GET $500 REWARDBecause this message needs to get out to all people - God is FOR your marriage and your family!!!
When Andrea and I started Marriage By Design, it was because we knew first hand the pain and suffering that follows when we choose to ignore God's design for marriage - and we saw SO MANY around us that were experiencing that same level of anguish. So many people - even (and especially) Christians - seem to have such a poor understanding of what the Bible says about marriage. We felt called by the Lord to remedy that by providing regular, Bible-based discussion on God's design for marriage and family, and then letting the Holy Spirit run with it whoever He sees fit. And run with it He has! We have gotten messages and email from all different parts of the United States sharing with us how the Lord used Marriage By Design to lead them away from infidelity, choose to reject divorce, and get serious about building a marriage and family according to God's design.
We simply ask you to consider partnering with us financially to push this mission forward. Andrea and I are committed to continuing to put out this podcast indefinitely. Your contributions help us to maintain and upgrade our equipment and cover the costs of our website and other social media. Any partnership that you are willing to give will be put to use in beating back the liar and deceiver who is telling couples all over the world that there is not hope for their marriage or their family.
Join with us, and let's take the fight to him!
Completely Funds Our Website & Video Hosting Service
While we enjoy the ease of being able to post our videos on YouTube, Rumble, Vimeo, and all the rest, we recognize the reality that these "free" video hosting services may not always be available to us. It is really important to us that we do not lose all of the material that has been posted over the years in the event that our message becomes unwelcomed on any of those services. So, we invested in a website/video hosting service that will allow us to post our videos up ourselves and is not dependent upon the rules and regulations of larger distribution platforms.
In addition to covering the cost of this hosting service, this pledge amount allows us to maintain our Podbean website, which allows for our videos to be sorted and searched by those looking for information on a specific topic as well as comment, ask questions, etc.
Marriage By Design Swag
A number of you have expressed interest in having the Marriage By Design log on a shirt or on a hat to be able to spread the community love to those around you. We have heard you! If we can get our funding level to $100.00 per month, then we will creat and link to a shop with a few Marriage By Design swag items that you can purchase as you desire.
Obtain 501(c)(3) Tax Exempt Status For Marriage By Design
We never intended this channel to be something that we made money running. It is our sincere desire to simply champion the cause of God's design for marriage. That being said, I know there are a number of potential donors - particularly corporate donors - that would like to see that we are, in fact, tax exempt and not-for profit. Totally unerstandable. Little known fact - it costs $600.00 to file the documentation needed to become tax exempt. Fortunately, Nathan is an attorney so we wouldn't need that additional expense to prepare the documents. But still, $600.00! If we can get our monthly support to this level, then we will take the plunge and apply for 501(c)(3) tax exempt status.
Dream Come True - We Would Be Able To Purchase MarriageByDesign.com
From the very moment that we realized we needed our own website for the show we wanted to own the MarriageByDesign.com domain name. Unfortunately, it is very expensive. Nonetheless, if we can get the funding up to this level, then we can afford to purchase the domain and get some professional graphic design work to incorporate our Podbean website into our very own domain. This is the dream!
