True Jesus Church (TJC)

What True Jesus Church (TJC) does

True Jesus Church (TJC), legally the International Assembly of True Jesus Church, is a non-profit religious organization founded in 1917 in China and now operating across 16+ countries including the United States, Canada, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Germany, Argentina, India, and Cambodia. The church coordinates its global operations through regional General Assemblies and Coordination Boards, with 50+ physical church locations offering in-person worship services in multiple languages and dialects. Its core theological positioning emphasizes Saturday Sabbath observance, baptism in the name of Jesus Christ, footwashing as a sacrament, and speaking in tongues as evidence of receiving the Holy Spirit, positioning itself as a revival of the original apostolic church.

The organization operates a multi-platform digital ecosystem comprising mobile applications (TJC Mobile App, eRhema Bible App, Psallo Hymnal App on iOS and Android), an eLearning platform (learn.tjc.org), a training platform for church leadership, a publications store (order.tjc.org), a global live-streaming network using YouTube, Twitch, and WebEx, and content publications including Bible Study Guides, Manna Magazine, Religious Education Textbooks, and the Centennial Testimony Collection. The website tjc.org serves as the central hub, localized in 13 languages. Marketing relies on content marketing, social media (YouTube, Facebook, Instagram), a podcast (Meet Jesus), and a community-led go-to-market model where prospective members arrive through personal referrals, live streams, and word-of-mouth evangelism.

TJC is funded entirely through voluntary contributions from its congregation, with revenue streams including tithes and offerings, designated online donations to the Internet Ministry, and one-time sales of publications and materials through the online store. The organization employs approximately 70 staff while relying on a much larger volunteer minister base to operate its 50+ locations. No public pricing structure exists as worship services are free to attend; financial support is voluntary. The church is not publicly traded, has no parent company, and has no external investors.
