Nonprofit Overview

Causes: Christianity, Community Improvement & Capacity Building, Public & Societal Benefit, Religion

Mission: Faith Comes By Hearing is dedicated to making the Gospel of Jesus Christ available to people of all nations, tribes, and tongues through Audio Bible recordings and listening groups.  We provide Scriptures in audio form because over 70% of the world''s population are oral communicators and do not-or cannot-use the printed word in their daily lives.  We give these Audio Scriptures free of charge to individuals and listening groups because more than half of the world lives in poverty and cannot afford Bibles.  As of January 2017, we offer Scripture recordings in over 1,000 languages, with more recordings added each month.

I lived in Albuquerque for a few years and met one of their board members. He invited me to visit which I did. Met with the founder and his wife, (who are still actively involved every day), as well as several workers and toured the facility. Came home and researched them on Charity Navigator to discover they were the only charity in the religious category to receive a 100% perfect score for that year and have been 4 star, (highest rating possible), for 14 years since they were founded. I think they are now up to about 18.

Since then I've attended a couple of their annual meetings and met numerous employees. Probably the most sincerely dedicated group of Christians I've met. Every one of them could be making more money working elsewhere but they take their role in spreading the gospel very seriously. This has become my number one charity after my church and I strongly recommend those considering them to wade through all the reports and financial filings on Charity Navigator, visit their offices if possible or give them a call and ask about their work. I believe you will be equally impressed and become a supporter.

I have been donating to this ministry for well over a year.
They are great in communication back to me. Dollar for dollar this ministry reaches more people with the Gospel than any other. I have also used the solar powered Bibles they produce in Nepal, Sierra Leone Africa, and Ghana Africa. I only wish I could have taken more with me. Giving God's Word in the heart language is amazing!

I have visited the Faith Comes By Hearing Headquarters in Albuquerque, toured their facilities, reviewed their financials, and feel very comfortable supporting them on a regular basis.

I originally contacted this charity several years ago. I knew some missionaries that were helping to coordinate translation of Scripture into a people-group's "heart tongue on cassette tapes. Faith Comes by Hearing had a hand-cranked cassette player that was designed for use in low-technology areas. I was able to purchase and provide a few of the players for the project. After learning more about Hosanna/Faith Comes by Hearing my family decided to make routine contributions.

Though my contributions were relatively small (maybe $500 in a really good year) the organization provided excellent communication and ensured we were up-to-date on the activities and outreach. When my health failed and my family was unable to continue our small contributions, we were still provided full communication. Further, I have received several personal notes from staff members over the past years. In every case, I was encouraged and reminded that members of the Hosanna staff were continuing to pray for me.

My family's financial circumstances have changed as a result of a new job for my wife and this is the first organization that came to our minds as a deserving charity. We will be restarting our contributions immediately.
