How to afford Your "Daily Bread" AND Your Daily Meds

It’s a line from the Lord’s Prayer that we say without thinking: "Give us this day our daily bread." But for millions of Americans, that prayer has a silent, painful second half: "...and please help me pay for my pills."

I’ve met parents who are choosing between a full grocery cart and a full prescription bottle. In a country as wealthy as ours, that is a tragedy. It is also a stewardship crisis that we have to solve.

The Rising Cost of Staying Alive

The price of essentials is climbing, but the price of "staying alive" medications is skyrocketing. If you are on a fixed income, a $300 co-pay for a blood thinner like Eliquis isn't just an inconvenience—it’s a disaster. It forces you to make impossible choices that God never intended for you to make.

According to Bureau of Labor Statistics data, healthcare costs consistently outpace general inflation. You are being squeezed from both sides.

Prudence in a Broken System

Being a good steward of your household means looking for a better way. You shouldn't just "accept" the high price at the pharmacy window. There are paths designed to help you, but they are often hidden behind layers of corporate bureaucracy.

Seeking out an advocacy program is a prudent move. It’s about being a "wise manager" of the resources God has given you.

A Predictable Solution

What if your medication cost was as predictable as your tithe? That is what we offer. We move you out of the world of "retail pricing" and into the world of full advocacy. For a flat $40 membership fee, we handle the enrollment into programs that provide your medicine at no additional cost.

It means you can buy your groceries and your meds without the pit in your stomach. Let’s get back to a place where you can pray for your daily bread without worrying about the pharmacy.
