Temple Care believes that total health and wellness are built upon ten essentials: pure air, pure water, life-giving food, sunshine, adequate exercise, sufficient sleep, an attitude of gratitude, a giving heart, temperance, and trust in God.

Temple Care believes that life-giving foods come primarily from the garden. A healthy diet is one centered on fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains and legumes, consumed in forms closest to their original state and free of chemical additives.

Temple Care believes that invasive health care measures are sometimes necessary. At times, surgery and other invasive medical procedures may be necessary lifesaving measures.

Temple Care believes that healing comes from the body's own God-given healing mechanisms.

Temple Care believes that spiritual health is of ultimate importance. As important as physical health is, it will not fulfill God's purpose for man. Man was created to love, obey, and serve God. Of what profit is it if an individual gets well physically and yet has neither peace with God nor a sense of his purpose in life?

Temple Care believes that the ministry of a Christian health practitioner is to help the individual remove physical, mental, and spiritual roadblocks in order to fully live the life God intended for him or her.
