Why Most Christians Don’t Know Where Their Money Goes

A conversation with Christian financial advisor Robin John on faith, stewardship, and investing with purpose

Many Christians think carefully about generosity. We tithe, we give, and we support causes close to our hearts. But far fewer of us pause to ask a deeper question: What happens to our money after we invest it?

In the first episode of Season Five of God-Sized Stories, I sat down with Christian financial advisor and author Robin John to talk about his book, The Good Investor, and the often-overlooked intersection between faith and investing. It’s a conversation that gently challenges the idea that investing is morally neutral and invites believers to think more intentionally about stewardship, impact, and purpose.

Robin shares how our financial decisions—especially long-term investments—can shape industries, influence communities, and either align with or drift away from the values we profess as followers of Christ. Rather than focusing solely on profit, he offers a broader, more biblical vision of investing—one that considers people, justice, and long-term flourishing.

This interview isn’t about quick financial strategies or market predictions. It’s about asking better questions. Questions like: Does my money reflect God’s heart? Am I stewarding what He’s entrusted to me with wisdom and intention? And can investing be another way to love my neighbor?

If you’ve ever felt tension between faith and finances—or wondered how to bring the two into better alignment—this conversation will encourage you to pause, reflect, and think more deeply.
