Our Beliefs

These convictions do not merely describe what we do — they define how we think about capital, stewardship, and our role in God’s redemptive work.

“God never intended for us to simply be the objects of his love. We are also called to be the instruments of that love to others.”— Paul David Tripp
The Foundation

Four Core Beliefs

I
Ownership

God is the owner of all assets. He can accomplish his purposes on his own, but he graciously allows us to participate as shepherds of his assets, and we trust him with the results of our investment decisions.

II
Design

The world operates best the way that God originally designed it, and brokenness in the world is the result of our sin. He will ultimately restore the world to his original design — giving us glimpses of, and a part to play in, that restoration.

III
Influence

Concentrated capital is one of the tools that God uses to bless the world. We shepherd capital toward companies, funds, and deals that help restore our neighbors’ broken relationships with God, one another, themselves, and the systems of the world.

IV
Excellence

Financial return and redemptive impact should not be mutually exclusive. We believe institutions can have as much influence through their investments as they do through the spending of the return itself.
