I am over 60 and take an RX for diabetes.
Medishare would not “insure” me unless i payed an enormous supplement which made it just as expensive as “insurance”.
I retorted that this was a fine way to ‘take care of the widows of the church” and I was given the excuse that they were “a young ministry” and maybe they would have something for the poor widows in the future.
Funny, the early Church was barely off the ground and the entire structure was altered, including the creation of the Office of Deacon”, in order to take care of the widows.
Medishare boasts that it has been in effect for 30 years.
Phooey on them. I will take my chances with Folk remedies and Faith healing before I ever call them again.
Sorry to hear about your experience with medishare. and i do believe that as a church we will need to look after each other more as things go along. how many of the hospitals were started by churches. i don’t know the count but i would guess a majority — if not the actual hospital, the schools behind them probably were.
