Overview

Mission

Our main ministry focus is reaching the world with the best FREE resources for emotional healing and spiritual growth in English.

What it reported doing in 2025

We have published 16 books in English which are available through Amazon's Kindle Publishing--the only thing the public has to pay for. We are not an educational organization: we are a Christian ministry. Our purpose is to educate the public about emotional healing and the spiritual life so they can recover from the tragedies of abuse in their past, among other things. Many of the people we minister to through the web and in person cannot afford to pay for services or resources or make donations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
