Step 5: The Investment Plan
Put your money to work with wisdom and purpose for a more secure future
The Investment Plan is where your money starts working for you. "Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come" (Ecclesiastes 11:2), Scripture's own case for diversification. You'll work through the Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25) and build a long-term approach to asset classes and compounding.
Saving alone doesn't build wealth, it just protects what you already have. Investing does. This step also covers screening out investments that contradict your values, so growing wealth never means compromising your faith.
With debt paid off (Step 3) and your family protected (Step 4), your money is finally free to grow, wisely, ethically, and with purpose, for the long term.
Yes. This step is built around Ecclesiastes 11:2, "Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight," and the Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25), which teaches that we're called to grow what we've been given, not bury it.
This step covers how to screen out investments that contradict your values, such as gambling, alcohol, adult content, or weapons, so you can invest with a clear conscience.
No. This step focuses on building a long-term approach through asset classes and compounding, principles that apply whether you're starting small or already have savings built up.
This step doesn't hand you a single answer, it teaches the framework: diversification, values-based screening, and a long-term mindset, so you can make wise decisions as your situation changes.
