Robin’s story is inspiring and the work Eventide does should be elevated for the good it is endeavoring to put into the world by influencing producers of good over the profit motives of those who pollute the world with unjust and ungodly products and services. I encourage those who are early in their journey of investing to read and apply these concepts in support of works that bring joy and compassion to the world.

short, but very thoughtful and biblical argument for the value of faith based investing as a way to participate in Gods plan and contribute to the flourishing of humanity. love eventide and appreciate robin john’s mission, story, and posture. every christian should read!

[Zach Forehand]

Every pastor should read and recommend this book to congregants. Every financial advisor should read and recommend this book to clients and business partners. And anyone who invests any amount of money - whether in retirement accounts, college savings plans, or individual funds - should read this book to think about how their dollars can and should be used to promote human flourishing. For Christians, the call is nothing less than to honor God and love our neighbors through investing.
