Helping women find Jesus
in the middle of their struggles with eating disorders and other food and body image challenges.

OUR MISSION

FINDINGbalance exists to help women find Jesus in the middle of their struggles with eating disorders and other food and body image issues.

OUR VISION

To create safe spaces for women to walk toward freedom in Christ-centered community resulting in a Kingdom impact and cultural shift.

OUR KEY VERSE

“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”
Galatians 5:1 (NIV)

FINDINGbalance is a Christ-centered 501(c)(3) nonprofit ministry helping women find freedom worldwide.

When you partner with FINDINGbalance, you’re making a Kingdom impact and cultural shift. Help us create a safe space for women to walk toward freedom in our Christ-centered community.

What if we told you that food is not the issue? What if it goes much deeper than that?

You can experience freedom through God’s grace, mercy, and love. 

If controlling food, exercise, your body, or how others perceive you has become a coping mechanism in your life, we invite you on a journey to walk with Jesus together to:

  • uproot lies and replace them with biblical truth,

  • experience that you are not alone,

  • and learn ways to safely deal with sadness, grief, anxiety, and shame so you can live the abundant life you were created for.

Based on scripture, we believe Jesus wants you to:

Two women smiling and holding hands, standing against a white brick wall.

  • Know that you can come as you are, welcomed and accepted, no matter your size or struggle.

  • Move from isolation into a safe, Christ-centered space where you can truly belong.

  • Experience His joy in community and sense that He is with you and for you, even in the middle of the struggle.

  • Step fully into His purpose for you right now, just as you are… you don’t need to “get it together” first.

  • Carry this freedom and truth with grace, so others can know it, too.

These women were set free because they found Jesus in the middle of their struggles with food and body image through FINDINGbalance.

Nicole’s Life Transformed Through Christ-Centered Support

“FINDINGbalance has always had a special place in my heart. In 2019, when I started counseling with an eating disorder (ED) nutritionist, they were the first ED group she told me about. I have loved and followed them ever since. The daily devotions, prayer groups, and podcast are so life-giving and full of hope. I’ve gotten to know a few of them along the way and call them friends; they are all caring, amazing people with purpose and passion to help those in need. I can’t even express how much they’ve helped me!”

“Prayer is very close to my heart. It’s a time to share the hard stuff in our lives and be vulnerable in a safe place. The women who run the prayer groups are loving, kind, caring, and compassionate, and they love Jesus! Thank you, FINDINGbalance, for moving the Kingdom forward and giving God the glory and praise!”
