What Men's Ministry Network does
Mission
Mobilizing christian males to advance christ's kingdom as authentic, spiritually mature men who are intentional disciplemakers in their families, churches, and workplaces.
As stated on its FY2022 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Men's Ministry Network is a growing movement of men dedicated to intentionally following jesus and his command to multiply spiritually mature disciplemakers within local churches of the greater chattanooga area. In support of pastors and men's lay leaders, Men's Ministry Network calls men out of a passive life in the pews to become the leaders god intended them to be in their families, churches, workplace and community. We believe this kind of leadership is the key to building up our churches, our cities and our nation. Most negative societal issues can be traced back to a man who does not understand who god designed him to be in key areas of his life. 1. Men's Ministry Network continues to partner with twr's every man a warrior ministry to promote the use of this resource for discipling men.

Mmn also hosted an evening dinner conference designed to challenge men and churches from around the region to engage in this growing disciplemaking movement. 2. Men's Ministry Network also provides an online training resource called (re)think disciplemaking. This series enables subscribers to better…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $30k to $26k (−15%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
94% of MEN'S MINISTRY NETWORK’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $4k → $43.
3 of 3 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of MEN'S MINISTRY NETWORK’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
MEN'S MINISTRY NETWORK leans on a few funders — its largest provides 67% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund MEN'S MINISTRY NETWORK.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2020 98% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
100% of MEN'S MINISTRY NETWORK's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $6k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
