Biblical Based Wellness

Are you a Christian woman who loves God and knows there is more to abundance than what you are currently living?

Do you feel that “doing,” all the things isn’t bringing you closer to being whole or well?

Are you tired, exhausted, despite having a flourishing ministry, growing family?

Are you on the mission field, and have allowed yourself to take a back seat to all the other pressing needs around you?

You know what you need to be healthy, but given your current environment, culture you are in, changes in life you have trouble understanding how to find health and wellness for yourself?

The Bible talks about an Abundant Life (John 10:10) but for most Christian women abundance comes in the form of doing more things, being more things to more people, and as a result allowing our relationship to our Creator lack. At Sustained for the Call, wellness, health, wholeness is centered around our relationship with the one who made us, God.

Sustained for the Call is a community, where women with heart for ministry and need for health and wellness to flourish can come to learn, grow, and support each other as we change our thoughts on Wellness into a whole person experience, Body, Mind, Emotions, and Spirit.

You have the call, now you need to learn to sustain in it….

Sustained for the Call is a biblical Wellness ministry started by Dr. Kristi Ford-Scales, Bible believing, born again missionary, wife, mother, and medical doctor who understands what burnout, perimenopause, pursuit for health on the mission field can do to a person. By sharing her own knowledge she has obtained through training, education, experience, she loves to help other women flourish in their wellness, resiliency, and ministry for God.
