of committed Christians want their investments to reflect their values.
Many
investors are not aware that faith-based investment approaches are available.
WHY IT MATTERS
Would you want your investments supporting what you pray against?
Many Christians may not be aware of biblically responsible investing options. Certain broad-market funds may include companies that some faith-based investors find objectionable.
Biblically Responsible Investing seeks to address those concerns. We are stewards, not owners — and how you deploy God’s money is worship, not just math.
HOW BRI WORKS
Three ways your money can honor God
BRI isn’t just about what you avoid. It is a strategy designed to align investments with certain biblical values.
1
SCREEN OUT
Avoid
Thoughtfully screen out companies whose primary business conflicts with biblical values, such as abortion, pornography, and addiction.
FOR EXAMPLE, WE’D SCREEN OUT
A drug manufacturer whose revenue includes abortifacient medications
A casino and sports-betting operator
A hotel chain that still sells in-room adult video
A tobacco and vape company marketing to new users
2
LEAN IN
Affirm
Invest with conviction in companies that serve people, strengthen families, and reflect biblical values in how they operate.
FOR EXAMPLE, WE’D LOOK FOR
A medical-device maker restoring mobility after injury
A company bringing clean water and food to underserved regions
An employer known for family-friendly wages and benefits
A builder of affordable housing in growing communities
3
SPEAK UP
Advocate
Use shareholder engagement to be a positive voice for biblical values where business decisions are made.
FOR EXAMPLE, THAT LOOKS LIKE
Voting your proxy to pull adult content from hotel rooms
Asking a retailer to publish a forced-labor policy
Pressing a tech board on child-safety protections
Backing directors who take those commitments seriously
Examples describe the kinds of businesses these screens flag or favor. They are illustrative only — not statements about, or recommendations of, any specific company.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Answers before you even ask
Will you make me feel bad about what I currently own?
No. Most people have never been shown what sits inside their funds. The review is educational and judgment-free; you decide what, if anything, you want to change.
Will I sacrifice returns by investing biblically?
Any screening approach changes the opportunity set, so results can differ from broad-market strategies. Biblical alignment does not guarantee better or worse performance. We build diversified portfolios around your goals, risk tolerance, time horizon, and convictions.
What exactly is the “What Do I Really Own?” Review?
Bring a recent statement from a 401(k), IRA, or brokerage account. In a complimentary meeting, we’ll look inside the funds together, identify potential conflicts, discuss a values-aligned alternative, and give you a one-page summary to keep.
Do I have to move all my accounts to get started?
No. You can begin with a conversation or review, and the DIY and Essential paths do not require ongoing portfolio management. We’ll explain your choices clearly and let you move at your own pace.
Do I have to be a Christian to work with you?
No. We welcome people and families from every background. Biblically Responsible Investing is available for those who want their financial decisions to reflect these convictions.
We don’t live near Newington — can we still work with you?
Yes. We meet in person on the New Hampshire Seacoast and by video with clients elsewhere, subject to applicable registration and licensing requirements.
