“I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.” - Psalm 139:14
God made each of us in His image, yet unique in our own way. We have different abilities to serve the Kingdom and different needs. For example, our healthcare needs differ. We’ll talk with Lauren Gajdek today about a great way to help you pay your individual healthcare costs.
Lauren Gajdek is the Vice President of Communications and Media at Christian Healthcare Ministries, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.
Christian Healthcare Ministries for Every Christian
Christian Health Care Ministries, or CHM, is for every Christian, regardless of where you live in the country or your denominational background. It's the body of Christ coming together to share each other's health care costs. Their common bond is the love we all have for God and the salvation we have through Jesus Christ.
Healthcare needs differ and change over time. Whether you're a single person, a married couple, a younger or older married couple, have kids at home, or are an entrepreneur starting a business, CHM can go with you wherever you go. Even as you prepare for retirement, CHM can be a great solution for you.
CHM Program Options
Let's dive into the options available for different life stages:
- Bronze, $92 per unit, per month
- Silver, $138 per unit, per month
- Gold, $240 per unit, per month
- Senior Share, $115 per unit, per month
You can change your program and even have different family members on different programs, offering a lot of flexibility.
The Sense of Belonging with CHM
CHM is a Christian organization and a ministry first and foremost. They talk to people every day going through very difficult times, and participating in this program means receiving prayer and encouragement when you need it most.
As 1 Corinthians 12:27 says:
"You are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it."
Medigap and Medicare Advantage with Senior Share
CHM will also help with costs that Medicare doesn't cover. They do require Medicare enrollment if you're of the proper age, but if there's a gap in coverage, CHM can step in and help pick up those additional costs.

On Today’s Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:
- I'm concerned that a mass transfer to cryptocurrency could affect credit, interest payments, and the US dollar. I recently received an inheritance, and I'm worried about how this could impact the growth of my money. Should I look into alternatives like gold instead of keeping my money invested?
- My wife and I inherited an IRA from my mother, who passed away from COVID. I started with about $215,000 in the account, which has now grown to around $235,000. With all the market volatility, I'm feeling a bit nervous about it. We also recently built a house with a mortgage of around $230,000 at an interest rate of 2.85%. I'm trying to decide whether to use some of the IRA money to pay off the mortgage or keep the IRA invested and let it grow over the next ten years before withdrawing it. What would be the best financial decision for my wife and me?
- I recently received some Walmart stock, about $5,200 worth, as part of an inheritance from my sister. The attorney sent me the cash. How do I report this on my taxes? Does the attorney need to send me a 1099, or do I just need to report the $5,200 I received? I usually file my taxes, but I want to ensure I handle this inheritance properly.
