The Organization is a cooperative undertaking of local churches with shared doctrinal beliefs to aid in the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ through motivating God's people to exercise Biblically responsible financial stewardship. The Organization is ultimately organized to expose Jesus for all He is, all He can do, and what he means. The Organization believes that before financial stewardship, all Christians are called first to be stewards of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Organization believes that one way of being faithful to the Gospel of Jesus Christ is through the giving of financial resources so that these resources can be used to grow the Kingdom of God. The Organization's specific purpose is to benefit churches, ministries, individuals, and qualified charities by communicating the truths of stewardship and financial investment of God's money according to Scripture and God-honoring principles. The Organization operates a Christian broadcasting station, FISM.TV, and a radio ministry, which aim to serve as a resource for churches and their individual members, to aid them in understanding Christian principles about money, and to increase their knowledge and capabilities for handling money consistently with Biblical teachings. The Organization also aims to expose Jesus to non-believers. The Organization produces hours of original programming weekly, including Financial Issues, A Moment In History, and FISM News. These programs are designed to help listeners think biblically about their finances and how to use investments in a way that is honoring and pleasing to God, and to share about news stories from a Biblical worldview. Additionally, the Organization airs Christian programs developed by local cooperative churches.Ultimately, the Organization strives to educate churches, Christian organizations, and individuals in a clear, practical and unbiased manner so that Christians have a better understanding of their responsibility to handle their finances as wise stewards. The Association's prayer is that through its collaborative work with local churches, Christians will have a greater ability and desire to give to God's work.
