Dear Church Family and Friends of Athens Universal Life Church,
For the past 14 years, our ministry has operated with a simple, unwavering commitment: to provide free daily devotionals, sermon notes, Bible study resources, and a welcoming spiritual home for everyone who visits us. In all that time, we have proudly never asked for money or financial donations. Our goal has always been to ensure that the Word of God remains accessible to all, without any barrier of cost.
However, as our ministry continues to grow and serve a broader audience, the practical realities of maintaining a digital presence have evolved. Today, I am writing to share that we have recently added a Ministry Donations option to our website.
This is not a decision we have made lightly. The sole reason for this new step is the steady increase in rising server costs, domain fees, and essential server maintenance required to keep our website secure, fast, and reliably online for you. To continue offering free Bible study e-books, daily devotionals, and sermon messages without interruption, we now need the help of our faithful community.
The Biblical Heart of Giving
The Bible speaks beautifully about the heart behind giving. It is never about pressure or obligation, but about joy, faith, and partnership in God’s work. As the Apostle Paul reminds us in 2 Corinthians 9:7 (NIV):
“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.”
Furthermore, Proverbs 11:25 tells us, “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.” When you give, you are not just helping to cover a technical bill; you are actively participating in refreshing souls, spreading the Gospel, and keeping the doors open in this digital sanctuary.
Your Gift is Tax-Deductible
We want to be fully transparent and ensure you have peace of mind regarding your generosity. Athens Universal Life Church is a recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. This means that any financial contribution you make is fully tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. We handle all donations with the utmost scrupulous care, integrity, and stewardship, honoring the sacred trust you place in us.
