What is Spread Truth Ministries?

Spread Truth Ministries is a non-denominational Christian ministry that ministers to, encourages, and challenges senior adults to embrace the fulfilled life God intends for them. Our goal is to support the spiritual vitality of Christian seniors by helping them live the dynamic, Spirit-filled life that expresses the love of Christ to family, church, and culture.

ANNUAL NYC TRIP

Why do you take hundreds of people from across the country to New York City each year?

NYC is part of our flagship Go Tell program that prepares Christians to share God’s Story with everyone, everywhere. At nyc, participants gain hands-on training for a lifetime of loving, confident gospel witness. Vast multi-cultural encounters
in New York City provide unparalleled opportunities for demonstrating the love of Jesus. Participants return home with an urgency and enthusiasm to share the beauty of God’s Story—and they are equipped and confident to do so.

What does it cost to participate in NYC?

At minimum, participants commit to covering the costs related to hosting nyc. Most participants raise funds to cover their fee. However, funds raised above and beyond the minimum send the gospel even further by supporting our programs that make God’s Story known every day of the year throughout the world.

FINANCIALS

How much of your organization’s funding comes from the products you sell on your store?

By design, a very small portion of our funding comes from product sales.

We do our best to provide as many resources as possible at no charge, with costs covered by our donors.

Is my donation tax deductible?

Yes. We are a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization, and your donation is tax deductible within the guidelines of U.S. law.

Is Spread Truth a member of a financial accountability group?

Yes, Spread Truth is an accredited organization of the ECFA (Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability) abiding by the Seven Standards of Responsible Stewardship™, drawn from Scripture.

OUR GOSPEL WORK

How do you select partners?

We make God’s Story known through individuals, churches, organizations, or agencies that share our passion and vision for the gospel. Our team has developed an assessment process based upon a set of weighted criteria to determine the potential fit. Criteria can include things like potential number of people reached through the relationship, the deployment location, impact for unreached regions, or technology presence in the region.

How do you choose countries to minister to and languages for translating your gospel tools and resources?

Because many of our solutions are accessible for free online, we have already seen the gospel go into 180 of 196 countries. Our desire is to reach every country, every people, every language. Currently, our translations are driven by relationships with people on the ground where we know we can have a great impact upon a particular people, area, or country.

Can I get free resources?

Yes! Our online digital resources are already available free of charge, made possible through the generosity of our donors. Please contact [email protected] to share your need for other resources and the opportunity for us to work together to expand the reach of the gospel. Also, our training resources and tools may be purchased through our ONLINE STORE.

I need your resources in a certain language. Can I suggest a translation?
