We reach hundreds of thousands of listeners and viewers around the world every month and we have big plans for next year. But the financial support that sustains this mission currently comes from fewer than 1% of those who enjoy our podcasts and videos. If we’re to continue producing this life-changing content and expanding to reach new people, we urgently need new supporters to join us and current supporters to increase their assistance. This Advent and Christmas—the time when nonprofits like ours receive most of their support for the year—we’re asking you to prayerfully consider becoming part of the StarQuest mission or increasing your support.
