Overview
Mission
Lumen's mission is to be a source of restoration for christian culture by communally encountering the trancendentals: truth, goodness and beauty. This will occur through providing musical events, lectures, presentations, any other artistic and intellectual mediums that have been passed down for generations. We intend to engage in the stewardship of christian culture through the communication of the transcendentals in order to bring our community closer to god and to teach each other. Lumen's hope is to shine light into the darkness presented by modernity and turn the tide on the direction of american culture.

Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
