Overview

Mission

Burning hearts is a christian religious ministry calling students and adults, young and old, to live principled lives of "prayer, purity, and purpose."

What it reported doing in 2025

Burning hearts began with a primary focus on college campuses, but now has become more nationally focused. It hosts regular gatherings for students, young adults, and congressional staff, to pray, study the bible, and encourage one another. "the burning hearts 21-day adventure" program is used to help each individual continue to live for god and stay accountable through a simple strategy: (1) give god one hour per day in prayer and bible reading; (2) live joyfully above the standards of the culture; and (3) share your faith with those who are searching for god.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 94% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Liabilities are high compared with assets.
