Mission and programs · 2025

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 2025 by having five events: a Fourth Quarter event in March for 31 men, a Wild at Heart event in April for 438 Men, a new Ladder of Love event in October for 401 women, a new Guide School event in October for 175 men, and an Advent Gathering in December for 55 women. 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 52,991 individuals, free weekly audio and video podcasts available with 22,000,000 all-time impressions, and 30,000 average impressions per episode, monthly newsletters to 25,660 constituents and weekly email updates to 105,242 constituents. Wild at Heart, The Series is a new four-episode video series produced by the ministry and was released on YouTube Wild at Heart in October of 2024. It features a prologue and four videos of men who have undergone transformation through the message of Wild at Heart. Each episode has averaged over 35k views. There have been over 2,000 completed Wild at Heart Local events and Captivating Local events held by Wild at Heart allies since the inception of the program. The ministry has a Facebook group page that has over 1,661,985 engagements another Facebook page for women with 5,738,879 engagements, and a Wild at Heart Instagram feed with 62,500 subscribers. Wild at Heart has a YouTube channel with 52,894 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 more than 956,310 accounts with over 19,415,115 completed pauses over the past 2 years. The Pause app has been updated with special programs which features content and meditation on John Eldredge's recent books Resilient, and Experience Jesus, Really with 35,416 completions of the Resilient program and 32,355 completions of the EJR program in the last 2 years.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
