A statement in the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) website, submitted by MarriageToday says its mission is "to produce, air and distribute religious and educational seminars, books, audiotapes, videotapes, radio and television programs, and literature to further the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ."[3] The MarriageToday website says the organization, a Christian nonprofit entity, performs a variety of functions:
