    • It is once again my joy and privilege to present LIFE’s Annual Report. In this 60th year of ministry and marriage, Betty and I have so much to be thankful for, especially friends like you who have supported the work of the ministry around the world. You are part of our LIFE TODAY family of believers, committed to sharing the light and love of Christ with a world in need.

    Presenting the Gospel of Jesus Christ and revealing His love in action through the mission outreaches are our calling. And the results are lives changed spiritually, hungry children fed, the poor given clean water and those once ensnared in human trafficking set free. These are all mission outreaches you help make possible through your gifts of love.

    As we near the end of this year, we continue to pray for a strong finish, seeking to accomplish all God has called us to do. And as we look forward to 2024, please remember . . .

    . . . we LOVE sharing LIFE with you!

    The ministry undergoes an extensive annual audit performed in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards (GAAS) with financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). A copy of this audit is available upon request.

    James Robison and the employees of LIFE Outreach International receive compensation, subject to the approval of the Board of Trustees, based upon independent wage and salary surveys.

    All contributions to the ministry and mission outreaches are important. Donations of any size are vital and will be used to their maximum purchasing power in North America and abroad.

    Federal Law requires us to report a measure of on-air ministry time as fundraising. As we minister to the viewer, we teach that it is more blessed to give than to receive, we share if you want to experience life fully, you must share life freely. Therefore what we often present as ministry, we respectfully understand the government may treat as fundraising.

    LIFE Outreach International is a longtime member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) and complies with their established standards of fundraising and administration practices.
