity, and selflessness.
In many ways, health sharing is a modern way of approaching the heart of Acts 2:45: “They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need.” Christian health sharing exists to leverage whatever means each member has for the good of those in need.
How Do They Help Cut Costs?
Christian health sharing ministries are significantly more affordable than traditional insurance. Here’s how Christian health sharing ministries like WeShare can help families save money:
Lower Monthly Contributions
Many members pay hundreds of dollars less per month compared to standard insurance premiums.
Freedom to Choose Providers
You’re not locked into a narrow network. Choose the doctor or specialist that fits your needs, often at lower negotiated rates.
Simplified Structure
No hidden fees or sky-high administration costs. You pay your set monthly contribution, and that money goes directly toward helping other members.
Preventive Care Focus
Most ministries, WeShare included, encourage members to live active and healthy lifestyles, reducing long-term costs for everyone.
No Surprise Rate Hikes
Contributions are transparent and predictable, without sudden and unexpected increases.
Why WeShare Stands Out
WeShare goes beyond what you’ll find in other Christian health sharing ministries by caring for all aspects of your health. At WeShare’s core, you’ll find:
Faith at the Center of Everything We Do
Everything WeShare does and stands for is rooted in Christian values, from the way we support members to the way we structure our programs.
Simple, Transparent Model
No medical jargon that is impossible to understand. No red tape. Just clear guidelines and open communication about what’s shareable and what’s not.
Holistic Wellness Approach
We don’t just step in when you’re sick. We support whole-person health: physical, spiritual, and mental.
Modern, Member-Friendly Experience
Although our approach to health sharing is grounded in timeless values, we use technology and innovation to make your healthcare experience smoother, faster, and more empowering.

When you join WeShare, you’re not just signing up for a plan; you’re becoming part of a community that genuinely cares about your health and well-being.
Real Savings. Real Peace of Mind.
Take it from members like Rebecca from Iowa, who joined WeShare after years of expensive, frustrating insurance coverage:
“Huge savings for us, huge! Such an amazing experience that we wanted to make sure our other friends and family members applied for the same health care sharing programs through UHSM.”
Common Questions, Answered
