A diversified 📈 stock market portfolio is NOT true diversification. Many Christian financial advisors use Ecclesiastes 11:2 to justify the diversified stock market portfolio. However, this scripture does not have the modern-day stock market in mind. The biblical idea of investing involves close proximity to the businesses you invest in and relational investment as well as financial investment. Scripture encourages investing locally, not just in the very few, preferentially treated businesses in the stock market. In fact, the stock market includes only about .001% of all the businesses in America. Yet, that is where the vast majority of the wealth of Americans is directed, starving local, small businesses from resources that could make a tangible difference in local communities. This is not right. As Christians who are called to impact our communities we should be invested relationally and financially LOCALLY. Instead, we've allowed our resources to be syphoned to corrupt mega-corporations who are bent on sabotaging God's redemptive purposes. #RedemptiveEconomics Learn more here...

🤯 Wow, if there ever was a Proverb that speaks to our 🤥😈corrupt monetary system it is this one… “The uncultivated field of the poor yields abundant food, but without justice, it is swept away.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭13‬:‭23‬ ‭CSB‬‬

Proverbs 13:23 (CSB) - The uncultivated field of the poor | YouVersion

The uncultivated field of the poor yields abundant food, but without justice, it is swept away.

Basically, the 🌱 “uncultivated field” represents the humble or meager means of the poor that could produce a harvest 🌾 for them and help them change their lot in life. In fact, some commentators suggest that this is a reference to the productive potential of God’s creation, 🌍 available to anyone. ⚖️😡 However, injustice (corrupt economic/monetary policy) sweeps away that potential, frustrating the efforts of the poor and keeping them subjugated. Today, our corrupt monetary 💸system does the same. Inflation, debt-based currency, and unjust weights & measures ⚖️ rob the poor of their harvest before they can enjoy it. Wages don’t keep up. Savings are eroded. Opportunity is stifled. The tragedy isn’t lack of resources — it’s injustice distorting God’s design. 🏗️ Christians are called to build enterprises that resist this corruption — creating value, honoring🫡 just exchange, and unleashing abundance for families and communities. 👉 What would it look like if we stewarded money and business in line with God’s justice instead of man’s manipulation? Learn more about that through my new digital course, The Redemptive Enterprise…

If you came to Christ through emotional or intellectual coercion and not through the power of the Holy Spirit, then you will be reliant not on Jesus, but on the ones by whom you were coerced.

I’m learning the painful, yet freeing, lesson that God will work in spite of, or through, my failures as a parent.

Most Christians despise their eternal inheritance because they have mis-applied the lie that “money is the root of all evil.” How could we have an economic inheritance in heaven when money is evil? Instead, we assume heaven will be something akin to the perfect socialist commune where there will be no money and everyone will be equal. That’s not what the Bible teaches. Learn more about the profound biblical significance of money here, including its metaphoric nature to the eternal value of God’s people…

Money, like seed, should not be hoarded, but actively invested to generate wealth that blesses others and glorifies God. When it is comes to capital allocation, we should be acting like farmers, seeking to plant seeds for future harvest and God's provision.

Intrinsic value does NOT exist in anything…other than in God himself. He is the source of everything, the person in which literally everything else is dependent. He is the only thing that has inherent, intrinsic value.

Like fruit🍎, profit is both the yield and the means of future production. As Christian entrepreneurs, we’re called to reinvest the seed 🌱for the sake of God’s redemptive purposes. #RedemptiveEconomics #Pittsburgh
