The Healthy Homes Story

Healthy Homes was born from a growing conviction: discipleship doesn’t start at the church—it starts at home. As a ministry of the United Pentecostal Church International, under the Pentecostal Resources Group, Healthy Homes builds upon the vision of UPCI Family Ministries with a broader, more intentional focus: equipping homes and churches for family discipleship. In a world where marriages are strained, parents feel overwhelmed, and the next generation is often spiritually unrooted, Healthy Homes offers a clear, biblical response. We believe that every home—regardless of background or brokenness—can be a place where faith is formed, families grow in grace, and Jesus is at the center. Through practical tools, shared wisdom, and a community of support, we’re helping families pursue holistic health—spiritually, relationally, mentally, physically, and financially.

The Healthy Homes Blueprint

At the heart of this mission is the Healthy Homes Blueprint, four biblical building blocks that serve as the foundation for everything we do:

  • Parent-Led Discipleship – Because parents are called to be the primary spiritual leaders in the lives of their children (Deuteronomy 6:6–7).

  • Gospel-Centered Marriages – Because the gospel is best lived out in the everyday rhythms of a healthy, grace-filled marriage (Ephesians 5:25–33).

  • Church-Aligned Next Gen Ministries – Because when ministries to kids, youth, and parents are aligned with the same goal, the church becomes a powerful partner in the discipleship journey (Ephesians 4:12–13).

  • Intergenerational Relationships – Because spiritual formation thrives when generations walk in faith together, each contributing to the life and growth of the body (Titus 2:1–8, 1 Corinthians 12:12–27).

These four building blocks shape our resources, our strategy, and our heart. Healthy Homes exists to help the church and the home walk in step—building families that follow Jesus for a lifetime.
