About Agape Source Financial

Agape Source Financial Corporation was born out of a desire to see people move beyond money stress and into greater stability, confidence, and hope.

We know that money struggles are rarely just about money. They can affect a person’s peace, family, health, choices, confidence, and sense of direction. We also know that many people are doing their best, but still need guidance, accountability, and support to take the next step.

Agape Source Financial Corporation exists to come alongside people with compassion and practical help. We believe in education, mentorship, personal responsibility, encouragement, and the power of walking with someone instead of leaving them to figure it out alone.

 

Our Mission

To help individuals and families move from feeling as though they’re endlessly climbing financial mountains to finally finding solid ground—where stability, dignity, and hope feel within reach—through practical financial education, steady mentorship, honest accountability, and support that is both compassionate and deeply human.

“I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.” Ezekiel 36:26

Founder Story: Marsha Mars

The heart of Agape Source Financial comes from founder Marsha Mars’ own story.

In October 1999, Marsha was facing one of the hardest seasons of her life. She was under heavy financial strain, her family was facing the loss of their home, and she did not know where she and her sons would go next.

During that month, Marsha experienced fear, surrender, trust, and ultimately provision in a way that marked her life. Just when the lights were about to go out, an unexpected gift arrived. Soon after, a rental home became available. What looked impossible began to open one step at a time. Marsha knew that something beyond this world had reached down and grabbed her by the hand. Satan had every intention of knocking her out of the game, but God!

That season taught Marsha that help can arrive with grace, not judgment. It also taught her that people do not need to have everything figured out before support can meet them where they are and help a person move forward.

Agape Source Financial Corporation was built from that conviction: that people facing financial challenges need more than a quick fix. They need guidance, encouragement, accountability, compassion, and the encouragement to believe that their current situation does not have to be their final story.

√ Dignity

We believe people should be met with respect, not shame.

√ Practical Help

We believe support should include tools, education, and realistic next steps.

√ Accountability

We believe lasting change often requires encouragement, structure, and follow-through.

√ Compassion

We believe people need someone willing to walk with them, not simply point out what went wrong.

√ Stewardship

We believe resources should be handled with wisdom, transparency, and care.
“God met me where I was, and we worked from there. That is the heart of Agape Source Financial Corporation. We want to meet people with compassion and help, right where they are, and empower them to take the next step toward hope, stability, and ultimately freedom.”
