“In addition to enjoying the content provided through this ministry, we greatly respect the Tolpin’s decision to refrain from setting up their ministry as a non-profit organization. Any time a financial benefit is extended by the government, it comes with strings attached.
In order for the government to offer a benefit to the ministry and the donors, they expect something in return. This typically comes in the way of controlling the actions and speech of those receiving the benefit. Despite the unconstitutionality of that, it is still how our government is currently operating in many aspects.” - Mike and Angie Kroeger”
“WE CHOOSE TO STAND WITH THE TOLPINS”
To protect our ability to freely teach on the whole bible into the future, we haven’t taken the government benefits in being a non-profit. But our purpose is for huge Kingdom impact! click here to learn why that likely doesn’t matter for taxes.
We continue to step out in faith as we steward the ministry towards greater impact accross the globe. Only give if you can and the Spirit is prompting you to do so. But regardless would you pray for Be Courageous Ministry and our family?

“My husband and I have been encouraged by the Courageous Parenting Course and are currently working our way through the Courageous Marriage Series on the Be Courageous App. In addition to enjoying the content provide through this ministry, we greatly respect the Tolpin’s decision to refrain from setting up their ministry as a non-profit organization.

One of the best places for us to learn about political candidates and who we, as Christians, should be voting for, is from our church leaders. However, due to the Johnson Amendment that was put in place in 1954, churches and other 501(c)(3) organizations have been prohibited from supporting specific political candidates.
Also, a 501(c)(3) organization’s lobbying activities are required to be kept to a minimum.
In some instances, non-profits cannot discriminate. However, it is important for ministries to be able to openly discuss topics such as homosexuality and how it is presented in the Bible. By doing this, they are able to bring the truth to light, while demonstrating the love of God, without being in fear of losing a non-profit status.
As more and more regulations are put in place for non-profits, this can stifle their efforts.
By making a choice to not link their ministry with the government through non-profit status, the Tolpin’s are choosing to stand courageously, against the grain, to protect their ability to freely share the whole truth of the Word.
We choose to stand with them.
