We have a responsibility to consider how profits are made, not just how much profit is made. These words, said by Donald Simmons, a financial expert since 1987, are the foundation behind The Steward Investor Masterclass. This 10-week course is designed to support individuals on their investment journeys, encouraging them to follow a path that leads to leaving an eternal positive impact.
To provide targeted solutions, Donald curated three courses: for everyone, for accredited investors and financial advisors, and for churches. After completing a simple registration process on the website, all individuals will be one step closer to finding the answer to one of the most crucial questions mused by Donald: How to steward the earthly possessions given by God in a way that betters the world?
The first course is dedicated to all those who desire to grow their investment portfolio while following Biblical values that fuel human flourishment. During The Steward Investor Masterclass, participants will have an opportunity to traverse through the chapters of Donald’s The Steward Investor book, a comprehensive guide on how to fuse God’s message with profitable endeavors. Surrounded by a supportive setting of a virtual group discussion, aspiring and seasoned investors will learn practical examples of others implementing faith-driven strategies, converse with industry experts, and encourage each other to reshape the world by following Jesus’ word.
The Gold Standard Masterclass for accredited investors will open the doors for practitioners to implement the Glory of God across local, global, and regional communities through their pre-tax, after-tax, and charitable portfolios. For churches, The Steward Investor Masterclass offers a unique chance to encourage church-goers to make investments illuminated by faith and support those companies that display Biblical values.
Though each masterclass is personalized to the needs of the audience, all of them shift the narrative toward enforcing faith across private equity and venture capital and aligning Biblical values with publicly traded stocks, mutual funds, ETFs, and more.
After navigating the nuances of ethical investing for nearly 40 years, Donald leveraged his broad expertise and passion to enrich the masterclass through the process of delineation between investing and charity. In that process, he strives to showcase that investments, due to their sustainability and generating a continuous income that can support humane causes, are a more futuristic choice than charity.
Among examples used to illustrate the masterclass’ mission is the conversation around apple orchards in Ethiopia. Donald adds, “Even though they are creating hundreds of jobs, we believe that investing in this project more can transform Ethiopia from a net importer of apples to a net exporter. Yes, the improved economics are rewarding, but the lives we can transform are even better.”
For Donald, The Steward Investor Masterclass is an opportunity for all ethical investors to delve deeper into the philosophy of his book. With the masterclass, Donald hopes to spread awareness about faith-driven investing, attract like-minded clients, and showcase the many-faceted benefits of investing ethically.
“Some of our clients can’t believe it when they see the results,” adds Donald. “I’m not surprised; after all, it’s not often you hear about someone providing safe water for thousands of people while generating a 9% ROI. The Steward Investor Masterclass proves that it is possible to do both at the same time. There is a movement of God’s people who want to steward divine resources to leave an eternal impact. Are you ready to join?”
