Welcome
Hi, I’m Mary
Hi, I’m Mary — a minister’s wife, mom of two boys, artist, and former missionary to Scotland. For three years, my husband and I served in youth outreach ministry there, an experience that deepened my passion for faith, community, and purposeful living.
I created Healthy Christian Home in 2015 when my boys were babies and I was seeking a creative outlet that blended my love for faith and wellness. What began as a simple blog from my kitchen table has grown into a vibrant online community that now inspires thousands of readers each month to build homes rooted in both spiritual and physical nourishment.
Through my writing, I aim to point families toward God’s design for wholeness—healthy, delicious food paired with encouragement for the heart and soul.
Over the years, I’ve been honored to be a featured writer for publications like Traditional Cooking School, Don’t Waste the Crumbs, and Equipping Godly Women. I’ve also had the joy of collaborating with trusted food brands such as Pure Flavor, Wheat Montana, and Nutrimill.
Today, Healthy Christian Home reaches a combined audience of over 50,000 followers across Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and YouTube, continuing to share practical, faith-filled inspiration for everyday life.
When I’m not creating in the kitchen or writing, you can usually find me sipping hot tea with a stack of books, sketching, or exploring nature with my husband and sons. And if there’s a new BBC series on, I’m probably watching it!

Where this all began
I grew up with a wonderful foundation in nutrition thanks to my mom, who taught me the importance of real food and living a healthy lifestyle. Those early lessons planted a love for wholesome cooking and natural living that still inspires me today.
Shortly after getting married, my husband Richard — my best friend and favorite preacher — and I moved to Scotland, where we served as missionaries for three years. We fell in love with the people, the breathtaking countryside, and the adventure of living out our faith abroad.
During that time, I began experiencing chronic health issues that would affect me for more than a decade. It was one of the hardest seasons of my life, yet it became a turning point. God used that journey to teach me how to truly honor the body He designed and to strengthen my faith in profound ways.
That experience became the heart behind Healthy Christian Home — a space where physical and spiritual health come together. In a world that often treats body and soul as separate, I believe they are deeply connected. Caring for our health can be a way to honor God, and nourishing our bodies goes hand in hand with nurturing our faith.
Today, I love blending my creativity with nutrition to craft wholesome recipes that bless families and point hearts back to the ultimate source of life and healing — God Himself.
