Gifts that reduce taxes

You can reduce your taxes by giving stock, real estate or other assets to share the truth of God's Word.

Most charitable gifts to Love Worth Finding are given in the form of cash because it is so familiar. However, this may not be the most cost-effective way for you to give.

You may be able to reach more people with the Good News — and experience significant tax savings — by giving non-cash assets including stock, real estate and other assets to Love Worth Finding. You will help share Adrian Rogers’ timeless Bible teaching to bring people to Christ and mature them in their faith.

Most Americans carry only 10% of their wealth in the form of cash. The remaining 90% is held in the form of non-cash assets, such as stock, real estate, business interests or commodities. By considering all the resources God has entrusted you to manage, you can multiply the impact of your generosity and eliminate unwanted costs and stress.

You can also give non-cash assets to establish a life income gift. You’ll receive an immediate tax deduction at the time of your gift and then receive ongoing income for you and/or your loved ones. When you no longer need the income, the remainder of the gift will go to Love Worth Finding.
