The Faith Driven Entrepreneur is an informal initiative formed from the experiences of a few dozen of us that are committed to our faith, and who believe that work can be one of the great places to make a difference. We are just getting started, but our mission is to help entrepreneurs who are hard at work on the trail, who are often tired, exhausted, under resourced, and confused. They need rest, support, guidance and provisions, as they get ready to head back out on their journey.

The world is full of problems. We don’t have to look far to find darkness. Entrepreneurs, Investors are the unique and most trusted problem solvers of our time. Yet most are disengaged and lukewarm. Trillions of capital is stuck. Billions has made it halfway there but is sitting on the sidelines and parked in donor advised funds.What if you bring together the capital of high capacity investors and philanthropists, merge it with the movement stewardship and content engine of Faith Driven … build a platform of collaborative giving and investing opportunities led by proven leaders … Leverage the combined influence of athletes, musicians who are increasingly looking to use their platform to solve problems and get involved in entrepreneurship and investing?The Solving the World’s Greatest Problems initiative is starting to pull all these voices together. Our mission is to “Solve the World’s Greatest Problems by issuing the battle cry and bringing entrepreneurs and investors to the front lines of the fight.”We think the leveraged effect of coming together can bring the velocity, scale and “getting upstream” that makes people proud of the home team, captures the momentum of “winning” and draws others off the sidelines.

Christ followers are responsible for stewarding trillions of investment capital. For many believers there's a disconnect between their faith and their investing. Too often we don't bring the same "one pocket" approach to our investing that we do with the rest of our lives. But we're seeing growing activity that gives us hope. A growing number of Investors, Fund Managers and leaders believe that God owns it all and that he cares deeply about why and how we steward his investments. We believe there is an opportunity to shape and accelerate the development of a Faith Driven Investing (FDI) movement.There is a great opportunity to ‘stock the shelves’ of a Faith Driven Investing ‘store’ with excellent Gospel-centered investment funds that focus on public and private equities, real estate, concessionary capital, debt, and other alternative investment vehicles. As investors, we believe that Transformation Happens in the Marketplace and that Capital = Influence. And we believe that Christ-followers can deliver Biblical impact as they lead the process of building and stewarding companies.

A decade of the hit show Shark Tank has fueled rapid growth and redefined the idea for a generation now. Today, there are 582 million people building and taking risks. Estimates say there may be as many as 180 million Christian entrepreneurs in the world. We're all likely to go pro in something other than sports. So what if we spent a fraction of the time we otherwise spend on practices preparing for how we might invest in the rest of our lives?This course in its global community is about stepping into a call to create. That's been with us from the beginning. God put man and woman in the garden to create, build and care. Thousands of years later, we see that in our DNA from the first building blocks of Legos to lemonade stands or the creator economy.It's more than just hard work, ambition, passion and perseverance. It's starting with an understanding that we partner with the Almighty God. Not placing our faith in ourselves, but understanding We partner with Him to chase the dream and honor him more than any other time in history. Side hustles and startups attract the next generation of leaders to consider their work and careers through new lenses of possibility.Through incredible teaching and biblical truth from friends like David Platt, Coby Cotton, Lecrae, Jessica Kim and Jeremy Lin and a dozen entrepreneurs from around the world we explore this journey as we pursue God's command to care for people in the world around us.
