Help Someone Else Take Their Next Faithful Step

Many Church Encourager resources are offered freely so that cost does not become a barrier to encouragement, spiritual formation, biblical learning, ministry discovery, or church flourishing.

Your generosity helps make these resources available to the next person, leader, student, or church that needs them.

Pay It Forward

Generosity That Multiplies

What You Have Received Freely Can Become a Gift to Someone Else

Perhaps an Encourager Pathway helped you understand yourself more clearly. Maybe a Christian practice strengthened your walk with God, an Online Bible Institute course deepened your understanding of Scripture, or a ministry resource encouraged you during an important season.

You were able to receive that help because others believed these resources should be accessible. Paying it forward continues that cycle of generosity.

A gift of any size helps us create, maintain, and improve free Christian formation resources for people and churches around the world. It also helps provide technology, learning platforms, assessments, educational materials, community spaces, and ministry support without placing unnecessary financial barriers in front of those we serve.

What Your Generosity Supports

One Gift Can Strengthen Many Parts of the Ecosystem

Your support helps us encourage individuals, equip leaders, resource churches, and expand access to Christ-centered formation.

Encourager Pathways

Supporting DISC, GIFT, GATE, PATH, WISE, and LIFE assessments, personalized profiles, and practical discovery resources.

Christian Formation

Expanding Christian Practices, Sacred Rhythms, Daily Bread Intake, prayer resources, and tools for lifelong growth in Christ.

Biblical Education

Helping the Online Bible Institute continue offering accessible theological education and ministry training to students worldwide.

Community and Encouragement

Providing welcoming spaces where believers can encourage one another, reflect together, pray, learn, and grow.

Church Flourishing

Developing resources that help pastors and churches strengthen leadership, formation, engagement, stewardship, and mission.

Future Resources

Creating new courses, assessments, facilitator tools, research, technology, and ministry resources for the wider Body of Christ.

How It Works

Generosity Creates Access

Paying it forward is not a fee for something you have received. It is a voluntary expression of gratitude and generosity that helps someone else receive encouragement and support.

Some people give once after completing an assessment, course, or formation experience. Others choose to support the ministry regularly. Both forms of generosity are meaningful.

There is no required amount. Give prayerfully and freely according to your ability and sense of God’s leading.

1

Receive

Engage with a resource that helps you learn, grow, discern, or serve.

2

Respond

Consider whether God may be inviting you to support the work that made the resource available.

3

Multiply

Your generosity helps another person or church receive the same opportunity.

“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7
