Описание: Ron Blue is a venerated pioneer in the field of Christ-centered financial planning and a luminary in the greater generosity movement. With a storied career spawning the establishment of the 56th largest CPA firm in the nation, and a financial advisory firm now with over $60 billion in assets, Ron has impacted countless lives through a unique blend of financial acumen and spiritual wisdom.



After rooting his own advisory firm, Ronald Blue Trust, in a biblical framework for financial planning, Ron went on to found Kingdom Advisors, a network of over 3,000 kingdom-minded financial professionals. Today, Kingdom Advisors provides comprehensive training and certification to help financial practices of all kinds solidly integrate their faith and financial advice.



Ron is also co-founder of the National Christian Foundation, which carries a similar mission to inspire and empower Christians to deeper generosity and effectiveness in their giving. Ron shared countless stories of generosity of all flavors as well as a unique picture of the development of the modern generosity movement over the last several decades.



Topics include:


• How can faith and financial planning be integrated in a meaningful way?


• Why is a financial finish line such a powerful tool?


• How do you introduce a new person to the idea of a finish line?


• How should someone think about legacy and inheritance from a biblical standpoint?


• How can parents pass on a spirit of generosity to their children?


QUOTES TO REMEMBER

• We help people manage their finances so they have more to give away.


• They don’t know how fine they’re doing and they don’t know how much they can give.


• If you want to give away a million dollars, I can help you do that.


• You can make good financial decisions using good biblical wisdom.


• Tithing is just the beginning point of giving.


• We get great joy from giving nondeductible gifts. The deduction is irrelevant.


• The more generous we’ve been, the more generous we tend to become.


• You can’t take someone somewhere you haven’t been.


• Generosity is symptomatic of transformation.


• When you say that God owns it, that is a life-changing decision.


• If you don’t have a goal, you’ll never get there. Where is it that you would like to end up?


• If you’re dependent on your money for security, you don’t have security.


• It’s really out of assets that great giving occurs.


• If I love my children equally, I will treat them unequally (regarding inheritance).


• Do your giving while you’re living so you’re knowing where it’s going.


• People give to where they have relationships and where they can share vision.


• Kids learn to manage money by managing money.
