Dr. Z here.
I just went live for the first time on Substack, and I need you to know something: that was the most alive I’ve felt about ministry in years.
No script. No filter. My phone was at 8% battery. Mama Z was napping with the littles, and I just sat down and let it out. If you watched the replay, you know exactly what I’m talking about. If you haven’t watched it yet, press play above and come back to this when you’re done.
But here’s the thing: I want to put into writing what God put on my heart during that Live, because some of this is too important to live inside a video that people might scroll past.
Christians don’t need more health trends; we need Biblical clarity.
Bible Health isn’t about perfect diets or complicated protocols. It’s about doing your best to honor God with the body He gave you. And the side effects are wonderful! If that feels right to you, come join us.
Why I’m Here (and Why It Matters to You)
Right before I went live, I posted a five-minute video on Instagram. Within seconds, Instagram sent me a notification: “Videos over three minutes may not reach as many people.”
Translation: we’re going to suppress you because you’re not making us money with short-form content.
That was my confirmation. I’m a public health researcher. I’m a long-form content writer. I’ve written three published books with Penguin Random House. For me to condense the message God has given us into a 30-second reel is painful. I’m not built that way. And quite frankly, you deserve more than 30 seconds.
Substack is different, and I need you to understand why.
Join the mission. Share Bible Health with someone who needs it.
The Algorithm Is Not Your Friend
Instagram, Facebook, TikTok: they don’t make money by connecting the right reader with the right content. They make money by keeping you scrolling. And what keeps people scrolling? Controversy. Anger. Outrage. Debate.
Some of our most viral content on Instagram right now is reaching tens of millions of people. Content designed to reach believers who love God, who question the status quo, who believe Jesus came that they may have the abundant life (John 10:10), who test all things and hold fast to what is true (1 Thessalonians 5:21).
But here’s what the algorithm does with that content: it deliberately puts it in front of people who hate God. People who don’t know Jesus and don’t want to know Him. Why? Because those people comment. They engage. They argue. They scroll longer. And the algorithm thrives on that cycle.
I want you to see that for what it is. That is demonic. That is a playbook straight from the enemy. The accuser of the brethren, manipulating technology to create chaos and division. That is what social media has become on those platforms.
Substack is the opposite. Substack makes money when the right reader finds the right author, because once someone pays for a newsletter, Substack gets their 10%. Their entire business model is built on connecting you with content that actually serves you. Not content that triggers you.
That’s why this is home.

What We’re Building Here
Sabrina and I have spent the last decade helping more than 2 million families take their health back. Three bestselling books. Hundreds of recipes and remedies. PDFs, devotionals, teaching content that we’ve poured everything into. And after almost five years away from social media, after the censorship, the bans, the attacks that came during and after COVID, God called us back.
But He didn’t call us back to the same place. He called us here.
Bible Health is something completely new. This isn’t the Natural Living Family blog. This isn’t an Instagram page. This is a Bible Health revival, and I believe God is putting us at the forefront to pioneer it. Bold statement? Yes. But I’ve never been one to hold back when God puts something on my heart.
What we do here is simple: we help the body of Christ receive clarity for their health where there’s confusion, and experience the abundant life where there’s been death and destruction staring them in the face.
I see myself like an Apollos. Paul planted the seeds. Apollos watered (1 Corinthians 3:6). That’s what we are. We’re nurturers. We’re here to evangelize health to Christians, because the truth is, God’s people should not be destroyed for lack of knowledge. And they are. Every. Single. Day.
If you’ve felt that gap between your faith and your health, you’re in the right place. Bible Health gives you the Biblical clarity to close it.
Who This Is For
Everyone is welcome here. Always.
Like church, the doors are open. But I want to be real with you: our primary mission is to minister to believers. To help our brothers and sisters in Christ receive clarity, confidence, and a plan for their family’s health that is rooted in Scripture and backed by research.
If our content plants a seed in someone who doesn’t know Jesus yet, praise God. But that’s not the starting point. The starting point is you. The person reading this right now who loves God, questions the status quo, and knows in your gut that there has to be a better way to steward the body He gave you.
Whether we have a thousand subscribers or a hundred thousand, we love you and we’re here to serve you.
More energy. Better sleep. Less inflammation. A home that heals instead of harms. The clarity to hear God’s voice and the strength to actually walk out what He’s calling you to. These are the “side effects” of Bible health. :)

A Prayer for This Community
Father, I thank You for everyone reading this right now. Bless them abundantly. Guide them to the truth of Your holy Scriptures. Their lives matter. Their health matters. Their family and their ministry matter. Your will for them is health and wellness in every area. Even though You allow us to go through struggles, sickness, heartbreak, and hardship, You are in control. And what the enemy has meant for evil, You mean for good. Help us together as a community to rise up, to find You, to find truth, to find peace, and to find abundance in spirit, soul, and body. In Christ’s name, amen.
As always, hope & pray that you experience the abundant life.
