Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

To help in the biblical education of youth and adults.

  • In 2022, DTBM prepared evangelism & discipleship courses, and filmed lessons that were edited and uploaded to our websites. These courses are designed to biblically train both NextGeneration students (youth) and Frontline students (adults). Our top three investments in fulfilling our program services in 2022 were: 1. VIRTUAL CLASSROOMS: We continued to enhance our main virtual classroom/studio cameras, audio equipment, and video processing services. A mobile studio was updated as well for use in remote classrooms in Europe, Asia, Canada, and Central America. We served classes with 500 registered Bible education students during 2022. 2. TRAINING CONFERENCES: We traveled for youth training conferences with 350 students in New York (August & October), 120 students in Florida (March), and 20 students in Korea (November). 3. ONLINE EDUCATION: We continued the design and preparation of the proposed DTBM Academy which will potentially host all the courses with audio, video, and printable study guides for our 36 key discipleship courses starting in 2023.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
