Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

This organization exists to restore men and women to live from their heart - as God's intimate allies - by recovering the treasure of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, entrusting that message to the people who have been transformed by it, and to train them to do the same for others.

  • Wild at Heart promotes the message of recovering the treasure of the Gospel, setting men and women free to live from the heart as God's intimate allies which was accomplished in 2022 by having three events: a Become Good Soil Intensive for 154 men in August, a Captivating event for 381 women in October and a Wild at Heart Retreat for 424 men in November. The ministry delivers its message in many formats: through resources (books, study guides, audio and video downloads) available on the website www.wildatheart.org, answering emails and mail correspondence, providing free daily readings (devotional readings) sent out electronically to 75,800 individuals, free weekly audio podcasts available with 66,700 downloads, monthly newsletters to 20,700 constituents and email correspondence to 88,300 constituents. There have been hundreds of BASIC events and CORE events held by WAH allies since the inception of the program. There are two short online teaching video resources called the Wild at Heart Experience and the Captivating Experience that have had 6,500 plus completions each after its release in March 2021. Tribe membership is free and now totals over 18,800. The ministry has a Facebook group page that has over 148,000 Likes," another Facebook page for women with 108,000 Likes, and a Wild at Heart Instagram feed with 25,400 subscribers. Wild at Heart has a YouTube channel with 15,100 subscribers. The ministry reaches out to men in their thirties and forties through a Become Good Soil email and a podcast list of 9,600. WAH has a ministry to millennial men with an And Sons" e-mail that goes out regularly to a list of 8,700, and with a written magazine that goes out to 500 subscribers twice a year. And Sons also has 10,600 Instagram subscribers, a Facebook Page with 11,200 likes and 7,200 YouTube channel subscribers. The free One Minute Pause app for meditations was new in 2020 after the release of John's book Get Your Life Back and now has 256,000 accounts with 750,000 completed pauses over the past 90 days. The Pause app has been updated with a special program called "30 Days to Resilient" which features content and meditation on John Eldredge's recent book Resilience, Restoring Your Soul in These Turbulent Times which released in June 2022.

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.
