Ways to Give
Considering a Donation to Grace to You?
First of all, thank you for your generosity and your willingness to support our ministry of "Unleashing God's Truth, One Verse at a Time." We are honoured by the trust your gift demonstrates, and we are grateful for your commitment to God's Word and its teaching through books, radio, and the Internet.
- Where Does Your Gift Go?
- Your gift can help in many ways. It can help cover radio expenses—not only does it cost money for us to produce each program heard on radio and the Internet, but we also pay to be on many radio stations in the U.S. and abroad. Your gift can also help us cover day-to-day operating expenses and the cost of distributing resources free of charge by mail—John MacArthur offers a free book or CD by mail every other month, and hundreds of thousands of requests come back each year—a lot of CDs, a lot of books, a lot of ministry!
- What Happens Next?
- Once you've made your gift using your Visa or MasterCard via our secure server, we will send you, by post, a receipt along with a quick thank-you note from John. If for some reason you are uncomfortable giving through the Internet, you are welcome to call and make your gift by telephone (0800-3893958).
- Is Grace to You Financially Accountable to Any Organization?
- We take seriously our God-given responsibility to be a wise, honorable steward of every financial gift we receive. The E.C.F.A. symbol affirms our membership with the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability, a group of American religious and educational organizations committed to financial integrity. We are a charity registered with the Charity Commission in England and Wales (Registration No. 1150277).
Thanks again for your gracious, thoughtful support of Grace to You.

Estate Plan Giving Options:
-
Will or Trust
Learn MoreOne of the simplest ways you can leave a legacy for the next generation is by naming Grace to You in your will or trust. Your gift can be a stated dollar amount, a percentage, a specific asset, or the remainder of your estate after other distributions have been made. Through a gift from your will or trust, you will be able to maintain your support of Grace to You for generations to come.
The following information will help you designate Grace to You in your will or trust:
- Grace to You’s tax identification number is 95-3846510.
- Grace to You is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization operating as a California nonprofit corporation.
-
Sample bequest language to be used in your will or trust:
I give the sum of _________% of my estate* to Grace to You, Attn: Development Department, 28001 Harrison Parkway, Valencia, CA 91355, to be used for its work in teaching the Bible verse by verse through various media.
*You may substitute a dollar amount in place of a percentage.
- Please consult an attorney if you have questions about creating or amending your will or trust.
-
Retirement Accounts
Learn MoreAn excellent way to make a legacy gift is by naming Grace to You as a direct or contingent beneficiary of your retirement plan or IRA. Retirement accounts are typically the best assets to leave to charity as they are the most heavily taxed assets in your estate. If you were to name Grace to You as a beneficiary of your retirement account, you would avoid all tax on the amount distributed to Grace to You while providing a lasting legacy to the ministry.
Changing your beneficiary designation requires minimal paperwork and can even be accomplished online if your account offers that service. You’ll also enjoy the flexibility of making future adjustments easily, without the need of legal assistance, should you desire to make any changes.
-
Life Insurance
Learn MoreA gift of your life insurance policy provides a unique opportunity to support the ongoing ministry of Grace to You. Such a legacy gift is simple to arrange and does not require the services of an attorney or related legal costs. By designating Grace to You as the primary or contingent beneficiary of a life insurance policy, the size of the gift is assured in advance—it will not depend on the fluctuations of the market or other economic factors. Since the donation is made outside of your will or trust, it guarantees that your wishes will be carried out immediately and as intended. The policy will be included in your taxable estate when you pass away, but your estate will benefit from an estate-tax charitable deduction for the value of the gift to Grace to You.
-
Charitable Gift Annuity
Learn MoreIn partnership with the Barnabas Foundation, Grace to You offers a giving opportunity that can provide a fixed income to you for life with immediate tax benefits, while securing future support for our ministry.
Through a charitable gift annuity, your gift pays you an income for as long as you, or you and your spouse, live. The annual payment percentage is based on your age at the time the gift is made and will never change, regardless of market fluctuations.
When you establish a charitable gift annuity in exchange for a donation of cash or securities, you not only receive income for life, but typically you will receive a significant charitable tax deduction for a portion of the gift. In addition, a part of your annual payout will be tax free. After you are gone, the remainder of the gift will go to Grace to You to help us continue to be a source of clear and uncompromising Bible teaching.
Your Year-End Gift Makes a Difference
As we approach the end of 2024, I’m encouraged, enthusiastic, grateful, and filled with expectation about the future. We’ve had the joy of seeing the Lord transform lives this year. He has worked—and continues to work—through Grace to You, using this ministry as a conduit of spiritual blessing to the body.
As we look toward 2025 and new opportunities to serve, our plan is to continue doing just what we’ve been doing. I’ll keep preaching God’s Word, writing books, and recording new interviews. We’re planning new series for radio and television and new resources for our website and mobile apps, as we continue to look for strategic ways to put the truth of His Word into as many hands as possible.
But we can’t do any of that without help from God’s people. Now is an especially important time to hear from folks who are benefiting from this ministry and who want to have a role in making—and keeping—it available for others. The Lord meets about a quarter of our annual budget needs with gifts that arrive during November and December. What He provides now, through friends like you, will largely set the boundaries and pace for our reach in the year ahead.
So, if you share Grace to You’s commitment to divine truth, to the church, and to biblical ministry, and you are able to give, I encourage you to do so. You will be making a positive, profound difference in people’s spiritual health and growth. Thank you. I’m grateful to serve with you as we launch into 2025.
Love in the Truth,
Pastor-Teacher
A Word of Thanks from John
