The Solution: Part One

from Idle Treasure: a Christian response to the wealth sitting in donor advised funds · host Courtney Markley

What are possible solutions to the DAF dilemma?  And, how should Christians be responding to this Idle Treasure? Some obstacles to generosity are practical, some are relational, and others are spiritual. In Part One of the Idle Treasure finale, we walk through two practical, concrete tools that can change the trajectory of your giving: a financial finish line and a sunset strategy. We hear from one financial advisor who put a cap on his personal spending to free up more funds for giving, which resulted in an interesting new dynamic with his clients.We also meet someone who ran a private foundation and developed a strategic plan to give away all the money, which led to their most fruitful years in philanthropy.If you’re using a DAF, leading a foundation, advising clients, or just trying to follow Jesus with your money, this conversation is an invitation to rest in enoughness and take the next faithful step. If you wish to support the show, kindly subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a rating and review so more people can join the conversation.Idle Treasure is sponsored by the Center for Financial Discipleship.
