We are so proud to share our first Invested Faith Impact Report. It’s hard to believe we now have 13 Fellows, in 9 different states, doing the hard work of healing the world. This inaugural Impact Report offers a glimpse into the progress Invested Faith has made in the past year and offers a generous helping of hope, not only for our Fellows and the positive impact they are making on the world, but for the future and mission of our churches and institutions - who now have a progressive option for sending their witness forward.

As it turns out, God is feeling the need for making things right just as much, if not more, than we are. The prophet says that our perpetual disregard of God’s way is wearying to the Divine. In other words, God is getting sick of us, and frankly I don’t blame her. “But listen and look!”, the prophet tells us. Even with the despair of the situation, God has not given up on making things right; God is sending a sign, an invitation to turn again to the work of hope and wholeness.

Now that we know this idea works, it’s time to get serious about building a fund that can have a significant impact in the community of faith-rooted entrepreneurs.

Church is changing! Can your church adapt? Here are four qualities your church needs to successfully navigate the changing times.

If your worshipping community is facing hard decisions that have been long-coming but accelerated by the global pandemic, you already know that fear of loss can lead to dissension and even more painful decline. It’s tempting to give in to a theology of scarcity, scrambling to piece together some solution that only prolongs the inevitable, and in the end facing a loss that is compounded by feelings of failure. If this is the reality that your community is facing, it’s important to recognize that you are not alone. Invested Faith offers some new ideas and, more importantly, life-giving hope.
