What will be the creative action of Christians in our time who have been entrusted with meaningful financial resources? -- At last week's investor workshop, we heard from Executive Director?Patrick Farrell as he shared on 'Covenantal Stewardship: Why Investing is an Invitation into Transformation and Belovedness.' We discussed key concepts and guiding principles for investing in a way that honors God, redeems creation, and transforms the investor to look more like Jesus. PAC members built out their own personal investing thesis and portfolio strategy, driven by identifying unique callings and skills based on their story. We are thankful for such a meaningful community working together to leverage stewardship for God's redemptive?purposes in the world. Special thanks to our host?Cooley LLP!
