Faith Driven Investor

What Faith Driven Investor does

Faith Driven Investor is a non-profit educational ministry operated by Faith Driven Movements, a 501(c)(3) organization incorporated in Delaware and headquartered in Dallas, Texas. Founded in 2019, the platform serves Christ-following investors and the broader Christian business community by providing free, donation-supported content and community resources aimed at aligning investment capital with religious values. Its core offerings include a weekly podcast, video courses, a foundation course, a published book ("Faith Driven Investing"), video stories, a mobile application, a monthly newsletter, bible reading plans, a group-finder for local communities, and a facilitator hub for group leaders.

The core technology is a web-based content delivery platform with an associated mobile app and a free two-sided Marketplace, relaunched in 2025, that connects faith-driven entrepreneurs and fund managers raising capital with accredited and qualified-purchaser investors. The organization is structurally donation-funded: it charges no platform fees, no carry, and no transaction fees, and runs an annual conference (the 2026 "Seeds vs. Silos" conference on February 6) with in-person and online watch-party formats. The customer base is deliberately horizontal across six segments — Retail Investors, Accredited Investors, Qualified Purchasers, Fund Managers, Financial Advisors, and Communities/Churches — and the organization operates within a wider Faith Driven Movements ecosystem that includes Faith Driven Entrepreneur, Solving the World's Greatest Problems, and Halftime.

The revenue model is a freemium non-profit: charitable contributions, not commercial pricing, sustain operations; the only commercial line items are conference tickets (early bird $35, regular $100). The organization explicitly positions itself as a "movement" rather than a product company, with a brand anchored by founder Henry Kaestner and prominent Christian leaders and public figures contributing content, and it claims a global audience of thousands of engaged investors across the US, UK, Singapore, and emerging markets.

Direct peers

• Kingdom Advisors: Network of Christian financial advisors, planners, and accountants providing biblically-anchored financial advice. Directly comparable as a faith-aligned investing/advisory community serving the same Christ-following investor audience.
• Halftime Institute:
• Christian Investment Forum: Membership community connecting Christian investors and investment funds. Directly comparable in audience (faith-driven investors and fund managers) and in facilitating capital deployment between the two groups.
• Faith Driven Entrepreneur: Sister platform within the Faith Driven Movements ecosystem that equips Christ-following entrepreneurs. Highly comparable given shared mission, content model, and donor-supported structure, with the entrepreneur counterpart being a near-mirror of the investor platform.
• Generous Giving: Faith-driven initiative encouraging biblical generosity among Christians. Comparable in mission and donor-supported content/community model, with thematic overlap around mobilizing Christ-following capital.
• Crown Financial Ministries: Christian financial education ministry offering biblical stewardship courses, counseling, and resources. Comparable as a faith-based financial education platform with similar content/community model and donor-supported structure.

Broad incumbents

• Ramsey Solutions: Large Christian personal finance media and education brand (Dave Ramsey). Comparable in blending faith-based content with personal finance/investing education, but operates at significantly larger scale and broader financial scope.
• National Christian Foundation: Major Christian-focused giving and philanthropic services organization serving high-net-worth donors. Comparable in mobilizing faith-driven capital and serving sophisticated Christian investors and families, though focused on giving rather than investing education.

Others

• Biblica: Christian ministry focused on Bible publishing, translation, and engagement. Comparable as a donor-supported faith-based content organization, though with a different mission focus.
• The Christian Post: Large Christian digital media outlet. Comparable as a faith-based content platform monetized through donor support and reaching broad Christian audiences, though focused on news rather than investing.
