But it doesn't need to be. God has a purpose and a plan for all those entrepreneurial dreams and creative gifts he gave you.

You are not alone in this journey. Join other faith-driven entrepreneurs as, together, we identify the values, habits, and traits that empower us to successfully build businesses, serve our communities, and faithfully pursue a loving relationship with God; read stories that exemplify how those values, habits, and traits unfold in everyday life; and discover the potential God wants to unleash through our work. Each book purchase includes access to the eight-session Faith Driven Entrepreneur video series, a discussion guide to encourage conversation among peers, and an invitation to join a Faith Driven Entrepreneur Group to meet other like-minded entrepreneurs.

Do your investments align with your values? Alignment of values is increasingly in focus. You've seen it, for instance, when advertisers withdraw their support from a celebrity. But what about Christians and their investment portfolios? Do their investments support their underlying faith values?In the past, Faith-Based Investing (FBI) was not always looked upon positively, whether because of a perception of poor performance or the limits of uncertain capabilities. But this is a new day. Analytics have advanced, and outcomes demonstrate that it's possible to have great financial performance and investments that align with faith-based values.This book, led by Steve French, president of The Signatry, as general editor, points to this day in Faith-Based Investing. Twelve authors, experts in their fields, collaboratively present three life-changing realities:1) The competitiveness of returns on investments,2) The Christ-centered environment that encourages godly stewardship,3) Biblical screens that avoid supporting organizations inconsistent with your values.Stewardship is more than just growing and protecting assets that God has entrusted to you-how you invest also matters. Let's rewrite the reputation of Faith-Based Investing and rethink where we invest the resources God has entrusted to us."To become excellent stewards, we must first see God's ultimate vision for His creation and for His vast, royal family-beginning with the end in mind."-Rachel McDonough

This book examines the idiosyncratic risk, risk-return trade off and payout decisions for faith-based investors including Islamic Shariah compliant and ethical investors, who may be paying a cost for their belief system in the form of under-diversification of portfolios and additional monitoring costs owing to their unique risk profile. There is a growing number of investors who are motivated by social, environmental, and ethical considerations in their investment decisions. They apply a set of investment screens to include or exclude assets based on ecological, social, corporate governance or ethical criteria. This socially responsible investment (SRI), ethical investment or sustainable investment style is prevalent since religious or ethical values matter to investors even if the risk-adjusted returns are lower than those of conventional investments. The author addresses these issues for Islamic and socially responsible portfolios in detail by using proprietary data of Dow Jones Indices from the United States. The findings are a unique and valuable addition to the existing corporate finance, portfolio management and Islamic finance literature.

You can choose where you live, serve, learn, and give. What about where you invest? What if you could align your investments with God's heart? Imagine the impact that you could have. As Christians, we seek to make God a part of every decision that we make--the way we parent, lead, serve, and spend. But what if God has a purpose and plan for the investing dreams that he has given you? A community of ministries, businesses, entrepreneurs, investors, and fund managers have all experienced God awakening a movement, and it's bigger than simply avoiding "sin stocks." This movement is all about investing in human flourishing and driving capital into initiatives that stand for something significant. Faith Driven Investing defines this movement and helps you envision how your capital can grow and fund God's purposes in this world.

Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will be also. Mathew 6:21 (NLT) This is not a book about how God wants you to be rich, nor is it a book about the "money secrets" of the Bible. This is the true story of how one woman's journey to learn about Biblically Responsible Investing transformed her life and opened her heart to Jesus. As an author and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER, Cassandra Laymon researched the principles of biblically-based investing, and learned that she was unknowingly profiting from business practices that directly opposed her Christian faith. Do you know what companies you are invested in and what business practices you are profiting from? In this book Cassandra shares why it is important to know what you own, how to find out the truth, how you can align your faith and your investments and make your money matter."

Licensed CPA Loran Graham demonstrates with grace and humility why honoring God with our investment choices matters, and how biblically responsible investing (BRI) fits into the bigger picture of biblical stewardship. He addresses the tension between our stewardship responsibility to aim for the best return and our responsibility to honor the Lord by steering clear of investments that run contrary to biblical values.
